Hi Dumitru,

What I had in mind was something like ic-adv-address-set option in the NB 
port-group entity. If that is set to true, the internally generated address-set 
for the port-group would be advertised. Similar for VIPs. If I understand 
correctly you are also saying the same.

Thanks,
Sragdhara

But in your implementation you only advertise address sets that have
NB.Address_Set.options:ic-adv=true.

If we really want to advertise the implicit SB Address_Sets how would
you envision doing that?  They don't have a NB counterpart.  How would
users opt-in for their advertisement?

A global option seems easy but not so nice.  So I guess we'll need
options to opt-in for the following types of implicit address sets:
- port group v4/v6 ones
- LB VIPs address sets (would this be per load balancer or per switch?)

I'll think some more about it when reviewing your v2 patch.  Let's
continue the discussion there.

Thanks,
Dumitru
