             Summary: vxlan doesn't scale
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-4967
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4967
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: KVM
    Affects Versions: 4.3.0
            Reporter: Marcus Sorensen
            Assignee: Toshiaki Hatano
             Fix For: 4.3.0


com.cloud.exception.InternalErrorException: Failed to create vnet 987529:     
inet 172.17.10.10/24 brd 172.17.10.255 scope global cloudbr0Error: an inet 
prefix is expected rather than "239.15.3857.137".Error

It looks like the vxlan implementation doesn't scale correctly with vxlan's 
capabilities. The VNI is supposed to be up to 24 bits (16777216), it should be 
possible to use high VNI numbers. The script 'modifyvxlan.sh' seems to do this:

local mcastGrp="239.$(( $vxlanId >> 16 % 256 )).$(( $vxlanId >> 8 % 256 )).$(( 
$vxlanId % 256 ))"

$vlanid >> 8 %256 (and similar) may need to be ($vxlanId >> 8) % 256
