In a typical OpenStack Networking deployment, some agents run on network or compute
nodes, such as neutron-dhcp-agent, neutron-ovs-agent,
and neutron-l3-agent. This extension provides a way for
administrators(enforced by the policy engine) to view their status and update their
attributes. Updating agent management API attributes will affect operations of other
components such as OpenStack Networking schedulers. For instance administrators can disable
a certain agent, and OpenStack Networking schedulers will not schedule resources to
it.
For how to use agent management extension and OpenStack Networking schedulers feature, see the OpenStack Cloud Administrator Guide.
