Thanks Shinobu. I still don’t understand how this resource will be managed as it is outside of openstack.

Is it possible to achieve using ceilometer pollster? If yes, I have few questions. 1. From where do I get the resource ID for the device. (Since router/switch is outside of OpenStack) 2. I am planning to get the credentials of the device from ml2/neutron conf. Will it be possible to read the conf from ceilometer service. 3. To create a new metric is it enough to create entry in /etc/ceilometer/pipeline.yaml? Regards, Pradeep. S
