--------------------------------------
Summary: Specifying network interface when associating a floating
IP
Key: JCLOUDS-682
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-682
Project: jclouds
Issue Type: Bug
Components: jclouds-compute
Affects Versions: 1.8.0
Reporter: Udara Liyanage
In a scenario where an instance has multiple network interfaces, associating a
floating ip associate the IP to the first interface(et0) always. There is no
way of specifying the nic where the IP should be allocated to. I started a
discussion on the user list. Please refer to the email with the subject
"Associate floating ip to a specified network interface".
I tried this using Openstack commandline and seems it is working.
neutron floatingip-create ext
neutron floatingip-associate floating_ip-id port-id
However I could not find a way to associate a floating ip to a port using
Jclouds also.
Then starting the instance with the port-id.
Alternatively I tried below which also worked [1]
nova floating-ip-associate --fixed-address=FIXED_IP_ADDRESS INSTANCE_NAME_OR_ID
FLOATING_IP_ADDRESS
I guess there is no counterpart for this in Jclouds also
According to the comment for [2], Jclods does not support this feature yet.
My concern,
Is this feature is in road map of the Jclods development, if yes is there a
specific Jclouds version this will be fixed.
Further if someone could point me to the location of the code to look at, I
could give a try patching this.
