How to change/avoid the periodicity of leasing ip messages in the nova-network.log

you can change the lease time on line 423 of linux_net. (120s leases). this should be a flag. I definitely remember putting in a flag at some point, but apparently it got lost. The advantage of keeping the lease short is that you can actually do db introspection to find out if a server is still up. Another option is to remove the debug statements by by using ---noverbose or -default_log_levels
for example, you could add nova.network.manager=INFO to the default log levels list to silence debug messages from that part of the code.
