compute node 1 and 2 are on two other machines.
br-ex and eth1 are used for VMs to bridge out to physical network.
-VM's cannot talk out to the external network.
-I am using the NOOP firewall driver.
2) If I try to ping out from my instance I can tcpdump and see the ARP request on the compute node and see the ARP in the tap interface, the qbr interface, and the br-ex and eth1 interface on the compute node. I do not see an arp reply. I think the firewall is off as I am using noon and also turned off iptables etc..
Thanks but I am not using GRE or VLANs. I am using FLAT networking with neutron. See ovs_neutron_plugin.ini above. I know it is possible and have done it with NOVA flat networking, but I want to use neutron.
I went ahead a installed devstack (havana) single node which had a neutron localrc config file. It is setup for bridging and does work. It uses the ML2 plugin however.
The question then is can I do the same with the openvswitch plugin?
