Ok that's what I try right now. But I don't get how to setup something
like a VxLAN provider Network. I thought only vlan and flat is supported
as provider network? I guess it is not possible to use the tunnel
interface that is used for tenant networks?
So I have to create a separated VxLAN on the control and compute nodes like:
# ip link add vxoctavia type vxlan id 42 dstport 4790 group 239.1.1.1
dev vlan3535 ttl 5
# ip addr add 172.16.1.11/20 dev vxoctavia
# ip link set vxoctavia up
and use it like a flat provider network, true?
