<title>Manage Networking service quotas</title>
<para>A quota limits the number of available resources. A default
quota might be enforced for all tenants. When you try to create
more resources than the quota allows, an error occurs:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron net-create test_net</userinput></screen>
<screen><computeroutput>Quota exceeded for resources: ['network']</computeroutput></screen>
<para>Per-tenant quota configuration is also supported by the quota
extension API. See <link linkend="cfg_quotas_per_tenant">
Per-tenant quota configuration</link> for details.</para>
<section xml:id="cfg_quotas_common">
<title>Basic quota configuration</title>
<para>In the Networking default quota mechanism, all tenants have
the same quota values, such as the number of resources that a
tenant can create.</para>
<para>The quota value is defined in the OpenStack Networking
<filename>neutron.conf</filename> configuration file. To
disable quotas for a specific resource, such as network, subnet,
or port, remove a corresponding item from
<option>quota_items</option>. This example shows the default
quota values:</para>
<programlisting language="ini">[quotas]
# resource name(s) that are supported in quota features
quota_items = network,subnet,port
# number of networks allowed per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_network = 10
# number of subnets allowed per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_subnet = 10
# number of ports allowed per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_port = 50
# default driver to use for quota checks
quota_driver = neutron.quota.ConfDriver</programlisting>
<para>OpenStack Networking also supports quotas for L3 resources:
router and floating IP. Add these lines to the
<literal>quotas</literal> section in the
<filename>neutron.conf</filename> file.</para>
<programlisting language="ini">[quotas]
# number of routers allowed per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_router = 10
# number of floating IPs allowed per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_floatingip = 50</programlisting>
<note>
<para>The <option>quota_items</option> option does not affect
these quotas.</para>
</note>
<para>OpenStack Networking also supports quotas for security group
resources: number of security groups and the number of rules for
each security group. Add these lines to the
<literal>quotas</literal> section in the
<filename>neutron.conf</filename> file:</para>
<programlisting language="ini">[quotas]
# number of security groups per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_security_group = 10
# number of security rules allowed per tenant, and minus means unlimited
quota_security_group_rule = 100</programlisting>
<note>
<para>The <option>quota_items</option> option does not affect
these quotas.</para>

<title>Configure per-tenant quotas</title>
<para>OpenStack Networking also supports per-tenant quota limit by
quota extension API.</para>
<para>Use these commands to manage per-tenant quotas:<itemizedlist>
<listitem>

<listitem>
<para><command>neutron quota-list</command>. Lists defined

<para><command>neutron quota-update</command>. Updates

</listitem>
</itemizedlist>Only users with the <literal>admin</literal> role
can change a quota value. By default, the default set of quotas
are enforced for all tenants, so no
<command>quota-create</command> command exists.</para>

<title>Configure Networking to show per-tenant quotas</title>
<para>Set the <literal>quota_driver</literal> option in the

<para>When you set this option, the output for Networking

<para>To list the Networking extensions, run this

<note>
<para>Only some plug-ins support per-tenant quotas.
Specifically, Open vSwitch, Linux Bridge, and VMware NSX
support them, but new versions of other plug-ins might
bring additional functionality. See the documentation for
each plug-in.</para>

<title>List tenants who have per-tenant quota support</title>
<para>The <command>quota-list</command> command lists tenants
for which the per-tenant quota is enabled. The command does
not list tenants with default quota support. You must be an
administrative user to run this command:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-list</userinput></screen>
<screen><computeroutput>+------------+---------+------+--------+--------+----------------------------------+
| floatingip | network | port | router | subnet | tenant_id |

</step>
<step>
<title>Show per-tenant quota values</title>
<para>The <command>quota-show</command> reports the current
set of quota limits for the specified tenant.
Non-administrative users can run this command without the
<parameter>--tenant_id</parameter> parameter. If
per-tenant quota limits are not enabled for the tenant, the
command shows the default set of quotas:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-show --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723</userinput></screen>

<para>The following command shows the command output for a
non-administrative user:</para>

<step>
<title>Update quota values for a specified tenant</title>
<para>Use the <command>quota-update</command> command to
update a quota for a specified tenant:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-update --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723 --network 5</userinput>

| floatingip | 50 |
| network | 5 |
| port | 50 |
| router | 10 |
| subnet | 10 |
+------------+-------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>You can update quotas for multiple resources through one
command:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-update --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723 --subnet 5 --port 20</userinput>
<computeroutput>+------------+-------+

+------------+-------+
| floatingip | 50 |
| network | 5 |
| port | 20 |
| router | 10 |
| subnet | 5 |
+------------+-------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>To update the limits for an L3 resource such as, router
or floating IP, you must define new values for the quotas
after the <parameter>--</parameter> directive.</para>
<para>This example updates the limit of the number of floating
IPs for the specified tenant:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-update --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723 -- --floatingip 20</userinput></screen>
<screen><computeroutput>+------------+-------+

+------------+-------+
| floatingip | 20 |
| network | 5 |
| port | 20 |
| router | 10 |
| subnet | 5 |
+------------+-------+</computeroutput></screen>
<para>You can update the limits of multiple resources by
including L2 resources and L3 resource through one
command.</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-update --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723 --network 3 --subnet 3 --port 3 -- --floatingip 3 --router 3</userinput>
<computeroutput>+------------+-------+

| router | 3 |
| subnet | 3 |
+------------+-------+</computeroutput></screen>
</step>
<step>
<title>Delete per-tenant quota values</title>
<para>To clear per-tenant quota limits, use the
<command>quota-delete</command> command:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-delete --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723</userinput></screen>
<screen><computeroutput>Deleted quota: 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723</computeroutput></screen>
<para>After you run this command, you can see that quota
values for the tenant are reset to the default
values:</para>
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput>neutron quota-show --tenant_id 6f88036c45344d9999a1f971e4882723</userinput></screen>
