Hi Ravi,<br>
In Grizzly the L3 agent makes use of the RPC to interface with the
Quantum plugin. In Folsom the L3 agent makes use of the Quantum
client API to retrieve the l3 data.<br>
Yes, there is keystone authentication. Can you please look at:<br>

This is via the parameters in the INI file:<br>

<div>I was going through OVS agent code, found that it does not
authenticate with keystone, which I feel is a security
concern.</div>

The code that you are referring to is most probably for the l2 agent
interface.<br>
