In advanced zone shared network if someone wants to use DHCP server outside the cloudstack, currently it can be done by not selecting the DHCP service But the problem here is that the VM actual ip is different from what cloudstack showing.
If there are no services selected for the network offering there is no need of the VR. In the absense of VR there should be way to provide password, userdata/metadata, ssh keys to user vm. With this feature we can do the following. 1. Create network without VR. 2. Retrive the IP from the VM and update it in the cloudstack DB. 3. Add config drive support for the VMs in this network. Please provide your comments for the below FS.
