[Bug 1882588] [NEW] DHCP client/server ports incorrectly defined in constants file

 

Public bug reported:

The DHCP client and server port numbers are incorrectly defined in the
constants file:

DHCP_CLIENT_PORT = 67
DHCP_RESPONSE_PORT = 68

IANA defines these the opposite - 68 for the client and 67 for the
server.

Neutron uses them backwards, so will also need an update to work-around
so a new release of neutron-lib doesn't break things.

Also, other plugins seemed to have noticed and worked around this
already, at least Dragonflow and Cisco have defined them correctly
locally:
