Calyptos: Support for static route deployment (instead of bgp)

[dmccue]

Could have an attribute such as default_attributes.midokura.static_route: true

This would kick off multiple resources to allow access to instances over their public interfaces based on the default_attributes.eucalyptus.network.config-json.PublicIps string

Hi @dmccue,
I began testing some different approaches to this last week.
I also discussed this briefly with @mbacchi last week. We are looking at larger changes in regards to how Calyptos handles system level items (such as network interfaces) in general. This may add to the potential size of the environment document, but should also allow that document to be more transparent and flexible. I think this refactor will cover this use case.
In the meantime...
We could also add a recipe to the Midokura-Cookbook that can be used directly via chef-client on the GW's to see if that addresses the problem/need? ie: "chef-client -z -o midokura::static-gateway" ?
Thanks!

The midokura::static-gateway using chef-solo should work temporarily, let me know when to start testing
