first of all - thank you very much for bearing with me on this one. ;)

I think you're onto something here as out of my own ignorance I've
assumed that OpenStack/neutron will handle routing auto-magically as I
set up this kind of infrastructure:

$ for i in 123.54.67.{141,144,145} ; do ssh cloud-user@${i} netstat -nar
; done
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
10.10.31.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth0
0.0.0.0         10.10.31.1      0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0
eth0
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
10.10.25.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth0
0.0.0.0         10.10.25.1      0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0
eth0
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
10.10.10.0      0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0
eth0
0.0.0.0         10.10.10.1      0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0
eth0

So how shall I go about setting it up? do I need to spin up some
"dual-nic" VM that would act as a router or can I use some other
OpenStack facilities for that?
