thank you, Uwe. our provider network actually is untagged, but I did specified VLAN ID when I create our external network and everything still works. will this cause issue later on?

If it is untagged (the switch port is an "access" port) then you don't specify the VLAN ID for the external network (as it will get tagged by the switch). If the provider network is tagged (the switch port is a "trunk" port) then you have to configure the VLAN ID because the switch might refuse the traffic (depending if there is a default VLAN ID defined on the switch's port).

If so, does it has to match external network? For example, we only have one external VLAN we can use as Our provider network and that VLAN id is 775 (xxx.xxx.xxx.0/26). Should I define network_vlan_ranges as following?

Is this correct? I understand provider network is for instance to get external access to internet, but how is instance live on compute1 communicate with instance live on compute2? are they also go through provider network? In short, yes. If you’re connecting instances to vlan “provider” networks, traffic between instances on different compute nodes will traverse the “provider bridge”, get tagged out eth1, and hit the physical switching fabric. Your external gateway device could also sit in that vlan, and the default route on the instance would direct external traffic to that device. In reality, every network has ‘provider’ attributes that describe the network type, segmentation id, and bridge interface (for vlan/flat only). So tenant networks that leverage vlans would have provider attributes set by Neutron automatically based on the configuration set in the ML2 config file. If you use Neutron routers that connect to both ‘tenant’ vlan-based networks and external ‘provider’ networks, all of that traffic could traverse the same provider bridge on the controller/network node, but would be tagged accordingly based on the network (ie. vlan 100 for external network, vlan 200 for tenant network). Hope that’s not too confusing!
