Apic ML2 driver enhancements
This blueprint keeps track of some improvements needed by the APIC ML2 Driver.
Specifically, the target enhancements will be:
- Refactoring of the apic-manager: Making it more robust and it's operations idempotent, being also able to "fix" any incoherence that may happen between the APIC and the Neutron world;
- Name mapping: Defining better naming strategy in order to avoid ugly uuids to be used to name APIC resources;
- External Gateway: Enable router external gateway feature for the APIC plugin;
- Dynamic Topology Discovery: enable the ability for the APIC plugin to automatically discover the physical topology (eg. compute host attached interfaces). This will allow less configuration for the user.
- Enable virtual port channel (VPC).
