Can I see the values set in `ml2_conf.ini` as a regular OpenStack user (non-admin)?

My company uses a managed instance of OpenStack. I am **NOT** an administrator on this instance. There is functionality that OpenStack offers behind the `enable-ml2-dns` configuration options, this is set in the [`ml2_conf.ini`](https://docs.openstack.org/newton/config-reference/networking/samples/ml2_conf.ini.html).

> In order to enable internal DNS resolution, the user must set the `enable-ml2-dns` to True. The default value is False in order to provide backwards compatibility with existing deployments.

Is it possible to find out this setting without being an administrator?

I don't think this is possible. The \*.ini files are usually only configured by the cloud operators.
