Status in neutron: Fix Released Bug description: When i building an IPSec tunnel between two projects (VPNaaS-VPNaaS) everything works fine. But after an random period of time (from 20 minutes to a week), the connection between the end hosts in the opposite local networks disappears. Ping from the end host to the gateways of both local networks passes. For example. There is the following topology: host-loc-1(10.9.9.2/24) - (10.9.9.1/24)VPNaaS1 - VPNaaS2(192.168.10.1/24) - host-loc-2(192.168.10.8/24) When a problem occurs, the address 10.9.9.2 stops pinging 192.168.10.8, but continues to ping 192.168.10.1. VPN connection status is active and the cause of the problem is the loss of iptables rules in the FORWARD chain for the project namespace. Normal condition: """ ip netns exec qrouter-ID iptables -L -n | grep -A 5 "Chain FORWARD" Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination ACCEPT all -- 192.168.10.0/24 10.9.9.0/24 policy match dir in pol ipsec reqid 1 proto 50 ACCEPT all -- 10.9.9.0/24 192.168.10.0/24 policy match dir out pol ipsec reqid 1 proto 50 neutron-filter-top all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 neutron-l3-agent-FORWARD all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 """ Problem state: """ ip netns exec qrouter-ID iptables -L -n | grep -A 5 "Chain FORWARD" Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination neutron-filter-top all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 neutron-l3-agent-FORWARD all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 """ How can I understand why the FORWARD rule disappears?
