Hi stakers,
We’re trying to replace dnsmasq-supplied DHCP for tenant VMs with a vendor’s
baremetal DHCP server. In order to pass DHCP request to a vendor’s server and
send DHCP response back to VM we decided to add another OVS bridge (we called
it br-dhcp), connected to integration bridge (br-int), which will have OVS
rules connecting VM’s MAC address with br-dhcp port. In this scenario DHCP
response will only find it’s way back to a VM if VM has globally-unique MAC
address.
My questions are:
is having code which generates globally-unique MACs for VMs acceptable by the
community at all?
is there a better solution to the problem (we also tried using dnsmasq as a
DHCP relay there)?
Thanks,
Roman
