Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] Campus Network Blueprint
Hi Filipe: I disagree your ml2-external-port BP It is unsuitable to connect multiple l2 networks directly, there may be ip conflict, dhcp conflict and other problems. although neutron dhcp agent won't respond dhcp request from unknown source, an external dhcp may respond vm dhcp request. If we move an external port form a network to another network, how can we ensure that the arp cache is cleared. And it will aslo make l2-population bp ( https://blueprints.launchpad.net/quantum/+spec/l2-population ) more difficault. Our l2 forwarding works better if the device knows the whole topology of the network, but the external part is totally unknown. So, I suggest a layer-3 solution, where the out world connects to vms via l3 agent. Thank you for sharing the idea Regards ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
[openstack-dev] [Neutron] Campus Network Blueprint
Hi all, Just published a blueprint for some work I'm starting right now. I would appreciate if someone can take a look and give some comments. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/campus-network Thank you Filipe Manco http://about.me/fmanco ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev

To be honest, the integration with Neutron and the ML2 was what took most of the time when writing the blueprint, but although I talk about it on the blueprint I still not sure about the best way to do it. About the concept of segments I don't think they fit. From what I understand a segment, in the context of ML2, represents part of the virtual network that uses some technology to connect a set of VMs, so if I delete a segment those VMs will loose connectivity. In the context of my blueprint a segment (or cSegment as I called it) represents a domain where I can create virtual links across a set of nodes. If I delete a cSegment that doesn't mean any VM will loose connectivity, what will happen is that the network is remapped and the traffic will cross another cSegment or another set of cSegments. I think what you've mentioned here is valid, yes, and is a slight deviation between the way segments in ML2 work on your cSegments. It looks like we would need to add your new constructs into the ML2 API to achieve what you're looking for. Something that I would like you (or other guys from ML2) to comment is how to integrate new operations (beyond the ones related with the base data model) in the ML2 interfaces. The MechanismDriver interface supports operations on ports and networks, but as you can see I have new entities. My idea is that there should be no changes to the original interfaces, because this are specific to a type of network. What do you think? I'll have a look at this tomorrow and give you more detailed feedback. If you want, you can join us in the ML2 meeting at 1400UTV meeting on #openstack-meeting and I'll save some time at the end of the meeting to discuss your blueprint. Thanks! Kyle It would help me if you have the time to take a look at the blueprint and comment on the ML2 parts. Thanks for your help!
