[Openstack] [Netstack] Multiple vNICs for Multiple networks.

Hi,

Yes, if you do not specify networks using the “–nic” option you will get a vnic on each of the public networks and one for each network belonging to that tenant. Using the “—nic net-id=uuid-xyz” option you can refer to specific networks on which you want the vnics.

Thanks,
~Sumit.

Subject: [Netstack] Multiple vNICs for Multiple networks.

Hi-


I have installed Openstack+Quantum+OVS in two machines.

One Controller and the other as node.

I have created tenant specific/labeled and public labeled networks.

Upon bringing up instances in a tenant, I'm able to see 3 types of IP address for the instance. and Upon login into the instance, for "ifconfig -a" I'm able to see eth0,eth1 and eth2 interfaces.

But for ifconfig, only eth0 is shown. If I do "dhclient eth1", I'm able to get the ip address for the instance.

Is that for 'N' number of networks, instances get those many vNICs..?

Please help me understand the same.
