Description nenduri 2017-06-02 18:50:01 UTC
Description of problem:

Current maximum logical network name length is 15 characters.

Typical Cisco ACI logical network names are much longer than 15 characters. 
It consists of tenant name, application name, and end point group name.
We need to support 256 characters long.

Is this for external network or any network?

Comment 2 nenduri 2017-06-07 17:56:16 UTC

> Is this for external network or any network?

We need this change for any network. 

we use internal networks in phase 1 and we plan to use external networks (without any network plumbing on rhev host) in phase 2.

Comment 3 Dan Kenigsberg 2017-06-18 12:40:38 UTC
Can you provide a sample network name? We consider whether we want to support unrestricted network names or to keep our current limitations on character types. (keeping the limitation may simplify and haste our implementation a bit)

The ACI network names (EPG names) are in the following format.

TenantName|ApplicationName|EPGName

For example:

Coke|HumanResource|Epg1

The default delimiter is "|". But we do allow configuring delimiter too.
