Ok, thanks.
Where is the DHCP agent running?
You need to make sure that the agent is connected to the DVS that you are using 
in Nova. In addition to this you need to make sure that it can use MAC’s that 
are allocated by OpenStack.

its just simple DVS.

core_plugin = vmware_nsx.plugin.NsxDvsPlugin

Hi,
Which backend NSX version are you using? Is this NSX|V, NSX|MH or simple DVS?

[SL] May I ask what version of NSX you're running?
[MV] I have installed it from source picked up from github stable/mitaka -

[SL] NSX doesn't currently handle DHCP on its own, so you'll need the Neutron 
DHCP agent running somewhere. Wherever it's running will need to have OVS 
installed and be registered into NSX as a "hypervisor" so that the DHCP agent 
can be plumbed into the overlay networks.

One common arrangement is to build a Neutron "network node" that is running the 
DHCP agent and metadata agent, and register that into NSX.
 [MV] I have setup only controller with neutron metadata and neutron dhcp

[SL] You need to ensure you are using the version of OVS that is matched 
against your version of NSX. At this time, I don't believe it's OVS 2.5.0 (as 
noted in your command-line installation of OVS).
how to I ensure the supported version is installed. is there a support matrix? 
if so could you please share it?
