Self-service network
If you chose networking option 2, you can also create a self-service
(private) network that connects to the physical network infrastructure
via NAT. This network includes a DHCP server that provides IP addresses
to instances. An instance on this network can automatically access
external networks such as the Internet. However, access to an instance
on this network from external networks such as the Internet requires a
floating IP address.
The demo or other unprivileged user can create this
network because it provides connectivity to instances within the
demo project only.
Warning
You must create the provider network
<launch-instance-networks-provider> before the self-service
network.
Note
The following instructions and diagrams use example IP address ranges. You must adjust them for your particular environment.

The service automatically chooses parameters using information from the following files:
ml2_conf.ini:[ml2] tenant_network_types = vxlan [ml2_type_vxlan] vni_ranges = 1:1000Create a subnet on the network:
$ openstack subnet create --network selfservice \ --dns-nameserver DNS_RESOLVER --gateway SELFSERVICE_NETWORK_GATEWAY \ --subnet-range SELFSERVICE_NETWORK_CIDR selfserviceReplace
DNS_RESOLVERwith the IP address of a DNS resolver. In most cases, you can use one from the/etc/resolv.conffile on the host.Replace
SELFSERVICE_NETWORK_GATEWAYwith the gateway you want to use on the self-service network, typically the ".1" IP address.Replace
SELFSERVICE_NETWORK_CIDRwith the subnet you want to use on the self-service network. You can use any arbitrary value, although we recommend a network from RFC 1918.Example
The self-service network uses 172.16.1.0/24 with a gateway on 172.16.1.1. A DHCP server assigns each instance an IP address from 172.16.1.2 to 172.16.1.254. All instances use 8.8.4.4 as a DNS resolver.

Create a router
Self-service networks connect to provider networks using a virtual router that typically performs bidirectional NAT. Each router contains an interface on at least one self-service network and a gateway on a provider network.
The provider network must include the router:external
option to enable self-service routers to use it for connectivity to
external networks such as the Internet. The admin or other
privileged user must include this option during network creation or add
it later. In this case, the router:external option was set
by using the --external parameter when creating the
provider network.
On the controller node, source the

Verify operation
We recommend that you verify operation and fix any issues before proceeding. The following steps use the IP address ranges from the network and subnet creation examples.
On the controller node, source the
admincredentials to gain access to admin-only CLI commands:$ . admin-openrcList network namespaces. You should see one
qrouternamespace and twoqdhcpnamespaces.$ ip netns qrouter-89dd2083-a160-4d75-ab3a-14239f01ea0b qdhcp-7c6f9b37-76b4-463e-98d8-27e5686ed083 qdhcp-0e62efcd-8cee-46c7-b163-d8df05c3c5adList ports on the router to determine the gateway IP address on the provider network:
