Re: [Openstack-operators] Neutron DHCP agent local routes

2016-04-22 Thread Remco
Hi Neil,

Well that explains...
My networking setup does not conform to the commit message in such a way
that there are multiple subnets on the network, however the instance does
not have an IP address in all of them but only in one.
I guess the only option for now is to patch this code, as a workaround.The
reason for having multiple subnets on the same L2 segment is a migration
scenario. So I guess I'll just patch this as the situation will disappear
in the near future as normally subnets are separated by L2 domains (vlans)
in our setup.

Thanks!
Remco

Hi Neil,

Thanks.
The ip route output is as following, i guess the 0.0.0.0 gateway is only
listed by cloud-init:

debian@instance:/$ ip route
default via 192.168.10.1 dev eth0
192.168.10.0/24 dev eth0  scope link
169.254.169.254 via 192.168.10.1 dev eth0
192.168.11.0/24 dev eth0  scope link
192.168.12.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.10.2

(ip addresses are altered for security reasons).

I'm not sure what creates these routes. I have two suspects: cloud-init and
DHCP. As the same issue is observed on instances without cloud-init this
rules out cloud-init.
We see the same issue on both Windows and Linux instances.

We do not have host routes in the subnet config.

Thanks,
Remco.

[Openstack-operators] Neutron DHCP agent local routes

2016-04-22 Thread Remco
Hi,

We are running Liberty, with provider networks. We use the Neutron DHCP
agent to configure IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for instances. This is all
working great, however we sometimes need to put multiple subnets on one
VLAN interface (for legacy reasons). This is in fact also working, however
it configures some unwanted routes.

For example, the following subnets exist in a Neutron network:

192.168.10.0/24
192.168.11.0/24
192.168.12.0/24

I.e. if the IP address obtained is 192.168.10.8/24, the following routes
are inserted:

192.168.10.0/24 with gateway 0.0.0.0
192.168.11.0/24 with gateway 0.0.0.0
192.168.12.0/24 with gateway 0.0.0.0

The first route is obviously not an issue, as this route is directly
connected, but the other routes are plain wrong and stop traffic from being
routed to the default gateway.

Does anyone know how to disable this behavior? I only want a default
gateway obtained from DHCP and I do not need any further routes.

Thanks,
Remco
