Hi all,
I've got the following set in my nova.conf:

--auto_assign_floating_ip

and I fire up an instance.
Everything works, a private IP is assigned... the instance is running...
but it can take an inordinate amount of time (anywhere upwards of 2 mins,
sometimes a lot longer) to associate a floating IP automatically.

Anybody else experienced this?  Any clues on what I can do to troubleshoot
this?  What is the condition when a Floating IP is assigned?  I've seen it
assign Floating IPs very quickly when it is still Booting, not Active, say.
Is it dependent on anything within the Instance itself?

Cheers,

Kev
