Not sure about the cinder question, but I can answer the Neutron ones. >When dnsmasq DHCP leases expire with a still-active VM, how does dnsmasq know to renew the same IP address to the same machine and what changes to ensure the IP can be re-assigned?
Dnsmasq is configured by the DHCP agent with static leases for all of the created Neutron ports. It will only give out leases for a known IP/mac pair. It's not configured like a regular DHCP server that has a pool it allocates from so you don't have to worry about an address being taken by another VM. >When overlapping IP's/namespaces are enabled within Neutron with a VLAN model, what do the packets look like on the switch when the compute and network nodes are installed on separate machines? Traffic leaving the VM will be tagged with the VLAN for each network. Since the traffic stays isolated within the VLAN, you would see the same IP addresses on different VLAN tags. When this traffic arrives at the network node, the vswitch will tag the tag off and put the packet onto the corresponding internal VLAN (or bridge in the linuxbridge case), which has the ports for the correct L3 namespace.
