Hi Joseph, Razique,
Thank you for response. I tried adding security-groups from dashboard, but
it doesnt help. I was trying to spoof a VM instance with spoof source MAC
and spoof source IP, but the packet is not reaching br-int. If I give
proper source MAC and proper source IP, the packet reaches br-int and
things work normal. I observed Openstack stops spoof packets which are
not originating from VM instance before reaching br-int (at tap interface).
I need help to send a spoof packet from VM. Is there any way to disable
iptable rules.
Also adding security group rules using command line and using dash-board
are they same?
Thanks,
Shiva
