I have a system which is happily using vxlan type driver on icehouse on ml2 / ovs.
I would now like to take on of the physical interfaces (eth1) and make it available in a 'tap' to a specific instance. Imagine running 'snort' here. So i added the 'type_driver' flat: [ml2] type_drivers = vxlan,flat,local tenant_network_types = vxlan mechanism_drivers = openvswitch I added the bridge_mapping in ovs (this i'm not sure of given the tunnel_type=vxlan?) [ovs] tenant_network_type = vxlan tunnel_type = vxlan tunnel_id_ranges = 1:1000 integration_bridge = br-int tunnel_bridge = br-tun local_ip = 172.16.100.2 bridge_mappings = physnet1:br-ex,eth1:br-eth1,eth3:br-eth3 enable_tunneling=True I ran ovs-vsctl add-br br-eth1 ovs-vsctl add-port br-eth1 eth1 and I ran: neutron net-create --shared --provider:network_type=flat --provider:physical_network=br-eth1 eth1 so far so good. But i cannot get an instance to bind to this network. I've tried manually creating a port and using --nic port-id=, i've tried letting it add it. But i get Unexpected vif_type=binding_failed no matter what i do. In nova.conf I have libvirt_vif_driver=nova.virt.libvirt.vif.LibvirtHybridOVSBridgeDriver and i have port security disable fwiw. Do someone have a recipe they want to share for this? Obviously this works best on an 'all-in-one' which is what I have. Is someone else out there having an instance directly bound to a physical port via a bridge? _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
