[octavia][neutron] ask about LB with DVR
Hello guys. I see that more and more people use Octavia but it depends on network nodes which cause bottlenecks or single point of failure . I would like to know if we have some plan to make Octavia works without network nodes. Thank you. Nguyen Huu Khoi
Hi Nguyễn, I think there is some confusion. Octavia does not rely on network nodes, neutron LBaaS did, but Octavia uses service VMs instead of launching processes on the network nodes. If you are referring to the neutron bugs when using DVR on the OVS ML2, I understand the workaround was to route some traffic through network nodes. However, if you do not use DVR with OVS, such as using OVN or disabling DVR, this workaround in neutron is not needed.

Hello Michael. Thank you for the information. I ask about LBasS. It depends on network nodes too much. Is there any plan to eliminate this single point of failure? I know this needs to change code and logic. I just would like to have information. On Sat, Jan 6, 2024, 1:39 AM Michael Johnson <johnsomor@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Nguyễn, Octavia, the current LBaaS project, does not depend on network nodes any more than any other VM instance in the cloud. There is no "single point of failure". Michael On Fri, Jan 5, 2024 at 4:26 PM Nguyễn Hữu Khôi <nguyenhuukhoinw@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi. I get it. I misunderstand it because I hope floating it work with octavia without network nodes. Thank you. On Mon, Jan 8, 2024, 11:28 PM Michael Johnson <johnsomor@gmail.com> wrote:
