Hello guys,

Quick question about multi-segment provider networks. Let's say I create a network and a subnet this way:

neutron net-create multinet --segments type=dict list=true
provider:physical_network='',provider:segmentation_id=1500,provider:network_type=vxlan
provider:physical_network=physnet_sriov,provider:segmentation_id=2201,provider:network_typ
e=vlan

neutron subnet-create multinet --allocation-pool start=10.100.5.2,end=10.100.5.254 --name
mn-subnet --dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8 10.100.5.0/24

Does it mean, that placing two VMs (with regular virtio interfaces), one in the vxlan segment and one on the vlan segment, would be able to ping each other without the need of a router?

Or would it require an external router that belongs to the owner of the infrastructure?

Thanks in advance!
