The Abiquo service network is a VLAN network that includes the following virtual network types:

...

  • ISC DHCP servers: 

    • Abiquo remotely manages ISC DHCP Servers, so the DHCP server will always lease the right IP to the MAC address on a VM.

    • The Network Administrator Administrator configures the DHCP server or relay server so server so that it listens to VLANs and can be reached over a network from the VMs (on the service network) so they can obtain the IP leases. See  Automatically configuring one DHCP relay server

    • Abiquo recommends the use of a DHCP relay server to provide VLAN support. See Configuring DHCP  in the Administrator's Guide for information about how Abiquo uses DHCP

  • SDN integrations:

    • Abiquo will create private networks and assign IP addresses using the DHCP server of the SDN system

  • Guest setup:

    • Abiquo can inject the network connection into a VM using cloud-init or hypervisor tools, which requires templates that support these methods.
      Abiquo will use this option if the DHCP server is not found
