Ah yes. I remember it well.

It seems to mean "the IP address nova expects to have as an OpenStack compute node" (I see HOWTOs advising not to let the machine get a dynamic DHCP address). All the examples use IPv4 addresses in private ranges... oh, and apparently there's a default setting of use_ipv6=False... so maybe we need to say something like: . This value will be the static address for this compute node, and must use IPv4 unless use_ipv6 is manually set to "True". > > Template: nova/neutron_url > Type: string > Default: http://127.0.0.1:9696 > _Description: Neutron server URL: > Please enter the URL of the Neutron server. > > Template: nova/neutron_admin_tenant_name > Type: string > Default: admin > _Description: Neutron admin tenant name: > Nova needs to be able to communicate with Neutron through Keystone.
