A DNS is a DNS is a DNS.. There's nothing that forces you to publish the Designate DNS to the Internet.. Or maybe we're talking about different things? The DNS service that is available in Neutron _is_ (I'm guessing) supposed to be used "internally between instances". But that can't be "managed" in any way. It will auto create everything, and you can't change anything in it. So if you want different domains for different networks, different people to actually be able to CHANGE things in the DNS, then it's only Designate you can use. .. as far as I know anyway. > Maybe this is where I'm going astray.

You have to actually put it there manually (or automatically with your provisioning tool or whatever - I'm using Heat for that). > 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.

The dns_assignment shows the FQDN using the dns_domain from > neutron.conf that I mentioned above. The network have "dns_domain" and the instance/port have "dns_name". Combined (when configured correctly), will automatically create an entry in the domain in Designate. To setup Designate, you also have to create a Designate "pool" (basically specifying what type of DNS system you're using - I'm using Bind9 - where they are, setup secure RNDC etc, etc). -- Try not.
