nvazquez opened a new pull request #2281: CLOUDSTACK-10102: New network type 
(L2)
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2281
 
 
   JIRA Ticket: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-10102
   Feature Specification: 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=74680920
   
   ### Introduction
   This feature allows CloudStack administrators to create layer 2 networks on 
CloudStack. As these networks are purely layer 2, they don't require IP 
addresses or Virtual Router, only VLAN is necessary (provided by administrator 
or assigned by CloudStack). Also, network services should be handled 
externally, e.g. DNS, DHCP, as they are not provided by L2 networks.
   As a consequence, a new Guest Network type is created within CloudStack: L2
   
   ### Description
   - Network offerings and networks support new guest type: L2.
   - L2 Network offering creation allows administrator to select Specify VLAN 
or let CloudStack assign it dynamically.
   - L2 Network creation allows administrator to specify VLAN tag (if network 
offerings allows it) or simply create network.
   - VM deployments on L2 networks:
      - VMs should not IP addresses or any network service
      - No Virtual Router deployed on network
      - If Specify VLAN = true for network offering, network gets implemented 
using a dynamically assigned VLAN 
   
   ### UI changes
   A new button is added on Networks tab, available for admins, to allow L2 
networks creation
