I agree, that is my take too. Russell, since you lead the OVN session in Vancouver, would it be possible to include the VLAN-aware-vms BP in that session? Thanks, Bob From: Ian Wells mailto:ijw.ubu...@cack.org.uk>> Reply-To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" mailto

Re: [openstack-dev] [neutron]Anyone looking at support for VLAN-aware VMs in Liberty?

2015-05-11 Thread Bob Melander (bmelande)
Hi Eric, Cisco is also interested in the kind of VLAN trunking feature that your VLAN-aware VM’s BP describe. If this could be achieved in Liberty it’d be great. Perhaps your BP could be brought up during one of the Neutron sessions in Vancouver, e.g., the one on OVN since there seems to be some

Re: [openstack-dev] [neutron] [nfv] VM-based VLAN trunking blueprints

2014-10-24 Thread Bob Melander (bmelande)
What scares me a bit about the “let’s find a common solution for both external devices and VMs” approach is the challenge to reach an agreement. I remember a rather long discussion in the dev lounge in HongKong about trunking support that ended up going in all kinds of directions. I work on imp

Hi Zzelle, Carl and others, We’ve been doing work on a more modular agent whose responsibilities are basically to: 1: apply configurations in devices when Neutron service resources (like Neutron Routers) are created or updated. 2: monitor the health of devices hosting such service resources Our

I agree. With your patch it ought to be possible to make the distributed router a provider type so to me it seems like a good match. Thanks, Bob From: Gary Duan mailto:gd...@varmour.com>> Reply-To: "OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions)" mailto:openstack-dev@lists.opensta

Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] Shared network between specific tenants, but not all tenants?

2013-11-13 Thread Bob Melander (bmelande)
Somewhat related: Sharing of networks between tenants has also come up in the discussions on trunk support; One use case there is , a VM VIF is plugged to multiple networks at the same time and packets are VLAN tagged (visible to the VM) to separate those networks. For usage with service VMs it
