Hi Yong,
Thanks for information.
I think you mean to say that these Quantum Network Node is not per Tenant basis and it can serve all the Tenants of DC setup. Just want to un derstand what will be the advantages we are thinking of by doing so.
TO have multiple l3 agent nodes, we can distribute traffic from VMs among l3 agent nodes.

    Hi,
    In fact, we can split Quantum network Node into two categories:
    one is for dhcp, which install ovs agent and dhcp agent. We can
    have one such kind of node
    one is for l3 agent, we can deal with one external network on one
    l3 agent. We can have many nodes of this kind.

    Hi Salvatore,
    Just want to understand more on Network Node in the below given
    app_demo page.
    As i see in the setup, it looks like there will be one Quantum
    Network Node for one Data centre setup. Please correct me if my
    assumptions are wrong.
    This Quantum Network Node will have all the virtual routers,
    gateway which can be created with quantum-l3-agent plugin.
    Also my assumption is that this quantum Network Node will serve
    all the Tenant virtual gateways and routers created using quantum.
    Please give us some more information on this to understand the setup.
    Also do we have any specific reason for having quantum Network
    Node instead of keeping these plugin on the Controller Node
    similar to earlier release like Essex.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Balaji

        Hi Trinath,

        Even if is perfectly reasonable to run the DHCP/L3 agents in
        the controller node, the advice we give in the administration
        guide is slightly different.
        As suggested in [1], the only Quantum component running on
        the controller node should be the API server.
        The DHCP and L3 agents might run in a dedicated "network
        node". Please note you will need also the L2 agent running on
        that node.

        Regards,
        Salvatore

            Hi Stackers-

            I have found many installation and configuration manuals
            for Openstack Folsom which state the installation and
            configuration of Quantum-DHCP-Agent in the Controller
            machine.

            But I have doubt here,

            Can't we have the Quantum-DHCP/L3-Agent to be running in
            the Compute NODE rather than in the controller.

            How does the Installation and configuration change with
            this type of Installation?

            Please guide me on How to achieve the same.

            Thanking you
