If set to true, the logging level will be set to DEBUG instead of the default INFO level.

log_config_append
Type:string
Default:<None>
Mutable:This option can be changed without restarting.

The name of a logging configuration file. This file is appended to any existing logging configuration files. For details about logging configuration files, see the Python logging module documentation. Note that when logging configuration files are used then all logging configuration is set in the configuration file and other logging configuration options are ignored (for example, logging_context_format_string).

Deprecated Variations
Group Name
DEFAULT log-config
DEFAULT log_config
log_date_format
Type:string
Default:%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S

Defines the format string for %(asctime)s in log records. Default: the value above . This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.

log_file
Type:string
Default:<None>

(Optional) Name of log file to send logging output to. If no default is set, logging will go to stderr as defined by use_stderr. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.

Deprecated Variations

watch_log_file
Type:boolean
Default:false

Uses logging handler designed to watch file system. When log file is moved or removed this handler will open a new log file with specified path instantaneously. It makes sense only if log_file option is specified and Linux platform is used. This option is ignored if log_config_append is set.

Interval, number of seconds, of log rate limiting.

rate_limit_burst
Type:integer
Default:0

Maximum number of logged messages per rate_limit_interval.

rate_limit_except_level
Type:string
Default:CRITICAL

Log level name used by rate limiting: CRITICAL, ERROR, INFO, WARNING, DEBUG or empty string. Logs with level greater or equal to rate_limit_except_level are not filtered. An empty string means that all levels are filtered.

fatal_deprecations
Type:boolean
Default:false

Enables or disables fatal status of deprecations.

ovs_integration_bridge
Type:string
Default:br-int

Name of Open vSwitch bridge to use

ovs_use_veth
Type:boolean
Default:false

Uses veth for an OVS interface or not. Support kernels with limited namespace support (e.g. RHEL 6.5) so long as ovs_use_veth is set to True.

interface_driver
Type:string
Default:<None>

The driver used to manage the virtual interface.

ovs_vsctl_timeout
Type:integer
Default:10

Timeout in seconds for ovs-vsctl commands. If the timeout expires, ovs commands will fail with ALARMCLOCK error.

bridge_mac_table_size
Type:integer
Default:50000

resync_interval
Type:integer
Default:5

The DHCP agent will resync its state with Neutron to recover from any transient notification or RPC errors. The interval is number of seconds between attempts.

Type:string
Default:neutron.agent.linux.dhcp.Dnsmasq

The driver used to manage the DHCP server.

enable_isolated_metadata
Type:boolean
Default:false

The DHCP server can assist with providing metadata support on isolated networks. Setting this value to True will cause the DHCP server to append specific host routes to the DHCP request. The metadata service will only be activated when the subnet does not contain any router port. The guest instance must be configured to request host routes via DHCP (Option 121). This option doesn’t have any effect when force_metadata is set to True.

force_metadata
Type:boolean
Default:false

In some cases the Neutron router is not present to provide the metadata IP but the DHCP server can be used to provide this info. Setting this value will force the DHCP server to append specific host routes to the DHCP request. If this option is set, then the metadata service will be activated for all the networks.

enable_metadata_network
Type:boolean
Default:false

Allows for serving metadata requests coming from a dedicated metadata access network whose CIDR is 169.254.169.254/16 (or larger prefix), and is connected to a Neutron router from which the VMs send metadata:1 request. In this case DHCP Option 121 will not be injected in VMs, as they will be able to reach 169.254.169.254 through a router. This option requires enable_isolated_metadata = True.

num_sync_threads
Type:integer
Default:4

Number of threads to use during sync process. Should not exceed connection pool size configured on server.

dhcp_confs
Type:string
Default:$state_path/dhcp

Default:

Comma-separated list of the DNS servers which will be used as forwarders.

dnsmasq_base_log_dir

dnsmasq_local_resolv
Type:boolean
Default:false

Enables the dnsmasq service to provide name resolution for instances via DNS resolvers on the host running the DHCP agent. Effectively removes the ‘–no-resolv’ option from the dnsmasq process arguments. Adding custom DNS resolvers to the ‘dnsmasq_dns_servers’ option disables this feature.

dnsmasq_lease_max
Type:integer
Default:16777216

Limit number of leases to prevent a denial-of-service.

dhcp_broadcast_reply
Type:boolean
Default:false

Use broadcast in DHCP replies.
