Open Stack

Hi

For the file configuration,
/etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini

I have to questions:

1.  Does it make sense to define bond0.45 as the 'physnet' ?
Thus the definiton would be:

[ml2_type_vlan]
network_vlan_ranges = bond0.45:1001:2000   ?

2.  Also, is it enough to have this definition on the network node ?
(i.e. not for compute or controller node).

Thanks and regards,

Yngvi

Your setup should be fine.

Ensure, that you have created your openstack external network as flat provider network (default with devstack). Then adding br-ex into the vlan device enforces vlan traffic on the external network. 
An alternative approach would be to add the bond interface into the br-ex (instead of its vlan device) and create your openstack external provider network as vlan network using vlan 45.
Both should work!

In general take be aware, all the vlans you're using have to be enabled in your hardware switch as well if it's not a 20$ device.
