<div>Hi Caitlin,</div><div> </div><div>I need multiple ip address for my Haproxy server.</div><div> </div><div>Here is my senario </div><div> </div><div>I have already running Haproxy Server virtual machine for web load balancing on vSphare with 45 public ip address.

<div> </div><div>We have 6 webservers with only local ip address. These 6 webservers holding all 45 websites. Haproxy just forward the request to local webservers accorindg to DNS.</div><div> </div><div>Now I want the same kind of Haproxy setup on openstack</div>

<br>
In order to properly orchestrate resources you need to distinguish between the server holding that resource<br>
and the IP address used to talk with that server.<br>
<br>
The fact that a server shows up with two IP addresses does not double the number of objects it can store,<br>
or the number of objects that can be assigned to it for storage.<br>
<br>
The OpenStack APIs that I have dealt with the most, storage oriented such as Swift, do not make the<br>
Necessary distinction between resource holder and access identity. But you could determine that by<br>
Examining each API carefully. If you can't tell the difference between a server identity and its network<br>
address, then neither can OpenStack.<br>
<br>
What purpose were you seeking multiple IP addresses for? To create specific overlays of a single physical<br>
network, to provide redundant physical paths, or to provide service to disjoint networks?<br>
