Bug 1221327

Summary: --router:external=True syntax is invalid - not backward compatibility

Fixed In Version: python-neutronclient-2.4.0-2.el7ost Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
The syntax for using external routers with python-neutronclient was changed in an earlier update. Consequently, existing scripts used to create/manage networks stopped working with the RHEL OpenStack Platform 7 beta if using the older '--router:external=True' syntax. With this update, the previous syntax is again supported, and as a result, networks can be correctly managed without having to update such scripts.

Description Lon Hohberger 2015-05-13 17:58:34 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1221063 +++

Steps to Reproduce:
1.[root@puma14 ~(keystone_admin)]# neutron net-create public --provider:network_type vlan --provider:physical_network physnet --provider:segmentation_id 193 --router:external=True

Actual results:
usage: neutron net-create [-h] [-f {shell,table,value}] [-c COLUMN]
                          [--max-width <integer>] [--prefix PREFIX]
                          [--request-format {json,xml}]
                          [--tenant-id TENANT_ID] [--admin-state-down]
                          [--shared] [--router:external]
                          [--provider:network_type <network_type>]
                          [--provider:physical_network <physical_network_name>]
                          [--provider:segmentation_id <segmentation_id>]
                          [--vlan-transparent {True,False}]
                          NAME
neutron net-create: error: argument --router:external: ignored explicit argument u'True'


Additional info:
----------------
not backward compatibility.

Current syntax supports:
[root@puma14 ~(keystone_admin)]# neutron net-create public --provider:network_type vlan --provider:physical_network physnet --provider:segmentation_id 193 --router:external
