Hi,
I have one basic question, what is this tunneled over to network node means ? 
(" At this point, the packet will go back out to br-int and but tunneled over 
to the network node just like any other intra-network traffic.")
What kind of tunnel between Compute to Network Node during SNAT ? 
Why tunneling  will happen during NAT ?

Thanks & regards,
Keshava.A

Hi,

I found this message in my backlog from when I was at the summit.
Sorry for the delay in responding.

The "default SNAT" or "dynamic SNAT" use case is one of the last details being 
worked in the DVR subteam.  That may be why you do not see any code around this 
in the patches that have been submitted.
Outbound traffic that will use this SNAT address will first enter the IR on the 
compute host.  In the IR, it will not match against any of the static SNAT 
addresses for floating IPs.  At that point the packet will be redirected to 
another port belonging to the central component of the DVR.  This port has an 
IP address  different from the default gateway address (e.g. 192.168.1.2 
instead of 192.168.1.1).  At this point, the packet will go back out to br-int 
and but tunneled over to the network node just like any other intra-network 
traffic.

Once the packet hits the central component of the DVR on the network node it 
will be processed very much like default SNAT traffic is processed in the 
current Neutron implementation.  Another "interconnect subnet" should not be 
needed here and would be overkill.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have any questions.

Carl
