OVN (Open Virtual Networking) is a new network virtualization project that
brings virtual networking to Open vSwitch.
OVN is now availble to use as a tech preview in oVirt. It is made available
using the oVirt external network providers API, which allows using external
network management software inside environments managed by oVirt.
The integration with OVN will allow users to take advantage of native OVS
support for software defined networks.

The advantages of using OVN:
- ability to use large number of networks with no need for multiple host NICs
  or VLAN use
- ability to set up new network without any changes to the physical infrastructure
- easier to maintain due to centralized management
- good traffic isolation due to Openflow rules
- improved performance over neutron OVS plugin (https://blog.russellbryant.net/2016/12/19/comparing-openstack-neutron-ml2ovs-and-ovn-control-plane/)
