** [tickets:#2489] clm: Make it possible to select what address to present in
the CLM node**
**Status:** review
**Milestone:** 5.17.10
**Created:** Thu Jun 08, 2017 11:11 AM UTC by Anders Widell

A simpler solution for the problem described in ticket [#2479] is to let the
user configure what address CLM shall show in the saClmNodeCurrAddress
attribute. The following use cases will all be covered by this simpler solution:
* OpenSAF is configured to use IP, but the application is using TIPC and needs
to know the TIPC address of the node. Or vice versa.
* Both the application and OpenSAF are configured to use IP, but later on we
wish to re-configure OpenSAF to use TIPC, *without* affecting the application
or exposing this change in the saClmNodeCurrAddress attribute.
* Both the application and OpenSAF are configured to use IP (and the same
network), but later on we wish to introduce a separate IP network dedicated to
OpenSAF internal communication. The application is supposed to continue using
the same IP network as before, and is *not* allowed to use the new network
which is dedicated to OpenSAF internal communication only.
As shown in these use cases, the application is really only interested in
knowing one address for each node. The problem we need to solve is that a node
can have many addresses and we need to be able to select which one to present
through the CLM interface.
