There are tons of questions and answers about instances not receiving DHCP, but after following the suggestions of most of them, I haven't found any solution to my problem yet.

I followed the documentation step by step, I get to launch instances which gets an IPs assigned on "nova list" but do not get configured automatically by dhcp. As a difference with the most of the other posts I found, I don't get any "gre" in ovs-vsctl show.

My set up:

CentOS 7 + Kilo
3x (KVM) VMs (controller, network, compute), 3 virtual networks (NAT)
10.0.0.0/24 management (eth0)
10.0.1.0/24 tunnel (eth1)
10.0.2.0/24 storage/external (eth2)

From network node:

ip netns
qdhcp-5eaa4c63-1d6b-4e37-914b-2d2660176e82
qrouter-d8d24185-9caf-4540-bb66-02a804df29d6

Ping gateway of the "demo-net":

ip netns exec qdhcp-5eaa4c63-1d6b-4e37-914b-2d2660176e82 ping -c1 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.915 ms

The dhcp server (192.168.1.2) also answers, and they both answer also from the qrouter namespace.

brtcl show outputs nothing

ip netns exec qdhcp-5eaa4c63-1d6b-4e37-914b-2d2660176e82 netstat -anp

I seem to be missing the "gre" in the tunnel, but how do I get it up?

My configuration is point by point the one in the RHEL Kilo documentation, so I guess there very few things I might have done wrong. I also don't get any error message on the logs.

Some additional outputs..
