Description of problem:
In the context of a live datacenter, sometimes the network teams re-organize their VLANs by changing VLAN IDs . This is pretty straightforward in the context of network configuration and physical servers but when using ML2 VLAN provider networks, those IDs cannot be updated . The only possible solution here would be to delete those networks and recreate them with a different VLAN ID which might be a problem when you have 1000 VMs and 2000 ports.
