[neutron] set/find dhcp-server address

Hi,

it seems I wasn't first who asked for this -
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Neutron/enable-to-set-dhcp-port-attributes
and it seems there was no progress on this?

Is it possible to at least include DHCP address in output of 'subnet
show' API call?

The shortest way I've found is:
* openstack port list --project ... --device-owner network:dhcp
and then for **every port** in resulting list
* openstack port show
in order to extract 'Fixed IP Addresses' attribute for analysis

Too much calls, isn't it?
