how to reach 169.254.169.254
Hi ,
I am developing my own virtual machine image which is basically a linux from scratch(custom proprietary linux) .(not redhat or ubuntu etc)
I am able to boot my image and get the ip address through dhcp etc.But I am not able to get the metadata using the url "169.254.169.254" .
What are the changes needs to be done for getting the metadata.
I have added the route for link-local.The routes are as follows
10.x.x.x * eth0 169.254.0.0 * eth0 default 10.x.x.x eth0
PS: A redhat image in the same network is able to get the metadata.so i think it has nothing to do with openstack setup
Are you able to hit the IP from the instance? All of the other images are using cloud-init with other tools that are looking for user-data to pull in information about the instance:

which version of OpenStack are you using? Which style of networking?
Havana. neutron + vlan
I am able to hit the ip address.But I can see the arp resolve shows different destination mac address between the 2 instances.
