[Openstack] Question about Flat DHCP networking

Hi,

The documentation
http://docs.openstack.org/diablo/openstack-compute/admin/content/configuring-flat-dhcp-networking.html
has the passage: "The nova-network service will track leases and
releases in the database so it knows if a VM instance has stopped
properly configuring via DHCP"

Can someone briefly explain me what this means, if possible with rough
pointers to code?
I don't recall nova noticing when my VM actually stopped properly
configuring via DHCP.
