Public bug reported: some of l3 flavors provide extensions. eg. "dvr" flavor provides "dvr" extension. eg. "midonet" flavor would provide "fip64" extension.
for in-tree stuff (dvr, ha, etc) extensions are currently hardcoded in L3RouterPlugin.supported_extension_aliases. user requests are validated runtime. (_ensure_driver_supports_request) on the other hand, for out-of-tree stuff (eg. midonet/fip64) currently there's no way for l3 flavors to express support. while we can add all of possible extensions to L3RouterPlugin.supported_extension_aliases, probably it's more appropriate to introduce a way for l3 flavors to provide extensions, which can be used by both of in-tree and out-of-tree flavors. ** Affects: neutron Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: rfe ** Tags added: rfe -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
