The addition of the on-link routes gives us some freedom to allocate a router's IP address from any one of multiple subnets on one external network. Different routers can get their IPs from different subnets and they still have direct on-link connectivity to each other. For example, one router with its primary IP from 10.0.0.0/24 and another from 192.168.0.0/24 can communicate directly. It is important that each router has on-link routes to *all* of the subnets. Any router can host floating ips from any of the subnets regardless of which subnet the primary IP address comes from. This is an alternative to the "Multiple floating IP pools" section in the administration guide. It is a simpler alternative that avoids having to create multiple external networks. It is also more flexible because routers will no longer be restricted to getting floating IPs from the pool to which they happen to be connected. DocImpact Document the procedure for adding subnets to the external network. Potentially remove the existing procedure for "Multiple floating IP pools" from the docs.
