[Openstack] Instance IP assignment problem

Hmm... I didn't know the difference. 
So does it works like this: one can use the floating_range flag/fixed_range in nova. conf for putting instances in this global network by default ? and then one could create quantum network for each project and may use fixed/floating flags with this network to define private and public networks ?

I assume that it is the pool of addresses that your instances will get IP from, right? It may be worthwhile to modify it to fixed_range because Bilal suggested here that this config worked for him.
