[Openstack-operators] While adding external bridge connection lost to the network node

Correct.  You need to updated your /etc/interfaces file so that the 192.168.122.54/24 address gets assigned to br-ex instead of eth0.

Hi Britt,

Thanks for the answer.

I am using Virtual machine(KVM) for openstack installation. Its a single node installation.

Now i can create instance from openstack dahboard and and can login in to the instance from dashboard konsole.

But i couln't connect to instance from controller node.

Also i couldn't have connection between instances.

======================================

Same eth0 i have used to add br-ex, you mean thats the issue right?

Was the interface you added to br-ex the same interface to which you connected to the box?  If so, this is expected.  When you add an interface to the bridge you lose IP connectivity to that interface.  The IP address which which was assigned to the interface now needs to be assigned to the br-ex bridge, and then you'll have connectivity once again.

Thx,

Subject: [Openstack-operators] While adding external bridge connection lost to the network node

Hi Team,

While adding external bridge connection lost to the network node from other nodes. we couldn't ssh to network node after creating bridge.


If we do below steps of following link

http://docs.openstack.org/icehouse/install-guide/install/apt/content/neutron-ml2-network-node.html

===========================================
3) Add the external bridge:

# ovs-vsctl add-br br-ex

4) Add a port to the external bridge that connects to the physical
external network interface:

Replace INTERFACE_NAME with the actual interface name. For example, eth2
or ens256.

# ovs-vsctl add-port br-ex INTERFACE_NAME
=============================================

External connection to network node fails. Then we couldn't connect to network node from other machines.


Any one faced this issue?

Please help us to fix this issue.
