+This section lists those features that became available in VPP Release 16.09:
+
+* Integrated July 2016 DPDK release
+ - DPDK-vhost is depreciated pending a complete rework of the original integration and addressing of rx performance deltas
+ - Patches required for DPDK 16.07:
+ + Correctly setting the Packet Type in the IGB, IXGBE and i40e drivers
+ + Correctly setting checksum in the i40e driver
+ + NXP DPAA2 PMD Driver
+ + rte_delay (yield) functionality
+* Add “in tree” plugins:
+ - IPv6 ILA
+ - iOAM
+ - Load Balancer
+ - SNAT
+* High-performance (line-rate) “neutron like” L4 port-filtering
+* API refactoring - addressing some of the issues around JVPP bindings
+ - Accommodating plugins (e.g. NSH_SFC)
+ - Binding for python
+* LISP
+ - L2 LISP overlays
+ - Multitenancy

+ + Bidirectional 10k/100k/1M flows
+ + 64B,570B, 1518B,9000B packet sizes
+ - IPv6 iACL - performance
+ + DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with IPv6 routing, two static IPv6 /64 routes and IPv6 iAcl security whitelist ingress /64 filter entries applied on links
+ + TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv6 header and generated payload
+ + MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces
+ - L2XC VXLANoIPv4 - performance
+ + DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with L2 cross-connect. VXLAN tunnels are configured between L2XCs on DUT1 and DUT2
+ + TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and generated payload
+ + MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces
+* Documentation
+ - Autogenerated CLI documentation
+ - Using doxygen to automate API/Node documentation
+ - (available online)
+* Resolved all static analysis issues found by Coverity
