<div dir="ltr">Hi Steven,<div><br></div><div>I apologize - I missed your previous message. I just re-read this thread and I misunderstood your original intention. As with Lorin, I haven't tried this myself, but let's see how far we get.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you're using OVS for bridging, do you have the brcompat module loaded? This will enable compatibility with the Linux kernel bridge which nova-network uses. You can verify that OVS has translated its bridge into a linux kernel bridge by using the standard "brctl" tool.</div>
<div><br></div><div>In your /etc/network/interfaces file, you have eth4 configured as static, but no further attributes. If you want to enable the interface but not configure it with an IP, try changing "static" to "manual".</div>
<div><br></div><div>Next, are you using vlanmanager in nova-network? If so, then continue using the --vlan flag. If the goal is to have the physical interface mapped directly (or as close to directly as possible) to your instance, make sure you choose the vlan that the physical interface is connected to.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Hope that helps,</div><div>Joe</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, May 3, 2013 at 11:57 AM, Steven Barnabas <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sbarnabas@frontporch.com" target="_blank">sbarnabas@frontporch.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
