Re: Why OpenStack use openvpn?
Vinay,
Thanks for the clarification. What is making me think like that is
according to the thread mentioning about site-to-site VPN connections to
avoid duplicate private MAC addresses.
Could you please confirm if the current solution for version E and F can
support site-to-site VPN? I am unable to find any material regarding it on
doc.openstack site other than in that thread.
Thanks,
Howard
