IPv4: martian source 10.129.247.4 from 10.129.247.5, on dev br-ex
ll header: 00000000: ff ff ff ff ff ff fa 16 3e e7 97 7a 08 06
on the compute nodes running neutron ovs agent.
if i hunt down the mac address in my port-list, it is my 'ext-net', the
network that is used to reach my physical network. its created as:
neutron net-create --shared --router:external=True ext-net
neutron subnet-create --name ext-subnet \
--host-route destination=$CONTROL_IP/32,nexthop=$DATA_IP \
--dns-nameserver $DATA_IP \
--disable-dhcp \
ext-net $BR_EX_IP
so i have to believe this is related.
the blade complaining about this is 247.5, and all of the others (247.4,
247.3 etc) are present in the log.
so if i read this correctly, a broadcast from my 'ext-net' port is arriving
with the src-ip/dest-ip filled in
so:
src-mac: ext-net
dst-mac: all 1 broadcast
src-ip: slot X
dst-ip: slot 4
?
