Neutron support for aggregated rate limiting

Registered by vikram.choudhary

This proposal talks about the support for aggregated rate limiting in neutron. The proposed QoS framework "https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/quantum-qos-api" will be extended for achieving this.

---------------

(mangelajo) I suspect this is yet out of scope, could you clarify a bit what do you mean exactly? Aggregated network bandwidth limit across hosts?

Btw, in the new process this should be an RFE bug, and not a blueprint yet.

(vikram) I agree with Ajo. BTW, the intention is simple. In the current QoS implementation, network qos-rules are applied to all the ports uniformly in the network. This may be wrong. Consider a case where the user just want 20 mbps speed for the entire network but the current implementation will end up in allowing 20 * num_of_ports_in_the_networks mbps for the user.
