Howdy —

I have an Icehouse OpenStack cloud with nova-network with VLANManager in 
multi-host mode.

I have a need to make all instances in one particular project available to part 
of the core network without any sort of NAT translation in sort of a ‘hybrid 
infrastructure’ setup.  A ‘site-to-cloud’ VPN router seemed to be the best 
option to set this up, so I used OpenVPN to setup the site to site and setup 
the appropriate routing within the project instances and the core network.

Traffic traverses the tunnel, but it looks like because this traffic isn’t 
NAT’d there’s a nova-network iptables rule which assures that only local subnet 
traffic is accepted and the packet is dropped.  I assume this is by design to 
ensure the ‘walled garden’ without the use of network namespaces, but is there 
a workaround to this solution?  ‘cloudpipe’ seems like abandonware, and after 
reading the docs I’m not sure it would solve my problem.

Any insight/help appreciated!
