[openstack-dev] [savanna] neutron and private networks

This approach looks good.

But I'd like to outline an issue people might hit in real-world production
installations:
Let's imagine OpenStack is installed in HA mode. There are several
controllers,
they run Savanna and Q3 services in HA mode. The problem is that active
Savanna
service should run on the same host with active Q3 service. Otherwise
proposed
approach will not work. It will require some advanced configuration in
HA software - Savanna should always run on the same host with Q3.
