Hi Juliano,

 

Just my thought - absolutely, you should; it will be great to have 
complementary ideas reinforcing the discussion. Is there a document available 
to read up on the firewall/dhcp work that you mention? And perhaps, you can 
also have a look at the references mentioned below, to see how your work can 
complement those?

 

Thanks,

~Sumit.

Hi Sumit, 

 

I've been to Essex as well and it was great, aside of the that would be great 
to know if the scope of l3 will be only about routing. We've developed a good 
firewall automation ( focussed on linux firewalls for now ) and dhcp ( which 
sounds like melange will do the work ), so I'd like to know if we should keep 
in mind working on firewall and contribute this code to quantum project :D.

Hi Willian, All,

 

Thanks for your thoughts on this. The discussions around L3 abstractions/API 
have been ongoing for a while now. To be precise, the discussions started 
during the Essex design summit, and we took action items away from the summit 
to work during the past few months.  Subsequently, a fair amount of thought and 
work have gone into this resulting in a blueprint: 
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/quantum/+spec/quantum-l3-api, wiki: 
http://wiki.openstack.org/quantum-l3 and, also a working framework which 
realizes this blueprint: 
https://github.com/CiscoSystems/quantum/tree/int/l3apiframework.

 

There has been good feedback around this from several folks, and I encourage 
others to comment as well so that we can have a good plan going into the summit.

 

Thanks,

~Sumit.

Æ!!

Hi folks,

I just want to start the discussions around the layer 3 on quantum.

We developed a plugin to handle firewalls and dhcps, but reading the melange 
spec I found that melange would handle DHCP too.

For firewall we have an agent to handle rules using python-iptables library on 
a different package installed on the firewall server and we're planning to 
implement routing tables as well.

These are our ideas on L3. What do you have in mind?
