BGPVPN extension

[Mathieu Rohon]

We propose to extend the neutron API to allow tenants to stretch their BGP based IP VPN to their Openstack project.

This extension would allow to create BGPVPN connection objects based on route targets informations. A BGPVPN objects would be assign to a tenant. The tenant could then easily stretch its IP VPNs to its Openstack project, by attaching networks to the corresponding BGPVPN connection.

This RFE is related to the BGPVPN spec.

[Paul Michali (pcm)]

The overall idea looks good to me. May want to focus on a specific use case for the initial release (the spec alludes to several use cases).

[Kyle Mestery (mestery)]

I believe the external networking BGP project covers this. IF not, please re-open.

Review: https://review.openstack.org/177740
Reason: As thomas stated in his previous comment, this spec is now moving to the networking-bgpvpn project

[Thomas Morin (tmmorin-orange)]

Yes Kyle, this evolution is now covered by, and the main purpose of, the networking-bgpvpn project.
