Network Segment Range Management
Currently, network segment ranges are configured as an entry in ML2 config file [1]_ that is statically defined for tenant network allocation and therefore must be managed as part of the host deployment and management. When a normal tenant user creates a network, Neutron assigns the next free segmentation ID (VLAN ID, VNI etc.) from the configured segment ranges; only an administrator can assign a specific segment ID via the provider extension.
This spec introduces an extension which exposes the segment range management to be administered via the neutron API. In addition, it introduces the ability for the administrator to control the segment ranges globally or on a per-tenant basis.
