[Openstack] Trouble connecting to a new VM

Tyler, 
please check your Security Groups first. Per default, only traffic from
other VMs is accepted (Destination: default). If everything is set up
correctly, the simplest way is to setup another rule allowing ingress
icmp for 0.0.0.0/0 (all ips). Now pings from extneral nodes can reach
the vm.

But this only helps if egress traffic is already working (ping from vm
to your external subnet). If this is not working, please provide more
details about your bridge setup (ovs-vsctl show) and your interface
setup and what exactly is pingable from which node.
