Rami, Following the recent discussions on the mailing list regarding the responsibility of the VIF driver, seems that it should be very thin and network provisioning should be handled by Quantum Plugin Agent as in OpenvSwitch and LinuxBridge plugins. I have similar need to get attributes for the attached network/ port and seems that the way to do it is via API extension. You can see the details in the following mailing thread: https://lists.launchpad.net/openstack/msg12716.html
Hope this helps, Irena From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rami Cohen Sent: Tuesday, June 05, 2012 1:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Netstack] Nova & Quantum integration Hi, Is there any mechanism to pass some parameters from Quantum Manager to the Quantum VIF driver (that is part of the Nova compute)? In particular, I saw that when Nova network calls Quantum API (create and attach ports) it ignores the return values sent from the quantum manager, so there is no formal way to reflect them back to the Nova compute. Thanks, RamiC
