Bug Description

Currently, RBAC for BGPVPNs (https://docs.openstack.org/networking-bgpvpn/latest/) is missing in Neutron but it will valuable feature for cloud administrators.

With RBACs the administrators will be able to share specific bgpvpns to the users and provide them full control of Neutron interconnections. This is a valuable feature for private clouds where some users have experience managing interconnections but cannot be cloud administrators.

Generally it sounds a straight-forward proposal.

One question for clarfication.
What kind of operations will be allowed by a target project who is shared a BGPVPN resource to?
Can a target project associate the BGPVPN resource with network/router/port?

Perhaps all associations by a target project are expected as association with any of these resources is the only operation for a BGPVPN resource but it is nice to clarify it.

In the last drivers meeting, it is the only unclear point. Your reply would be appreciated. Thanks.

The end-user should be able only to associate router/network to exist BGPVPN (created by admin and shared to the project). The end-user will not be able to manage BGPVPN or other resources related to it. As I understand port association can break BGPVPN (via incorrect option --bgpvpn-route) and that's why we cannot provide it for the end-user.
