host internal management network
Hi,

I have few queries regarding Host Internal Management Network (HIMN).
I see that ip range used for HIMS is 169.254.*.* and dom0 always get
IP 169.254.0.1 for the interface connected to HIMS. Is this IP range
and dom0 IP are statically assigned and will remain same for
compatibility reason? Or can this IP range and dom0 IP can be changed
dynamically? And similarly is there an xenapi to retrieve the dom0 IP
for interface connecting HIMN (if it can be dynamic)?

thanks,
Shakeel

The IP range is configurable using other-config keys. I think dom0 always gets the first IP in the range. Take a look here: https://github.com/xapi-project/xen-api/blob/master/apis/udhcp.md.

Cheers,
