Folks,

I am trying to set up the following lab and so far everything looks good
and working but I have some doubts or questions to make sure it's really
working as
expected.

Lab Ref:
https://ltomasbo.wordpress.com/2021/06/25/openstack-networking-with-evpn/

rack-1-host-1 (controller)
rack-1-host-2 (compute1 - This is hosting cr-lrp ports, inshort router)
rack-2-host-1 (compute2)

I have created two vms

vagrant at rack-1-host-1:~$ nova list
nova CLI is deprecated and will be a removed in a future release

# on rack-1-host-2
when i spun up vm2 which endup on rack-1-host-2 hence it created vrf-2001
on dummy lo-2001 interface and exposed vm2 ip address 10.0.0.86/32

96: vrf-2001: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65575 qdisc noqueue state UP
group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 22:cc:25:b3:7b:96 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
97: br-2001: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue

# on rack-2-host-1
when i created vm1 which endup on rack-2-host-1 but it doesn't expose the
vm ip address. Is that normal behavior?

When I attach a floating ip to vm2 then why does my floating ip address not
get exposed in BGP?

Thank you in advance
