I think I agree with this. Let's not change the API at all to begin with. I do think this means that the current API should work with or without segments. I'm not sure that the current approach of doing scheduling for segments completely independently of scheduling for networks works for this. Does it? >>Do you feel like it'd be beneficial to show what segment a dhcp agent is >> bound to in the API? > > Probably useful in some cases.
