<div dir="ltr">Hi Ian,<div><br></div><div>I think your VLAN trunking capability proposal can be a good thing, so the user can request a Neutron network that can trunk VLANs without caring about detailed information regarding which VLANs to pass. This could be used for use cases there user wants to pass VLANs between endpoints on a L2 network etc.</div>
<div><br></div><div>For the use case there a VM wants to connect to several "normal" Neutron networks using VLANs, I would prefer a solution that did not require a Neutron trunk network. Possibly by connecting a L2-gateway directly to the Neutron 'vNic' port, or some other solution. IMHO it would be good to map VLAN to Neutron network as soon as possible.</div>

Hi Ian.<br>
<br>
I can't see your proposal. Can you please make it public viewable?<br>

</div></div>I'm not against trunking.<br>
I'm trying to understand what requirements need "trunk network" in<br>
the figure 1 in addition to "L2 gateway" directly connected to VM via<br>
"trunk port".<br></blockquote></div></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">No problem, just putting the information there for you.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br>-- <br></font></span></div>
