<blockquote type="cite"><div class="plaintext" style="white-space: pre-wrap;">As far as I know, bridge_mapping is used to let neutron know which
bridge should be uses for the (possibly more than one) external network(s).
If someone else could jump in and give a bit more detail, I'd appreciate
that, too.

<blockquote> Hi Uwe,
really I started directly with neutron. Never gone with legacy.
But I suppose there's old config laying around. I still think that
bridge_mapping is needed for VLAN config I use. Every paper describes
GRE config, but I still feel more confortable using VLANs.
Any other help about this issue? Can someone confirm if I can get rid of
the directives in both configs?
I suppose I cannot because they get in effect when started the ovs plugin.
Thank you in advance.

<blockquote> Hi, I presume that you upgraded from an older version that used
nova-network (now called legacy networking). Using neutron means that
VMs aren't connected to br0 directly any more as there is a whole
virtual networking infrastructure in place. To give a small overview:
On a compute node a VM connects to br-int (integration bridge). This
bridge itself is connected through a virtual cable to br-tun
(tunneling bridge). That bridge has also assigned a physical interface
that allows traffic to flow to the network node On the network node
there also exists a br-tun that has a physical interface attached.
Through this inferface traffic enters the node. br-tun is virtually
connected to br-ex that has a separate physical interface attached
that connects to "the outside", meaning the networking infrastructure
outside your cloud. I cannot help you with the configuration issue but
recommend that you familiarize yourself with neutron. Regards, Uwe Am

Hi all, I'm installing a new compute node from scratch and
reviewing all old config. I've found two setting that seems equal,
one in ml2 plugin and one in openvswitch. But I don't really
understand why they are. ovs_neutron_plugin.ini: bridge_mappings =
default:br0,extnet1:br-ex ml2/ml2_conf.ini: [ovs] bridge_mappings
= default:br0,extnet1:br-ex For me it's strange the settings are
in both places. I think this is a result of upgrading without
taking much care of removing old config. But also it's strange
that everything works with the bridges br0 and br-ex without
physical interface. I mean, seems to do nothing but it needs to be
there. Also I should expect VM be attached to br0 (Default) but
it's not, they are attached to the br-int (integration bridge),
for me this is correct. Since it's described here like this:
<a href="https://openstack.redhat.com/Networking_in_too_much_detail">https://openstack.redhat.com/Networking_in_too_much_detail</a> And
works ok. So what's the purporse of these bridges? Here is:
neutron 2.3.4 nova 2.17.0 Best regards,
