Anthony Xu commented on CLOUDSTACK-1043: ---------------------------------------- The limitation that VM cannot be on VPC network and non-VPC network is unnecessary, this limitation can be removed. We don't have time to implement that when VPC was introduced. The limitation that VM cannot be on two VPC networks might be necessary, otherwise , the VM can bypass ACL check. If SG is supported in VPC, that will be another story, then we need to figure out how to represent ACL, SG(both can achieve similar purpose). Migrating a VM from VPC to non-VPC/ network HA is an interesting topic, I don't think CS handle network HA even though it is a good feature to have. From end user perspective, he likes to keep the same network configuration if network HA happens. Network HA is a big topic, which can be handled in hardware level, or CS. If VLAN is used as isolation method, network HA might be difficult, does SDN have kind of HA feature? Nicira?
