I'm trying to configure a Neutron BGP speaker.
Part of the process involves creating a subnet from a subnet pool, from an address scope. This is the exact command from the docs:
$ neutron subnet-create --name provider --subnetpool provider \
--prefixlen 24 --allocation-pool start=203.0.113.11,end=203.0.113.254 \
--gateway 203.0.113.1 provider
The problem is that it returns an error about the --allocation-pool
option not being available when creating a subnet from a subnet pool.
Bad subnets request: allocation_pools allowed only for specific subnet requests..
I would love to simply leave the option out. However this is an external/physical network, and VRRP is being used on the routers.
The resulting subnet without the --allocation-pool
option would assign the .2
address to some virtual entity when both the .1
and .2
address are used by the physical gateways on that external network.
