Revision as of 18:49, 17 February 2014

The L3 Neutron sub-team exists to help members on the Neutron community reach consensus on various L3 subjects. This does not automatically include every L3 subject, especially those that are progressing well and mature on their own. Initially, this team's charter will include ...

  • Build community consensus around distributed/ha routers.
  • Build some definition around the subject of dynamic routing within Neutron.
    • possibly with the goal to split this subject in to a few well-defined sub-cases.
    • Target the Atlanta design summit for some sub-set of these use-cases.

Partial list of relevant blueprints

Other L3 topics will eventually follow. Potential topics that will be covered include the following.

Meetings

I encourage all to attend the Distributed-Virtual-Router meetings which are already going on. It deals with a specific use case under this sub team.

Agendas for 2014
