This change addresses a long-standing issue in rST documentation imported from XML. That import process added backslash escapes in front of various characters. The three most common being '(', ')', and '_'. These instances are removed. Signed-off-by: Ron Stone <ronald.stone@windriver.com> Change-Id: Id43a9337ffcd505ccbdf072d7b29afdb5d2c997e

Subnet Details
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
You can adjust several options for project network subnets, including |DHCP|,
|
|
IP allocation pools, DNS server addresses, and host routes.
|
|
|
|
These options are available on the **Subnet Details** tab when you create or
|
|
edit a project network subnet.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
IP addresses on project network subnets are always managed internally. For
|
|
external address management, use project networks without subnets. For more
|
|
information, see :ref:`Project Network IP Address Management
|
|
<project-network-ip-address-management>`.
|
|
|
|
When creating a new IP subnet for a project network, you can specify the
|
|
following attributes:
|
|
|
|
**Enable DHCP**
|
|
When this attribute is enabled, a virtual |DHCP| server becomes available
|
|
when the subnet is created. It uses the (MAC address, IP address) pairs
|
|
registered in the Neutron database to offer IP addresses in response to
|
|
|DHCP| discovery requests broadcast on the subnet. |DHCP| discovery
|
|
requests from unknown |MAC| addresses are ignored.
|
|
|
|
When the |DHCP| attribute is disabled, all |DHCP| and DNS services, and all
|
|
static routes, if any, must be provisioned externally.
|
|
|
|
**Allocation Pools**
|
|
This a list attribute where each element in the list specifies an IP
|
|
address range, or address pool, in the subnet address space that can be
|
|
used for dynamic offering of IP addresses. By default, there is a single
|
|
allocation pool comprised of the entire subnet's IP address space, with the
|
|
exception of the default gateway's IP address.
|
|
|
|
An external, non-Neutron, |DHCP| server can be attached to a subnet to
|
|
support specific deployment needs as required. For example, it can be
|
|
configured to offer IP addresses on ranges outside the Neutron allocation
|
|
pools to service physical devices attached to the project network, such as
|
|
testing equipment and servers.
|
|
|
|
**DNS Name Servers**
|
|
You can reserve IP addresses for use by DNS servers.
|
|
|
|
**Host Routes**
|
|
You can use this to specify host connections to routers on the subnet.
