Hi Razique,

If I get your 1st question correctly, the answer is I am unable to ping the VMs 
from the compute node. The fixed IPs are reachable from the controller node.

For the remaining questions, if it is not inconvenient to you can I know what 
are the precise details and how should I get and share them across?

Thanks,
Krishnaprasad

OK
can you show us:
* The fixed IP you are trying to reach. From the compute node it is running on, 
are you able to ping it?
* $iptables -L -nv -t nat
* What is the floating IP ; does it appear on the iptables' output command?
* If you run $ip addr sh | grep $IP do you see the floating IP? (assuming you 
are using a multi_host mode, is that the case?)

Regards,
Razique

Hi Razique,

They are located on different compute nodes and allow incoming connections. The 
VMs that I referred have a fixed IP address. I could see the eth0 interface and 
it has the fixed IP address.

Are all located on the same compute node?
And all the instances allow incoming connection?

Finally make sure the instance you cannot reach have a private IP assigned (not 
through the dash but check the logs to make sure the instance has indeed an 
interface up ; usually eth0)

I could see a strange behavior. I restarted the nova-compute and nova-network. 
I was able to reach certain floating IPs and few was not. Can I know the reason 
behind this and some pointers to get rid of this problem?

I think that restarting the nova-network and nova-compute services would be 
sufficient :)

Hi,

Thanks for your response. I don't see this setting in my nova.conf. Will it be 
possible for you to describe the complete command of recreating the floating 
IPs with -interface flag?

Narayan,

Are you using multi-host? Is 'public_interface' in your nova.conf set?

Recently we've had similar situation with a customer. Turned out that traffic 
going from VM's fixed IP to floating IP of another VM on the same physical host 
never gets to public interface and thus never SNATed, and response never gets 
back.

We fixed it by unsetting 'public_interface' and re-creating floating IPs with 
--interface=<public_interface> flag. It ensures that all packets from VMs are 
source-translated, and also that floating IPs are assigned to correct interface.

Hope that helps.

Hi all,

Im my OpenStack setup, i am using nova-network to manage the networks. I could 
see that the VMs are unable to communicate between each other via their 
floating IPs.

Can I know what is the reason and how to get rid of the problem?

Thanks,
Krishnaprasad
