Use ssh_host instead of floating ip for openstack builder

[Eike Isermann]

Hi there,

we are successfully using packer to build our machine images in a customers private cloud. Recently we started to set up a new environment where floating IPs lie in a network not directly accessible from our gateway - so there is a NAT-routing for each of the floating IPs.

Now if we want provision a new image I'd like to assign the correct floating IP but use the NAT IP to connect via ssh for provisioning. Simply setting  communicator: "ssh" and  "ssh_host": *nat_ip* does not work as it seems to get overridden by the existing floating_ip. Does anybody have an advice on how to deal with this situation?

Thanks & best regards

Eike

Have you experimented with ssh_interface? 

ssh_host doesn't have the highest priority that is a bug. Please report an issue on github.
