In that case you have two options:<br><br>1) use floating ips <br>2) create a provider network that bridges to the same physical of the hosts that you want to be able to contact your vms. <br><br>Aaron<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

      Anyway, what you need is not requiring having a floating IP pool
      inside the same network, you can also play with static routing :
      if your physical host does have a default gw, you can create a
      static route from this gw to the VM network gateway. And on the VM

                <div>Hi,<br>
                  <br>
                  I don't understand your business. Should you have a <a href="http://192.168.1.0/24" target="_blank">192.168.1.0/24</a> network for
                  management, you could also assign an external network
                  with Quantum based on the same subnet (ie. <a href="http://192.168.1.0/24" target="_blank">192.168.1.0/24</a>). <br>
                  When creating a floating IP pool, Quantum does require
                  at least 3 things : <br>
                   - the CIDR<br>
                   - the beginning and ending IPs <br>
                   - the external gateway <br>
                  <br>
                  So, based on what I previously said, you only need to
                  create a <a href="http://192.168.1.0/24" target="_blank">192.168.1.0/24</a>
                  in Quantum with .1-.100 (for example) as the range,
                  .254 being the external gateway.<br>
