Perhaps it would be good to return the default value in the response? The caller can then see the default value which is assumed if not specified. BTW, this is the same topic that keeps coming up ;)  ... How does a consumer of the API know what the limits are in general , do we need a /limits?   You solved this problem already in Atlas.

Hi Oleg,

Yes the "connection_limit" attribute on a VIP is not mandatory. If it is not specified when creating a VIP, then it is not shown when you retrieve the VIP. There is no default value for this in the sense that if you don't specify a limit, there is no cap on connections permitted.

Thanks
Youcef

Hi Youcef,

>From LBaaS API spec (http://wiki.openstack.org/Quantum/LBaaS/API_1.0) I see that "connection_limit" field is not mandatory when creating a vip and is not returned in create responses while is returned in list vips responses.
Could you please clarify the status of this field, is it mandatory or not in create requests, and if not then what is the default value for it?

Thanks,
Oleg
