<div dir="ltr">Hello all,
<div><br></div><div>Recently i have came across two use cases that having "binding" information, or metadata</div><div>for networks can be useful. (similar to the port binding profile for that matter)</div><div><br></div><div>For example:</div><div><br></div><div>1) In project Kuryr we want to have a binding information which maps the Neutron network</div><div> to docker network (And we might want to do it prior to the docker network being created,</div><div> that is assign a network that is ready to be attached) so this field also needs to be editable</div><div> (just like the port binding profile)</div><div><br></div><div>2) For multi site OpenStack (multi cloud) use cases we might want to share information which</div><div> binds logically same network that is created at each OpenStack cloud site (and hence the ID's</div><div> are different).</div><div> (Something like this could be useful for project Tricircle for example)</div><div><br></div><div>3) Use cases for multi controllers environments? (each controller manage different networks?)</div><div><br></div><div>I believe adding such optional field to the network API is really low risk due to its being optional</div><div>and i believe other use cases can be found to leverage it.</div><div><br></div><div>Feel free to share ideas/comments.</div><div><br></div><div>If there are no strong objections to it, i will add an RFE/Spec to add this ability.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Gal.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>
