This is only if you're using the controllers to serve as a gateway to 
the Internet or to direct incoming traffic to the VMs.

If you use a VLAN only network configuration to offload the gateway to 
an external device (router or l3 switch) or you use Neutron in DVR mode, 
this shouldn't be an issue.
