Hi Bruno, I just hit the same (or a very similar) issue doing a multinode deployment with RDO on CentOS 6.4 (OVS 1.10) while we had no problem until now using Ubuntu 12.04 (OVS 1.4). Can you please provide some more details about the Linux OS you are using and your multinode configuration?
I tested it with flat and VLAN networks, so far it doesn't look like an Hyper-V related issue.

I can't say for sure, Peter, but I think so... In troubleshooting we did (and are still doing) I can tell that regardless of the network model that we're using (FLAT or VLAN Network), the instance that is provisioned on Hyper-V (for some reason) can't reach the quantum-l3-agent "by default" (I said "default" because, we just managed to do it after a hard, long and boring troubleshoting, yet, we're not sure if that's how it should be done, indeed) Since it's not something quick to explain, I'll present the scenario: (I'm not sure if it might be a candidate for a fix in quantum-l3-agent, so quantum-devs might be interested too) Here's how our network interfaces turns out, in our network controller: ============================== External bridge network ============================== Bridge "br-eth1" Port "br-eth1" Interface "br-eth1" type: internal Port "eth1.11" Interface "eth1.11" Port "phy-br-eth1" Interface "phy-br-eth1" ============================== Internal network ============================== Bridge br-int Port "int-br-eth1" Interface "int-br-eth1" Port br-int Interface br-int type: internal Port "tapb610a695-46" tag: 1 Interface "tapb610a695-46" type: internal Port "qr-ef10bef4-fa" tag: 1 Interface "qr-ef10bef4-fa" type: internal ============================== There's another iface named "br-ex" that we're using for floating_ips, but it has nothing to do with what we're doing right now, so I'm skipping it... ************ So, for the hands-on **************** I know it may be a little bit hard to understand, but I'll do my best trying to explain: 1) the running instance in Hyper-V, which is linked to Hyper-V vSwitch is actually communicating to bridge: "br-eth1" (that is in the network controller). NOTE: That's where the DHCP REQUEST (from the instance) lands 2) The interface MAC Address, of that running instance on Hyper-V, is: fa:16:3e:95:95:e4. (we're gonna use it on later steps) Since DHCP is not fully working yet, we had to manually set an IP for that instance: "10.5.5.3" 3) From that instance interface, the dhcp_broadcast should be forward -> FROM interface "eth1.12" TO "phy-br-eth1" And FROM interface "phy-br-eth1" TO the bridge "br-int" *** THIS IS WHERE THE PACKETS ARE DROPPED ***.

Even though, it is functional, we're not sure if that's how it HAS to be done. May I have your thoughts on it? Should we really have to create those rules/actions in openVSwitch to make the instance (of hyper-v) to reach out DHCP ? It seems either bug or something is wierd in my configurations... May I have your opinions on it? We'd greatly appreciate your feedback.
