Hi, thanks for the info, it helped me going a bit further with this.
I did not have anything configured regarding vif in my nova.conf file on my compute node. So i tried putting the following : libvirt_vif_driver=nova.virt.libvirt.vif.LibvirtGenericVIFDriver libvirt_ovs_bridge=br-int libvirt_use_virtio_for_bridges=true in my nova.conf config file on my compute node but it did not help. So i wanted to have a better look at the neutron logs but, they were full of : 'iptables-restore: line 62 failed\n' messages so, it was a bit hard to figure something out. So i tried to disable the firewall driver, by changing : firewall_driver = neutron.agent.linux.iptables_firewall.OVSHybridIptablesFirewallDriver to : firewall_driver = neutron.agent.firewall.NoopFirewallDriver in my ovs_neutron_plugin.ini config file and surprisingly, it started working, the port is tagged automatically. That brings me to my next question, why would the port be tagged correctly with firewall_driver set to neutron.agent.firewall.NoopFirewallDriver but not with neutron.agent.linux.iptables_firewall.OVSHybridIptablesFirewallDriver ?! @Ageeleshwar Kandavelu I don't have physical interfaces on my integration bridge, just on my normal (first) bridge (in my case br0).
