Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/quantum-network-segment-translation.

Description:

If a Quantum network is composed of multiple different types of segments, we need a way for the provider to setup a mapping between the segments. Take for example the case of VXLAN. To map a VXLAN segment to the physical world, it's likely to have to go out a VLAN. This blueprint covers the ability for the provider to provider the intent for this VXLAN:VLAN mapping, in this example. This blueprint is not limited to any particular type of segmentation technology.
