Ok, thanx. It doesn't say on 

  http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide/networking_config-agents.html

and the first section isn't clear either:

  Plug-ins typically have requirements for particular software
  that must be run on each node that handles data packets. This
  includes any node that runs nova-compute and nodes that run
  dedicated OpenStack Networking service agents such as
  neutron-dhcp-agent, neutron-l3-agent, neutron-metering-agent
  or neutron-lbaas-agent.

The first sentence is quite clear. But the second indicates that
it should also run on the Compute.

But with your answer above, that makes it more clear, but it should
say that..
