The major reason to use private address space is that there is likely a lot more of it than you have in public address space. if you have effectively unlimited fixed_ip space, you can give each project a lot. For example, we give each project a /23. While a user could potentially still run out of address space on our system, it hasn't happened yet with our workload. -nld _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
