In order to allow the ironic inspector dnsmasq service to receive packets
after the network service is restarted, the bind-interfaces option should
not be set. Since the ironic inspector is bound to the br-ctlplane
interface, its not necessary to set this field as this dnsmasq instance
will only service this interface.
From the `dnsmasq man page
<http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/dnsmasq-man.html>`_:
-z, --bind-interfaces
On systems which support it, dnsmasq binds the wildcard address, even
when it is listening on only some interfaces. It then discards requests
that it shouldn't reply to. This has the advantage of working even when
interfaces come and go and change address. This option forces dnsmasq
to really bind only the interfaces it is listening on. About the only
time when this is useful is when running another nameserver (or another
instance of dnsmasq) on the same machine. Setting this option also
enables multiple instances of dnsmasq which provide DHCP service to run
in the same machine.
We do run another dnsmasq instance for neutron but that is bound to the tap
interface in the namespace.
