Open Stack

Hi All,

In quantum/db/loadbalancer_db.py, for every Vip creation, I see that a Quantum Port is also created (using the core quantum plugin).
This basically limits us from creating multiple Vip Ports ( For example, for a virtual ip  say, 10.1.1.5, creating an HTTP Port and another Custom Port or DNS Port etc) as the code checks for IpAddress Uniqueness and fails with IpAddressInUse Error.

I would like to understand the reason/logic of this implementation. Our hardware load balancers allow the end user to create multiple ports for a given virtual IP and wondering to support that via Open Stack.

Your response on this is highly appreciated.

Regards,
Pattabi
