First off you should be using hyper-v from 2012 server.  2008 only supports flat networking as of the last time I used it.   All active development is geared towards 2012 hyper-v.   Functionality for  is minimal for 2008 which is also in the wmiv1 namespace.  The legacy/original wmiv1 is basically being replaced by wmiv2 for Havana.

Try hyper-v server 2012, we give it away for free.

And use that instead of 2008 hyper-v.  You will have better results and 90% more functionality.

Subject: Re: [Openstack] [HyperV][Quantum] Quantum dhcp agent not working for Hyper-V


is the MAC addr coming from the hyper-v on the dhcp request the same one the dhcp-agent is
expecting?
