[openstack-dev] [Nova] Bug #741626 - FLAGS.fixed_range is silly

I think it would be nice to take care of this bug as it would be fairly
simple to fix and offer much more flexibility in allowing for
non-contiguous fixed_ranges. In order to be backwards compatible with
CONF.fixed_range I was thinking of adding a new config option, say
CONF.use_dynamic_fixed_range, which if set to True would figure out the
CIDRs to set up for NAT by looking at the networks on the current network
host and then setting up the NATs for each. It would default to False such
that existing behavior would not change. Does this sound worthwhile? Is
this something that would be eligible for Grizzly or is this too much too
late to be allowed in for Grizzly?

Thanks,

Nate
