Hi Tomoe,

I don't think we, as a community, have discussed this requirement. In
general, for plugin-specific features, there is always an option to
expose/implement them as extensions. Check the section on API Extensions
here:
http://wiki.openstack.org/QuantumDevelopment

Thanks,
~Sumit.

> Subject: [Netstack] Mac address in quantum port
> 
> Hi everyone,
> 
> I just looked at quantum code and leaned that quantum port doesn't
> care about the mac addresses.
> I think it's true that switch port doesn't necessarily have mac
> address in general, but normally switches learn mac addresses per
> port.
> So I thought it would be useful for some implementation of plugins,
> for example to optimize mac learning, to get mac address as a
> parameter for create port API.

> Was there any related discussion about this? I'd appreciate any
> comments on this.
