Description Alexander Stafeyev 2017-05-08 10:32:13 UTC
Description of problem:
We need to documents that while create sub-port it should be created with --mac-address PARENT_PORT_MAC_ADDERSS. 


This is the correct networking config- on VM subIF and IF should have the same mac and it is the default option. We need to match neutron port creation with same concept- parent and subport should have same mac address.

Assigning to Martin for review.

Comment 3 Martin Lopes 2017-05-26 05:22:26 UTC
It looks like this requirement is already covered under https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_openstack_platform/11/html-single/networking_guide/#add_subports_to_the_trunk

"Create a neutron port. This port will be used as a subport connection to the trunk. You must also specify the MAC address that was assigned to the parent port:"

Hi Alexander, could you review comment 3 and let me know if there's anything there that should be changed?

Cheers, 
Martin

No , From my point of view it is exactly what is needed .

Comment 6 Martin Lopes 2017-06-19 00:56:36 UTC
As discussed, this requirement was covered under comment 4:

----
1. Create a neutron port. This port will be used as a subport connection to the trunk. You must also specify the MAC address that was assigned to the parent port:

openstack port create --network private --mac-address fa:16:3e:33:c4:75 subport-trunk-port
----
Closing bug.
