Can you session into dhcp namespace to run tcpdump on that tap interface to see 
if the dhcp traffic is been exchanged between dns process and VM?

<xiaohong....@emc.com<mailto:xiaohong....@emc.com>>:
You have to start with the dhcp problem first in your case. “ip netns” on your 
controller node should list a dhcp name space,

ip netns
qdhcp-3fc234e5-335f-463d-ba1d-bcf1bdd8f479
qrouter-6df76d30-17fc-4024-8d01-4cfe007ab531

then session into that dhcp name space,

sudo ip netns exec qdhcp-3fc234e5-335f-463d-ba1d-bcf1bdd8f479 ifconfig

it should list a tap interface,

tapef85f5c3-c5 Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr fa:16:3e:53:ad:f2

then check the dnsmasq is launched against that interface,

dnsmasq --no-hosts --no-resolv --strict-order --bind-interfaces 
--interface=tapef85f5c3-c5 -

everything on the controller behaves the same as you mentioned. and I don't 
have problem on instances running on the controller node. only those in compute 
node have network problem.


Also I don’t see ovs physical bridge is been created in your show table.

do you mean br-ex? the output is from the compute node. I thought there are 
only br-tun and br-int on the compute node.
I also manually created a bridge to compare with those created by openstack and 
I can see vxlan packets being sent out through physical NIC. I don't understand 
what the difference is. here is what I did

# ip tuntap add mode tap vnet0
# ip link set vnet0 up
# ovs-vsctl add-br br-vxlan
# ovs-vsctl add-port br-vxlan vnet0
# ovs-vsctl add-port br-vxlan tep0 -- set interface tep0 type=vxlan 
options:remote_ip=172.31.0.125
# qemu-system-x86_64 -m 64 -net nic -net 
tap,ifname=vnet0,script=no,downscript=no -hda cirros-0.3.2-x86_64-disk.img 
-display vnc=:1

when I ran ping in the guest VM, I can capture vxlan packets carrying ARP 
requests on eth0 of the host. output of ovs-vsctl show of my manually created 
bridge is as follows

    Bridge br-vxlan
        Controller "tcp:172.31.0.125:6633<http://172.31.0.125:6633>"
        Port "vnet0"
            Interface "vnet0"
        Port "tep0"
            Interface "tep0"
                type: vxlan
                options: {remote_ip="172.31.0.125"}
        Port br-vxlan
            Interface br-vxlan
                type: internal
but ovs-ofctl dump-flows shows nothing
