Somewhat related: Sharing of networks between tenants has also come up in the 
discussions on trunk support; One use case there is , a VM VIF is plugged to 
multiple networks at the same time and packets are VLAN tagged (visible to the 
VM) to separate those networks. For usage with service VMs it is desirable that 
those networks can belong to different tenants.

BP is here:https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/vlan-aware-vms
There is also a thread 'VLAN aware VMs' on this email list about this.

Thanks,
Bob

Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] Shared network between specific tenants, 
but not all tenants?

This blueprint is related (the concept stands for any network, not just 
externals): 
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/sharing-model-for-external-networks

You can read the blueprint and spec pages for some context.
Bottom line is that it would be great to have some feedback on whether you 
reckon this:
i) a RBAC problem, which should be enhanced in order to "delegate" access to 
network resources thus enabling a tenant to select with which tenants a network 
should be shared
ii) a network topology problem, meaning that we don't really care about whether 
there's a single shared network segment or not, as long as there is a 
possibility to provide a CIDR which is routable by different tenants.

Regards,
Salvatore

I also have tenants asking for this :-). I'm interested to see a blueprint.

OK, cool, glad to know I'm not the only one with tenants asking for this :)

Looking forward to a possible blueprint on this.

Hi Neutron devs,

Are there any plans to support networks that are shared/routed only
between certain tenants (not all tenants)?

Thanks,
-jay
