Allow control of default route injection
Launchpad blueprint:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/group-based-policy/+spec/inject-default-route
Problem description
For every PTG that is created and associated with a subnet, a default gateway is set for that subnet. A route to this default gateway is injected automtically whenever a VM obtains a DHCP IP.
When a VM is associated with more than one PTG, it can get a default route for the subnet associated every PTG. This can lead to one default route overriding another one and might not be desirable in certain cases.
Proposed change
It is proposed to add a new attribute to the l2_policy resource, that will allow suppressing the default route propagation for all PTGs associated with this l2_policy. The current default behavior will be maintained that the default route is always propagated. This change will be backward compatible.
Data model impact
A new boleean attribute "inject_default_route" will be added to the L2Policy table.
REST API impact
A new optional attribute "inject_default_route" is added to the l2_policy resource:
- 'inject_default_route': {'allow_post': True, 'allow_put': True,
'default': True, 'is_visible': True, 'convert_to': attr.convert_to_boolean, 'required': False},
