Add mac and type into API for ips¶
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/ips-add-mac-and-type
Problem description¶
When doing v2.1 API enablement [1], in order to backward compatiblility, nova removed output OS-EXT-IPS-MAC:mac_addr and OS-EXT-IPS:type by using old viewbuilder.
Use Cases¶
As an user, I want to know network info besides existing name and ip range, I want to know mac addr and type.
Proposed change¶
Use microversion to add those info into the output.
Alternatives¶

Data model impact¶
None
REST API impact¶
GET /v2.1/{project_id}/servers/{server_id}/ips returns following now
{
"addresses": {
"private": [
{
"version": 4,
"addr": "10.0.0.2"
}
]
}
}
if will be changed to return
{
"addresses": {
"private": [
{
"version": 4,
"addr": "10.0.0.2",
"type": "fixed",
"mac_addr": "00:00:00:00:00:00"
}
]
}
}
this is also applied to
/v2.1/{tenant_id}/servers/{server_id}/ips/{network_label}
