I have a multi node openstack setup with one controller+neutron node and other compute node.<br>
<br>
As specified in this link:<br>

<a href="https://openstack.redhat.com/Neutron_with_existing_external_network" target="_blank">https://openstack.redhat.com/<u></u>Neutron_with_existing_<u></u>external_network</a><br>
<br>
network restart takes destroys and recreates br-ex which causes the router's interface in the qrouter-* netns to be deleted, and it won't be recreated without clearing and re-setting the gateway.<br>
<br>
This means whenever I do network restart I need to recreate external subnet and assign new floating IPs to the existing VMs.Is there a way I can prevent this?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
