Murali, some comments:
1) "During network design phase of network creation, 'Direct network
Guru' which designs the shared networks shall setup the network to be in
Network.State.Allocated if shared network is being created in advanced
zone and with L4-L7 services enabled"
Can you explain why? Allocated state means that the Vlan and CIDR for the
network will be re-calculated on every network imeplement. Setup state
means that the Vlan will stay with the network for its lifecycle, as well
as the network CIDR. If you are not planning to recalculate the CIDR on
each network re-implement, then Setup is your initial and the only one
state.
If the only one thing you want to do during this face - prepare your
external devices - then you should use prepare() instead (we call it when
setup the network)
2) associateIpAddress
With the current logic we always check if the owner of the guest network
and the owner of ip are the same. It should be relaxed for Shared networks
case.
3) listPublicIpAddresses API shall be enhanced to take network ID
corresponding to the shared network in the advanced zone. When listAll
API parameter is set to true, API shall return list of the public IP's
associated with the network which caller is authorised to see.
When listAll API parameter is set to false then API shall return the
list of public IP's owned by the caller and associated with the network.
We already have "associatedNetworkId" parameter in listPublicIpAddresses
call. Just make sure it accepts Shared networkId.
