Thanks! So _generate_ip @ neutron.db.db_base_plugin_v2.py is one of the methods I need to modify. Is there something like this
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/devref/hooks.html in Neutron for extending its methods or do I need to make a patch
if I wish to distribute my changes?

Regards,
Lari
