I am using neutron openvswitch plugin. I successfully created a port using neutron port-create, but I do not see the newly created port when I do 'ovs-vsctl show'.
Is it that the port created is just a logical entity that just exists only in DB and only when a VM is launched It is created in openvswitch?
Looks like no one from openstack is active here. And also there were a lot a places to ask questions regarding neutron and openstack. I posted my question to openstack mailing list and found that port-create only create a port in db. I am still tracking the issue in the below link so if any one is curious please visit here.

I am trying to install openstack on a single node server.
I need to access Instances from internet.
I am new to openstack, so I spent some time trying to get it work correctly but without success. I tried devstack but it is not persistent after reboot.
For microstack, it is not configurable.
I need to assign Public IPs to instances. I have 2 physical networks. I tried with external network, but I don't found an option how to do that.
Did anyone successfully installed openstack on a single machine, and is there a way to expose instances to bring them puclic IPs from a pool.
Thanks in advance.
I have successfully deployed openstack packstack (all-in-one) in single VM. I'm running Centos7 VM. Everything work well and able to instantiate VM over native OVS networking.
I plan to have OVS-DPDK enable in my openstack. I have gone through some documentation but still not clear how to enable it. I understand Openstack Queens OVS is already DPDK support.I have seen people asking the same but no answer and I would like again to request on how I can have DPDK support to be enabled over my running openstack. Few method to change neutron configuration file or by deploying SDN controller. Hope no need to redeploy..anyway further advise would be much appreciated.
This is my current ovs version:-
ovs-vswitchd --version
ovs-vswitchd (Open vSwitch) 2.11.0
DPDK 18.11.0
I really appreciated your help and support to my question.
Please assist. Thank you
Openstack and OVS are 2 different processes, which communicates via openflow rules. That is using neutron plugin which is used in OpenStack needs to configured for the ports in use. In OVS one needs to start with controller IP openstack neutron controller. Hence changes are listed as
use neutron or similar plugin for network configuration.
updated the neutron plugin config file for desired ports for OVS.
OVS vswitchd is started with IP address of controller.
Note: OVS binary needs to be build with DPDK libraries for having DPDK support. Do not expect by installing DPDK on the distro the OVS binary will become DPDK supported.
I have 2 aws ec2 instances and facing reach-ability issue from one instance to another. Have checked for SG, IGW, and it looks fine. Have also added subnet in /etc/hosts.allow to allow the hosts.
Can someone please suggest how to debug this reach-ability issue ?
I'm trying with
telnet <ip of other ec2 instance> <port>
from one ec2 instance to check if one instance is able to connect to open port where service is running of other instance.
Can capturing packet trace from source and destination will help? If yes, what will be the command for it ?
I have a barebones PC with 6 physical interfaces to 'play' around with devstack. I'd like to deploy VMs on it and connect them to different Ethernet interfaces. Currently, I'm only able to use the interface associated to the br-ex bridge. I've tried to define several OVS bridges and assign the physical interfaces to different bridges. I try to define a mapping with more than one bridge, but that doesn't seem to work.
Has anyone had any success on this.
Thanks, /PA
You will need to create "provider networks", which allow you to associate neutron networks with specific physical interfaces. You can find documentation on creating provider networks in the install guide.
Once everything is configured correctly, you can attach new Nova servers to your provider networks by passing the appropriate --network argument when you boot a new server.
I am trying to setup a Kaa cluster with 3 kaa-node servers. I would like to know whether each node (bootstrap service & operations_service) must have its own public IP address？ Otherwise the endpoint will not be able to access them？
But I have only one Public IP address & one Domain Name. Each node has it's own local ip address. How can I setup this kaa-cluster?
on each node:
open kaa-node.properties file at /etc/kaa-node/conf directory.
change thrift_host and transport_public_interface properties onto the local IP address.
Then you need to integrate kaa-node with the following services:
Zookeeper, SQL and NoSQL databases.
For more information, refer to the following documentation page.
As alternative, you are able to setup kaa cluster using docker environment. Also, look to the documentation page.
Please, take into account that docker extension is supported from kaa 0.10 version.
