John, et al,
I stumbled across this interesting behavior in VXLAN tunnels:
vpp# create vxlan tunnel src 1.2.3.4 dst 10.11.12.13 vni 1 instance 101
vxlan_tunnel101
vpp# create vxlan tunnel src 1.2.3.4 dst 10.11.12.13 vni 1 instance 101 del
vpp# create vxlan tunnel src 1.2.3.4 dst 10.11.12.13 vni 1 instance 101
create vxlan tunnel: Instance is in use
And note the actual interface has been removed, so 101 should be free:
vpp# show int
Name Idx State Counter
Count
TenGigabitEthernet6/0/0 1 down
TenGigabitEthernet6/0/1 2 down
TenGigabitEthernet6/0/2 3 down
TenGigabitEthernet6/0/3 4 down
local0 0 down
I was pretty sure this was working, but I might have botched that patch
somehow?
Any chance you stumbled into this problem?
It might be worth noting that the equivalent GRE does work:
vpp# create gre tunnel src 1.2.3.4 dst 10.11.12.13 instance 14
gre14
vpp# create gre tunnel src 1.2.3.4 dst 10.11.12.13 instance 14 del
DELETED
vpp# create gre tunnel src 1.2.3.4 dst 10.11.12.13 instance 14
gre14
I feel like this might be some typo or easy oversight in the VXLAN case.
Thanks,
jdl
