Kevin is correct; as your're running IP namespaces, you'll need to look for
iptables in that namespace.
The metadata settings however are visible in the log extract you posted.
It seems your metadata server is sitting at 172.16.0.201:8775
I guess you've already ensured that endpoint is reachable from the router
(a wget execute in the router namespace will prove that).

Also, metadata is one of those (few) features which in Quantum come with
strings attached. You can find more info on this in the admin guide [1].
The link to the page where metadata are discussed reported below, just in
case you haven't already seen it.
