How does Neutron manage switches (in the absence of ML2-Ansible networking)?
Without ML2-Ansible networking, Neutron cannot dynamically manage switches.
Network configurations must be static and predefined in the current setup.
Work is underway to enable tools like networking-generic-switch and networking-baremetal for switch configuration, but these are not integrated capabilities yet.
ML2 is supported plugin-wise, but containers need to be patched with customer-supplied ML2 plugins.
We might be able to patch the container and test these features.
There are two distinct workflows:
One for BMaaS nodes, which ML2 plugins can manage dynamically for networking.
Another for nodes hosting VMs, which are managed by Metal3/Ironic independently.
