Pranav Saxena commented on CLOUDSTACK-2836: ------------------------------------------- The idea of dropdown was requested as a part of this feature and it gets populated with the VLAN ranges present in the API response and hence Jessica did this change . The earlier idea was to have two text fields where the drawback is that the user is expected to remember which part/sub-part of the VLAN range is supposed to be dedicated . If the requirement it to change it back to two text fields , then please confirm it . > [UI][Dedicated Resources : Guest Vlans per tenant] The new UI limits the > feature > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-2836 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-2836 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: Bug > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: UI > Affects Versions: 4.2.0 > Reporter: Abhinav Roy > Assignee: Jessica Wang > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 4.2.0 > > > The new UI which has a drop down for dedicating guest vlans has the following > limitations : > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > 1. Even after a range is dedicated to some account, it is shown in the drop > down menu. > 2. The feature enables us to dedicate a sub-range of the vlan range also but > this UI limits that feature , > Ex- If there is a vlan range V1 - V10 available then the admin is allowed to > dedicate V1 - V5 or V6 - V8 also to any account but the UI limits this > feature. We can only dedicate the full range with this UI > 3. If there is a vlan range available like V1 - V5 and then admin adds a > range V6 - V9 then the new UI will allow us only to dedicate V1 - V9 and we > can't dedicate the sub ranges. > 4. When we add a new range then it is not immediately listed in the dropdown > menu, for that to be shown we need to refresh the browser page and then go > all the way to that location and then start dedicating. > NOTE : All these issues were not there in the previous UI where the admin had > to manually enter the range and then dedicate, so can we please revert to the > previous UI and avoid all these issues? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
