Here we go:

---
root at net-node-1:~# grep local_ip
/etc/neutron/plugins/openvswitch/ovs_neutron_plugin.ini
local_ip = 10.20.2.52

root at net-node-1:~# ip r | grep 10.\20
10.20.2.0/24 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.20.2.52

---
root at hypervisor-1:~# grep local_ip
/etc/neutron/plugins/openvswitch/ovs_neutron_plugin.ini
local_ip = 10.20.2.53

root at hypervisor-1:~# ip r | grep 10.\20
