* INSTALL.Windows.md: Update the minimum required compiler.Gurucharan Shetty2015-07-231-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | MSVC 2013 update 4 was released in Nov 2014. Its release notes says that it has fixed the problem wherein using designated initializers to initialize unions within structs would fail to compile. Using designated initializers is useful in OVS and so this commit updates the minimum required compiler for Windows.

* netdev-windows: Add ARP lookup and next hop functionality.Alin Serdean2015-05-261-12/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch implements two functionalities needed for an active manager: 1. ARP lookup 2. Next hop The first uses the Windows GetIpNetTable() function: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365956%28v=vs.85%29.aspx The second one uses GetAdaptersAddresses() function: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365915%28v=vs.85%29.aspx Both API's are found in the Iphlpapi library. We need to add this library when compiling. Documentation and appveyor config has been updated to match the use of the new library. Tested using opendaylight.
