Hello Everyone,

As you might know, allowed address pairs in neutron is an extension to
allow port
to have more then a pair of MAC-IP addresses assigned to it.
This is useful for cases of where few VM's need to share virtual MAC/IP,
like
for VRRP, Load balancing, NFV use cases and so on...
(Aaron who implemented it as far as i know can maybe elaborate)

Its not urgent but i believe that we can support this in Neutron OVN (at
least for L2)
By adding all the MAC addresses configured to a certain logical port.

However, when L3 is going to be introduced, we cant just also add all the
IP addresses, because security wise this means that a certain IP must be
assigned to a certain MAC address (please correct me if i am wrong here)

Just wanted to put this here, so when L3 design is finalized these
connections
are also taken care of in OVN for port security.

Please share any comments/thoughts.

Thanks
Gal.
