Same issue after restarting the agent

From the ovs-vswitchd log:

So what am I doing incorrectly? I'm following the blog post from https://cloudbase.it/open-vswitch-2-5...

2016-02-26 22:37:05 +0300 commented answer external IP address unavailable after openvswitch starts

I'm really at a loss here. icmp traffic is blocked to the target IP, arp traffics seems blocked, dhcp requests across the xvlan tunnel do not work. I do not know where else to troubleshoot. Any help would be appreciated.

2016-02-26 00:32:20 +0300 commented answer external IP address unavailable after openvswitch starts

There are three NICs in use. One is for 'public/internet" access. This is not used for openstack. The second is the openstack management interface also not used by OVS. The third and the one in question here for OVS is the interface to be used for vxlan bridging...

2016-02-25 17:26:32 +0300 commented answer external IP address unavailable after openvswitch starts

I did do as suggested. The IP address was then available but no traffic was routed over the vxlan tunnels. I have reverted to the original configuration

2016-02-25 01:45:05 +0300 commented question external IP address unavailable after openvswitch starts

If I add a flow in table 0 at priority 1 or two with an action of NORMAL I am again able to ping the other endpoints. However, that prevents the packet from reaching table 10 which should be the VXLAN learning flow (or at least that is my understanding) I'm not sure what I am missing...

2016-02-24 22:02:19 +0300 commented answer external IP address unavailable after openvswitch starts

the external interface may be a misnomer as it is the interface used for the vxlan tunnels. The public interface with internet access is a separate adapter. I added the flow and other OVS information at the end of the original post. What I seem to be seeing is packets being dropped by the flows

2016-02-23 22:55:27 +0300 asked a question external IP address unavailable after openvswitch starts

I seem to be having an issue with getting openvswitch configured properly. I am able to setup the OVS bridges br-tun and br-int with no issue and I can ping both the local IP (10.0.2.22) and the other vxlan endpoint (10.0.2.35) with no issue. However once I start the agent the IPs stop responding. The only way I can recover is to stop the agent and remove/readd br-tun.

When I start the agent the vxlan tunnel is created does not seem to work. The other end is a Centos 7.2 Liberty setup and I have successfully run another Centos 7.2 compute node using OVS and vxlan...

Here is the ovs-vsctl show:

        Port br-int
            Interface br-int
                type: internal

I'm not sure how to continue to debug this...


Here is the OVS config:
