Hi, for a while now we've been trying to get a firm grip on networking options with as simple configuration as possible. We have ended selecting nova-network with FlatDHCP manager. It sounded simple on paper and conceptually it seemed to do what we need. But we can't bolt it together so far.
In our case we have dual-nic machines pressed into service for OpenStack
needs, and nic's assigned as such:
* management network (a.k.a. private network), say 172.1.1.0/24
* client network (a.k.a. public network) 192.168.1.0/24
We also plan on running multiple nova-compute nodes, and have a back-end
cinder and glance nodes.
We do not intend exposing management network to our users so having it
exposed to the VMs is not an option.
we have added VM private netowrk via:
# nova-manage network create privatenet 10.0.0.0/24 1 256 --bridge=privbr0
that we hoped we can bridge into with the FlatDHCP setup. So far all of
our attempts failed either due to misunderstanding of requirements for
such implementation or due to misconfiguration. We can add a pool of
"public IPs", we can assign it, but the traffic is not reaching VMs (or
out of VMs):
# nova-manage network create public --fixed_range_v4=192.168.1.0/24
--dns1=192.168.2.1 --dns2=192.168.2.3 --bridge=br1
# nova secgroup-add-rule default icmp -1 -1 0.0.0.0/0
# nova secgroup-add-rule default tcp 22 22 0.0.0.0/0
# nova-manage floating create --ip_range=192.168.1.0/24
# nova add-floating-ip 972b73d2-0e4b-4f61-907a-f0aeb5d5f974 192.168.1.3
# nova list

...
Is there some reasonably thorough walk-through on FlatDHCP setup for a
similar scenario?
