Hi all,
I have get this working this morning. The settings have no problem, but I
didn't get the order right on first try.
Here is the correct order:
1. create network resources, but do not connect them to router yet.
create ext-net, net1/subnet1, net2/subnet2
2. create router1
3. config router_id in l3-agent1, restart l3-agent1
5. create router2
6. config router_id in l3-agent2, restart l3-agent2
7. add ports to the router, namely:
run router-interface-add and router-gateway-set for router1;
run router-interface-add and router-gateway-set for router2.
The key point is do not add any port to router until you have set router_id
in all l3-agents and restart them.
On first try, I have run router-gateway-set too early for router2.
Thanks Ageeleshwar, Gustavo for your advices.
To Gustavo: I set different router_id in different l3_agent.ini, that's the
whole point of this setup.
To Ageeleshwar: I am aware of that setup. Note however, in my setup, two
routers share the ext-net, they just use different l3-agent to do NAT. This
is a little different from using two ext-nets and two router. Because
neutron could not infer which l3-agent to use by the ext-net id when you do
router-gateway-set. I have tried two ext-net with two router setup before,
it works as expected. So that information should be helpful for others.
Make sure in gateway_external_network_id config, you should use uuid
instead of ext-net name though.
