Silvano,
This is not exactly a help you've asked about. But something along the
similar concept, we've requested a feature known as IP POOL.
As an example, you have several networks either guest or public that can
be put into 1 large pool. In case network x runs out of IP space, you
would get an IP from another alike network.
Example:
Guest Net 1 - has 20 IPs
Guest Net 2 - has 20 IPs
If we can aggregate both Guest Networks into 1 pool, the request is
executed against a pool ip network and not specific network. If Guest
Net 2 runs out of IP, you would get an IP from Guest Net 1. Another
possibility would be to balance the ip pools requests through round
robin or consecutive allocation algorithms.
On the low level, there must be an API implementation to show number of
IPs available per Guest Network.
Is that similar to what you are trying to do?
Thanks

Hi guys,
At Globo.com we are working in a load balancer plugin for Cloudstack
with a network api developed internally. This api manages shared networks
and is working with cloudstack 4.3 (as a network guru implementation). Our
load balancers are in a different network, so to implement a network
element of load balancer, first I need to acquire an IP from the load
balancers network. What is the best way to do this?
I looked at portable IPs and that makes sense to me, but I would prefer
a solution where my guru can give this IP to the network. Is there any
other way?
Thanks in advance,
Silvano Buback
