Re: [Openstack-operators] nova-network NAT question

 

Nova assumes that the cloud operator will want to separate the VMs from the physical infrastructure.... So the address range on the physical nodes and VM are 'Foreign' to each other. For VMs to be able to communicate with the outside world in this environment, snat is required.
There's no real way in Essex to disable that.

Why do you want to avoid NAT?
