Enable creation of VXLANs with different multicast addresses allocated by VNI-address mappings. Dictionary of multicast addresses and corresponding VXLAN VNI IDs should be loaded from settings. Usable to not flood whole network when managing routers between more datacenters and can not use L2population because VXLAN points to external device.

Enable creation of VXLANs with different multicast
|
|
addresses allocated by VNI-address mappings.
|
|
features:
|
|
- The ability to control vni-multicast address
|
|
distribution in linuxbridge agent via new config
|
|
option - multicast_ranges.
|
|
other:
|
|
- Example configuration of `multicast_ranges` in
|
|
ml2_conf.ini under the `[vxlan]` config. section
|
|
multicast_ranges = 224.0.0.10:10:90,225.0.0.15:100:900
|
|
For VNI between 10 and 90, the multicast address
|
|
224.0.0.0.10 will be used, and for 100 through 900
|
|
225.0.0.15 will be used. Other VNI values will get
|
|
standard `vxlan_group` address. For more info see RFE
