Gateway IP address is always x.x.x.1 if setup ManagementIPInterface in minigraph.xml

Hi,

Opening an issue base on https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sonicproject/AC30lG0qiPs and please refer the following for copy of original message:

Just found out that the IP address of gateway is always x.x.x.1 if setup ManagementIPInterface in minigraph.xml by the following line in minigraph.py:

gwaddr = ipaddress.IPAddress(int(mgmtipn.network) + 1)

I don't think this is a good way to hardcore this address since the IP address of gateway in different network topology may not x.x.x.1.
Suggest adding a new tag for it like the following sample xml format:

<a:ManagementIPInterface>
HostIP
eth0
<a:Prefix xmlns:b="Microsoft.Search.Autopilot.Evolution">
<b:IPPrefix>100.0.0.30/24</b:IPPrefix>
</a:Prefix>
<a:PrefixStr>100.0.0.30/24</a:PrefixStr>
100.0.0.254
</a:ManagementIPInterface>

Any suggestions would be helpful and let me know if any problem.

Regards,
Kenie Liu

Specifying gateway is not supported in minigraph schema. Please use gwaddr attribute in MGMT_INTERFACE table in config db to config this.
