Re: [Quantum] Metadata service route from a VM

 

Anyone ?
I found the reason why a 'quantum-dhcp-agent restart' is fixing the route, this is because the lease is DHCPNACK'd at next client refresh and the VM is getting a fresh new configuration excluding 169.254.0.0/16 route.

Community, I beg you to confirm the 169.254.0.0/16 route should *not* be pushed to VMs, and 169.254.169.254/32 should be sent thru the default route (ie. provider router internal IP). If it's the case, I'll update all my images to remove that route. If not, something is wrong with my Quantum setup that I should fix.

Thanks,

Hi,

Previously using nova-network, all my VMs were having :
 # route -n
Table de routage IP du noyau
Destination Passerelle Genmask Indic Metric Ref Use Iface
10.0.0.0        0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0 0        0 eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1002 0 0 eth0
0.0.0.0         10.0.0.1        0.0.0.0         UG    0 0        0 eth0

Now, this setup seems incorrect with Quantum, as the ARP query goes directly from the network node trying to resolve 169.254.169.254 :
[root@toto ~]# curl http://169.254.169.254/
curl: (7) couldn't connect to host

The only way for me to fix it is to remove the 169.254.0.0/16 route on the VM (or for some reason I doesn't understand, by restarting quantum-dhcp-agent on the network node) and then L3 routing is working correctly :

[root@toto ~]# route del -net 169.254.0.0/16
[root@toto ~]# curl http://169.254.169.254/

I can't understand what's wrong with my setup. Could you help me ? I would have to undergo a post-up statement for all my images... :(

Thanks,
