This IP may not be reachable remotely, especially if the default route on the Undercloud is a different interface, or if the Undercloud is actually a VM running in a virt-host. In those cases, I usually set up local port forwarding via SSH. This allows me to access the Horizon dashboard, and provides encryption so the username/password doesn't traverse the wire in cleartext (when not running SSL on the Undercloud). ssh -L 9000:<br-ctlplane_ip>:8080 stack@undercloud_external_ip Then you can connect to http://localhost:9000/ to access the dashboard. You can even nest these if you are using a virtualized Undercloud: >From virt-host: ssh -L 9500:<br-ctlplane_ip>:8080 stack@undercloud_external_ip >From your workstation: ssh -L 9000:localhost:9500 stack@virt-host Then when you connect to port 9000 locally it gets forwarded to port 9050 on the virt-host, which is a tunnel to port 8080 on the Undercloud VM. You can add "-nNT" before the -L in the ssh commands if you just want to create the tunnel without connecting to a remote shell when you issue the ssh command. The other (potentially less secure) option is to reconfigure Apache on the Undercloud to listen on all interfaces, and then connect directly to the IP on the Undercloud interface with the default route. A similar option is to disable reverse path filtering [1], and then connect directly to the br-ctlplane interface. This will only work if the Undercloud is directly reachable (usually not possible if using a VM undercloud). These methods should only be used in production when SSL is enabled, because the passwords shouldn't be sent in the clear.
