<p><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Is there a requirement to use DHCP with quantum? Even when I do not specify the "--quantum_use_dhcp" flag, my vm which gets spawned successfully (and an IP address is assigned to it and it's /etc/network/interfaces gets created to use that IP address) tries to get its IP address using udhcpc but fails and does not get an IP address (ipv4 address that is). I see exactly the same thing happening when I specify the "--quantum_use_dhcp" flag. </font><br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">Any suggestions as to what I may be doing incorrectly? Why dhcp is used without the "--quantum_use_dhcp" flag, and why dhcp server does not respond even when the "--quantum_use_dhcp" flag is specified. I am using a single node install with devstack.</font><br>
