Maybe this is where I'm going astray. I don't see dns_name on the instance anywhere, just name. I have set dns_domain on the network but it ignores that for internal dns and uses what is set as dns_domain in neutron.conf. However, the port that gets created for the instance has dns_name (but not dns_domain). The dns_assignment shows the FQDN using the dns_domain from neutron.conf that I mentioned above. > > If I remember correctly, Designate can also do reverse DNS, but I ended > up in some weird corner case so that it don't work for me.
