All,

I realized that this question was discussed on [netstack] mailing list earlier (Is that separate mailing list now merged with this list ? If not where do I subscribe to netstack mailinglist ?)
About a month ago, Doude had asked :

So, that's mean the current trunk doesn't work with trio Nova+Quantum+Melange.
That's correct ?

http://www.mail-archive.com/netstack@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg00731.html

But I didn’t see any clear yes/no answer.

Nova+Quantum+Melange should all be working together with the current release candidates (Essex trunk).

Additionally, while I saw reference to “mélange” command line tool, I am not sure what all (sub) commands need to be executed (and in what order) to get a “working” setup for nova+quantum+mélange

The Melange client can be found at: https://github.com/openstack/python-melangeclient. This client can be used to set policies which I'll discuss below.

Subject: [Openstack] Bug or bad config ? melange IPAM allocating .0, .1 addresses

I’ve configured mélange IPAM using devstack (Added mélange and m-svc to ENBALED_SERVICES in stackrc before I executed stack.sh)
I’m using quantum network manager.

As you can see that 10.0.0.0 and 10.0.0.1 addresses are assigned to VMs created using dashboard/horizon – so I didn’t specify any network params when I created the VMs

Output from “nova-manage network list”

id   IPv4        IPv6       start address   DNS1       DNS2      VlanID       project         uuid
1    None        None       10.0.0.2        None       None      None         default         60a27f40-3fd1-4ed5-99ac-833109fd4713

Output from “nova list”

+--------------------------------------+---------+--------+------------------+

(t1359-3 was created using “nova boot t1359-3 --image 6b8d93bf-4344-4594-b6fa-c2cc5a8a5b1d --flavor 1 --key_name mandar-kp” but I don’t think it matters since .2 would have been allocated to the next VM created via dashboard/ as well)

Obviously, I am unable to reach VMs via ssh – even the one with .2 IP address.

The mélange.conf is unchanged from the one created by stack.sh (given at the end, in case someone needs to refer to it)

Is this a defect or bad configuration ?

By default, Melange will hand out any available IP in the block. It doesn't try to derive gateway or broadcast addresses because there are cases where a subnet block could have valid IPs in the first two addresses of the block. The concept of policies was created to enable deployments to define rules for reserving addresses. To use them for solving this problem you could follow this sequence of commands through the CLI:

`melange policy create -t {tennant} name={block_name} desc={policy_name}`
                                               (This should return the policy_id for the next command)
`melange unusable_ip_octet create -t {tennant} policy_id={policy_id} octet=0`
`melange unusable_ip_octet create -t {tennant} policy_id={policy_id} octet=1`
`melange ip_block update -t {tennant} id={block_id} policy_id={policy_id}`
