Re: [Openstack] [Openstack :: Folsom] Quantum Network Node setup
Hi, Iam having essex setup [where we dont have Quantum Network] and now if we want to have Folsom setup and if we dont want to use L3-Agent and Quantum router for DNAT of Floating-IPs. How can we achieve this with Folsom.? As well i want to understand the real time deployment of Teanant VMs for Public Access using Public -IPs, I hope it can be achieved in Folsom setup as well. Can any one give me inputs on this. Just curious to understand the quantum router use case apart from NAT,iptable rules any other advantages we have in real time deployments. please share your understanding and experience. Thanks in advance. regards, balaji On Mon, Nov 12, 2012 at 6:17 AM, gong yong sheng gong...@linux.vnet.ibm.com wrote: On 11/10/2012 10:06 PM, balaji patnala wrote: Hi Yong, I downloaded the Quantum Architecture in Folsom Powerpoint prepared by you and found that in slide-10: lL3-agent lTo implement floating Ips and other L3 features, such as NAT *lOne per network* Can you elaborate on the comment 'one per network' for L3-Agent. # If use_namespaces is set as False then the agent can only configure one router. # This is done by setting the specific router_id. # router_id = # Each L3 agent can be associated with at most one external network.

Re: [Openstack] [Openstack :: Folsom] Quantum Network Node setup
Does anyone know how to configure l3 agent and dhcp agent when you have a router for each of your tenants ! i am loosing internet connection each time i don't assign a value to #router_id in the l3_agent.ini file !

Re: [Openstack] [Openstack :: Folsom] Quantum Network Node setup
Hi Balaji, I am not sure I understand your questions. I think that with clients your referring to python-novaclient and/or python-quantumclient. If that is correct, those are merely applications that provide users with tools for access the respective endpoints. These applications are usually not part of the server-side architecture. It sounds pretty natural to me then each tenant will run its own client application, which could be python-quantumclient, something based on it, or something completely different that interfaces with the quantum API. Similar reasoning applies to nova, and all the other Openstack projects IMHO.
