[openstack-dev] [nova][network] Gateway in network_info seems not to be correct

Hi All,

I'm currently trying out the docker in FlatDHCPManager multi_host mode.
I figured out that my instance are not pingable. The reason for that
is that they get the wrong gateway assigned.

Currently we use the "gateway" field provided by the network_info
object. That works great in a single node setup. But in a multi_host
setup it still delivers (in my case) 10.0.0.1. Which is wrong since it
must be dnsmasq IP address of the compute node.

Should a driver use the DNS ip (dnsmasq) address in the multi_host
mode as gateway? Why is the gateway delivered by the nova not correct
(bug)? Any insides?

thank you,
Daniel
