As usual, “rubber ducking” the openstack-discuss list yielded fruit. It turns out that I didn’t have the l2population mechanism driver enabled. I thought this was optional for some reason. It looks like enabling this and restarting the neutorn-openvswitch-agent has fixed connectivity! /Jason

Hello stackers,
I’m interested in using zun to launch containers and assign floating IPs via neutron to those containers. I am deploying zun, kuryr-libnetwork, and neutron with kolla-ansible on the Train release. I’ve configured neutron with one physical network and I’d like to use a VXLAN overlay for tenant networks.
What works: - I can launch containers on a neutron tenant network, they start successfully, they get an IP and can reach each other if they’re co-located on a single host. - I can create all my neutron networks, routers, subnets, without (obvious) errors. - I can update security groups on the container and see the iptables rules updated appropriately. - I can directly create Docker networks using the kuryr driver/type.
What doesn’t work: - I can’t see any vxlan ports on the br-tun OVS bridge - I can’t access the exposed container ports from the control/network node via the router netns - Because of that, I can’t assign floating IPs because NAT effectively won’t work to reach the containers
The fact that there are no ports on br-tun is supicious, but I’m not sure how this is supposed to work. I don’t see anything weird in neutron-openvswitch-agent logs but those logs are quite noisy and I’m not sure what to look for.
Has anybody deployed such a setup / are there limitations I should know about?
Thank you!
