Registered by Julien Danjou

The Ceilometer project would like to get meters from Quantum via the notifications system on how much bandwidth the projects are using.

Whiteboard

10-Jun: Moving to H3. If this work is completed earlier, we can assign the milestone back to H2.

The idea is to meter this as the L3 routers levels. It would be needed to add methods on the interface that virtual routers are meant to implement that would allow to retrieve bandwidth usage.
Thus, every once in a while, the router would send via the Oslo notifications mechanism information about bandwidth usage information for each project.

The information should probably be encoded as delta, not as absolute or cumulative counters, since they could come from multiple routers, and doing the tracking would be a hard task.
