This should be the Job for auth_token, this has been added (or
rewritten) and commited as of last night :

https://github.com/openstack/keystone/commit/1e07b98d77a6ccb254e6f4411682235a47dab137

Yo basically would have the setting :

memcache_servers = 192.168.254.11:11211

in your [filter:tokenauth] directive and it will use that.

[Yes documentation needs to be updated, we are working on it]
