We would like to propose a solution to remove this restriction through a configuration option. This approach would not conflict with the present behavior where it is not possible to create multiple provider networks with the same VLAN id.

Hi Vinay:

This problem seems straightforward enough, though currently you are right
in that we don’t allow multiple Neutron networks to have the same segmentation
ID. I’ve added myself as approver for this BP and look forward to further
discussions of this before and during the upcoming Summit!

Thanks!
Kyle
