Hello Heiko,
I think that there is a blueprint [1] currently in progress to address your
needs. The Quantum developers might be able to give us more information.

> Heyho Guys,
>
> i'm trying to setup Openstack with Quantum. That's not a big deal and
> all components are running but Quantum L3 agent and dhcp agent runs on
> one node (network node). So this node are a GW for external and internal
> traffic. This topology will be a bottleneck in the near future.
> My goal is now to scale out Quantum on other nodes like nova-network.
>
>
> My first idea was to create a second router and configure this router on
> a second node (l3 agent router_id ) with a second external network (l3
> agent network_id). I can use now a second network node with a second
> router and second external network to balance the traffic between this
> tow nodes.
>
> So before i had: 1Gbit Uplink to WAN => 1 x network node with 1 ext NIC
> Now: 2 x 1 Gbit Uplink to WAN => 2 x network node with 1 ext NIC
>
>
> The main goal is to use the external NIC's of each compute node or of
> many Network nodes but the maintainability, which vm or tenant are use
> which network node, is not really good.
>
>
> I would prefere i can Quantum scale out of the box and Quantum manage
> port mapping on different nodes like a port scheduler mapper :)

> Have anyone experience with that ? Ideas or network topologies ?
