Additional information: The support for the following backend driver: BaGPipe driver, in RHOSP will depend on the availability of BGP VPN Interconnection service plugin. [1],[2] being tracked by [3],[4] where BGP VPN interconnection API will allow tenants to interconnect their neutron networks with MPLS based BGP VPNs. This will address the following Orange use case among others: a) On-demand VPNs for multi-site NFV Applications (ex. a geographically distributed vIMS cluster) b) Coupling between IaaS services for businesses and their managed MPLS VPNs c) Allow simple interconnection between tenants without NAT/floating IPs (useful for both Cloud offers and NFV needs) [1] http://docs.openstack.org/developer/networking-bgpvpn/overview.html [2] https://github.com/openstack/networking-bgpvpn [3] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1369047 [4] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1376763
This will not land in RHOSP 12. We do, however, working on introducing support for the API service (without BaGPipe as a "reference implementation") so that partners can provide driver support. See BZ 1431695. Thanks, Nir
The bagpipe driver in rdo should hopefully merge this week (just pushed the patch with the last action addressed) [1], there was some delay as we needed to get exabgp packaged in Fedora and then referenced in CentOS build servers. https://review.rdoproject.org/r/#/c/5839/9
This is available upstream in RDO now, so we can close this if others agree?
I think this is a good rendez-vous point to discuss when this could also land in OSP, so unless you prefer opening a new BZ for that, I think we could keep it open.
@Thomas, that's fine with me.
We have no plans to support the BaGPipe driver at this point. The BGP/VPN API is included with RHOSP starting with RHOSP 10, and we might support the ODL driver in the future.
