[openstack-dev] [Neutron] L3 agent external networks

2013-12-03 Thread Sylvain Afchain 
Hi,

I was reviewing this patch (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/52884/) from Oleg 
and I thought that is a bit tricky to deploy an l3 agent with automation tools 
like Puppet since you have to specify the uuid of a network that doesn't 
already exist. It may be better to bind a l3 agent to an network by a CIDR 
instead of a uuid since when we deploy we know in advance which network address 
will be on which l3 agent.

I wanted also remove the L3 agent limit regarding to the number of external 
networks, I submitted a patch as WIP (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/59359/) 
for that purpose and I wanted to have the community opinion about that :)

Please let me know what you think.

Best regards,

Sylvain

I really like this idea - there is no need to limit an agent to a single
external network unless the external bridge is being used. See my
comments on the patch.
