VLAN Provisioning Based on Provider Networks

There are several scenarios in which Virtual Machine can be created on provider networks.

default VLAN provisioning of endpoints is done when Neutron ports are bound to a host or compute node.

Example:

  • The Neutron port is bound to a host when VM is launched.
  • The Neutron port is bound to a host (Neutron controller) when DHCP starts.
default (device-owner=dc-edge –host=<DCGW>) VLAN provisioning for default physnet is done during port creation based on additional parameters passed during port create call.
non-default (PFPT_L, EXT1) VLAN provisioning is done during network creation or segment creation of single segment or multiple segment.

The endpoints are deprovisoned during the following negation operations:
