Hi Carlos, We have just started looking at the same issues you have mentioned. Please follow the email thread started by me earlier today ([openstack-dev] [neutron][policy] Using network services with network policies). We will be spending more time on these topics during our upcoming weekly IRC calls as well.
Best, -Mohammad From: Carlos Gonçalves <m...@cgoncalves.pt> To: openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org, Date: 02/12/2014 01:43 PM Subject: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] Group Policy questions Hi, I’ve a couple of questions regarding the ongoing work on Neutron Group Policy proposed in [1]. 1. One of the described actions is redirection to a service chain. How do you see BPs [2] and [3] addressing service chaining? Will this BP implement its own service chaining mechanism enforcing traffic steering or will it make use of, and thus depending on, those BPs? 2. In the second use case presented in the BP document, “Tired application with service insertion/chaining”, do you consider that the two firewalls entities can represent the same firewall instance or two running and independent instances? In case it’s a shared instance, how would it support multiple chains? This is, HTTP(s) traffic from Inet group would be redirected to the firewall and then passes through the ADC; traffic from App group with destination DB group would also be redirected to the very same firewall instance, although to a different destination group as the chain differs. Thanks.
