+=============
+
+## Features
+
+- [Integrated July 2016 DPDK release](http://www.dpdk.org/doc/guides/rel_notes/release_16_07.html)
+ - 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.
+ - SIXRD.
+ - SNAT.
+ - VCGN.
+
+- 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)](https://wiki.fd.io/view/NSH_SFC)
+ - Binding for [python](https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Python_API)
+
+- LISP
+ - L2 LISP overlays
+ - Multitenancy
+ - Multihoming
+ - RTR mode
+ - Map-resolver failover algorithm
+
+- Support 64-bit vector lengths, huge shared-memory segments.
+
+- Dynamic IP Feature ordering
+ - IP Features can now specify features they appear before and after
+
+- 16.09 Builds
+ - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Trusty Tahr
+ - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Xenial Xerus
+ - CentOS 7
+ - More information on [VPP wiki](https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Installing_VPP_binaries_from_packages)
+
+- Performance, characterize and document performance for this release
+ [(more information on CSIT page)](https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT)
+
+ - IPv4 and IPv6 Scale - performance tests.
+ - 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)](https://docs.fd.io/vpp/16.09/)
+
+- Resolved all static analysis issues found by Coverity
+ - Beginning of 16.09 cycle: 505 issues.
+ - Release: 0 outstanding issues.
