I think you are looking for multiple neutron-l3-agent. It is possible and has been discussed many times before in mailing lists. Just do a google search 'multiple l3 agent in openstack' you should be able to find some link to start with.

Subject: [Openstack] Network Architecture - Separate Layer 2 and Layer 3 - neutron/network node only l2

Hello,


I'm writing to you because I'd like to discute about the separation of layer 2 and layer 3.

Can openstack network node only work on layer 2 with a dedicated server ? and all layer 3 configuration done elsewere ?

The idea is :  netowk node manage layer 2 topologie (openvswitch/gre tunnel) and  Layer 3  is dedicacted to virtual machine/application.
For evry tenant i'm thinking about a VM doing all L3 jobs (router, firewall, loadbalancing, ....)

Did you see what i mean ? Is it possible ?

Thank you in advance !

Regads,

ps : sorry for my english ;)
