VM IP assignment with DHCP uses node IP

[FrancJP (Francisco Picolini)]

Hello @hexamehcimal and welcome to this forum!!

Nice to see a new user trying to test and experiment a bit with OpenNebula, so feel free to ask any question here.

In any case, I would strongly suggest to check our documentation:
https://docs.opennebula.io/6.10/management_and_operations/references/template.html#context-section

There’s also a post that might help you:

Questions about Virtual Networks and DHCP

Hi guys ! I have a question about Virtual Networks, i make an Cloud plateform with OpenNebula for Devs peoples. They will use the Cloud view of Nebula, because i want keep it very simple. But i have trouble to understand Virtual Networks and scpecialy the IP addresses. You can make IPv4 range, who will automaticaly assign IP adresses to new VMs in Sunstone but when you open the machine you don’t have IP. Of course i can give DHCP to my VMs, but that mismatch the IP address in Sunstone. …

And this one:

If that’s not what you were looking, let me know
