subnet

A subnet is a block of IP addresses and associated configuration state. Subnets are used to allocate IP addresses when new ports are created on a network.

--use-default-subnet-pool

Use default subnet pool for --ip-version

--prefix-length <prefix-length>

Prefix length for subnet allocation from subnet pool

--subnet-range <subnet-range>

Subnet range in CIDR notation (required if --subnet-pool is not specified, optional otherwise)

--allocation-pool start=<ip-address>,end=<ip-address>

Allocation pool IP addresses for this subnet e.g.: start=192.168.199.2,end=192.168.199.254 (repeat option to add multiple IP addresses)

--dhcp

Enable DHCP (default)

--no-dhcp

Disable DHCP

--dns-nameserver <dns-nameserver>

DNS server for this subnet (repeat option to set multiple DNS servers)

--gateway <gateway>

Specify a gateway for the subnet. The three options are: <ip-address>: Specific IP address to use as the gateway, ‘auto’: Gateway address should automatically be chosen from within the subnet itself, ‘none’: This subnet will not use a gateway, e.g.: --gateway 192.168.9.1, --gateway auto, --gateway none (default is ‘auto’).

--host-route destination=<subnet>,gateway=<ip-address>

--ip-version {4,6}

IP version (default is 4). Note that when subnet pool is specified, IP version is determined from the subnet pool and this option is ignored.

--description <description>

--network-segment <network-segment>

Network segment to associate with this subnet (name or ID)

--service-type <service-type>

Service type for this subnet e.g.: network:floatingip_agent_gateway. Must be a valid device owner value for a network port (repeat option to set multiple service types)

--network <network>

Network this subnet belongs to (name or ID)

<name>

Name of subnet to create

openstack subnet delete
    <subnet> [<subnet> ...]
<subnet>
