for a new ml2 plugin I would like to pass over some data from neutron to<br>
nova on port creation and update (exploiting port binding extension<br>
[1]). For my prototype I thought of using one of the following response<br>
dictionaries to add my information:<br>
<br>
- binding:vif_details<br>
- binding:profile<br>
<br>
The API ref describes these attributes (port create / port update - both<br>
response) as dictionaries, but without restricting the key-value pairs<br>
or naming a defined number [1].<br></blockquote><div>binding:profile is an input dictionary, that should tell neutron how to bind the port. </div><div>binding:vif_details is an output dictionary that should provide nova (or other) with enough details to plug the port properly.</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
I've also seen some other ml2 plugins enriching those fields with unique<br>
data. So I assuming this is not considered as an API change, isn't it?<br>
<br>
Important: It's only about the response. The input comes from a<br>
configuration file.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
