Open Stack

Hi all:

I set up openstack with quantum successfully, but I use floodlight as the
network controller, VMs can not ping their gateway.

I use a host as compute/network controller(30.0.0.1), and another host as a
compute node(30.0.0.11). The VM X address is 100.0.0.7 and the subnet
gateway G is 100.0.0.1. I use namespace to isolate networks (floodlight
restproxy seems not to support namespace, but I use floodligt standalone)

When X is pinging G, I can see gateway responses a ARP ack:

root at controller:/usr/src/floodlight# ip netns exec
qrouter-7bde1209-e8ed-4ae6-a627-efaa148c743c tcpdump -nn -i qr-8af2e01f-bb

18:52:34.769149 ARP, Reply 100.0.0.1 is-at fa:16:3e:f7:3d:5e, length 28

But when I listen to the bridge br-int or physical interface eth2, no ARP
reply is heard:

After I delete the controller from openvswitch and restart openvswithes,
VMs can ping their gateway. I do not what causes the problem

Can anyone give me some resources how the namespace and bridges work
together.
