Do you have external_network_bridge set to an empty value in the l3 agent config? If not, the l3 agent will use a legacy mode of wiring up the port and it's status field may not be ACTIVE. The routers are tested thousands of times in the gate every day, so they work. It's just a matter of getting your configuration correct. Yes, you can use a VM to route as well.
