Summary
In vlan networking mode, users need a way to access the private network for their instances. This was supported by per-project vpns (code named cloudpipe), but unfortunately has not been maintained properly. Additionally there are a few security issues with the old implementation.
Release Note
Nova supports per-project vpns in vlan network mode, code named cloudpipes. These allows a user unrestricted access to the instances inside his or her project. The vpn can be accessed through port forwarding from the network host, or by automatically giving the vpn a public ip. Instructions for setting up cloudpipes can be found <here>.

Rationale
User stories
Assumptions
Design
You can have subsections that better describe specific parts of the issue.
Implementation
This section should describe a plan of action (the "how") to implement the changes discussed. Could include subsections like:
UI Changes
Should cover changes required to the UI, or specific UI that is required to implement this
Code Changes
Code changes should include an overview of what needs to change, and in some cases even the specific details.
Migration
Include:
- data migration, if any
- redirects from old URLs to new ones, if any
- how users will be pointed to the new way of doing things, if necessary.
Test/Demo Plan
This need not be added or completed until the specification is nearing beta.
Unresolved issues
This should highlight any issues that should be addressed in further specifications, and not problems with the specification itself; since any specification with problems cannot be approved.
BoF agenda and discussion
Use this section to take notes during the BoF; if you keep it in the approved spec, use it for summarising what was discussed and note any options that were rejected.
