Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to set up one instance as a DHCP/tftp server, and netboot another instance from it (using PXE or similar).

Has anyone tried something like this? I'm using neutron, so I figure there's at least a chance that it offers sufficient flexibility.
I have code that does the necessary steps with Neutron to:

1.  Create two networks (public and private)  with subnets for each
2.  Adds a router for the public subnet to attach it to the public network
3. Creates two VMs (RHEL, Centos, or Fedora) and attaches them to both networks.


So, you should be able to use this setup to have DHCP listen on private interface. Create a new host with no image and only connect it to the private and it should PXE boot.
