Hi Anil,

Could you check the /etc/neutron/neutron.conf to make sure you are not using 
flow classifiers drivers=ovs? You can also check your DB schema to make sure it 
is not old and does not have the check for source port. 
Another alternative is to use the latest code and also make sure your DB is 
migrated to the latest DB. If you still see the problem, could you send out the 
log?  

Thanks,
Cathy

Hi Cathy,

I am using the networking-odl sfc driver in my setup and that does require the 
logical_port for the classifier, although i am using around one month old 
networking-sfc master branch code. Is this something recently changed ?

Thanks
Anil

Subject: [tacker] [networking-sfc] Removing required port-id from classifier



Hi Cathy,

I recall a while back discussing removing the required neutron port-id from the 
classifier.



Cathy> Do you mean logical source port here?

trozet> yeah the neutron_source_port seems required.



Cathy> This is only required if the backend is OVS SFC driver (not required if 
it is ODL SFC driver or other drivers). There are several reasons for this. For 
example, without neutron source port being specified, we have to install flow 
classification rules on every compute node to catch the traffic flow from the 
source and scalability will be a big issue if there are thousands of compute 
nodes. Another example is that if two tenants use a shared network and each has 
its flow originating from different source VMs and going through its own SFC in 
the shared network, OVS needs different logical source ports to distinguish 
different tenants' traffic flow. Is there any reason why you can not specify a 
neutron source port?





We just finished up implementing VNFFG in Tacker and are hitting this while 
testing.  What is the plan to remove this requirement?  Also, how are IETF 
SFC/NSH related API/plugin changes going?  Can we expect to have attributes 
like path-id, encap type soon?



Cathy> The API already provides a way for specifying "path-id" and encap type 
(currently only MPLS encap type is supported since OVS does not support NSH 
yet). As to NSH support, the code patch is being worked on, not completed yet. 
We are also tracking the NSH work in OVS and hope OVS will support NSH soon so 
that when networking-sfc integrates with that new version of OVS, NSH can be 
supported properly.

trozet> OK good. Anil is close (demoed at ODL summit) a networking-odl driver 
for networking-sfc that supports NSH.

Can you link the patches or point me to who is working on the NSH support for 
the API/plugin DB layer?



Cathy> Here is the patch link 
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__review.openstack.org_-23_c_373465_&d=DQIGaQ&c=IL_XqQWOjubgfqINi2jTzg&r=nNx-ccom3k8BhfkcqdGNBnq-5rteGW1CENWnxJvQP1M&m=UQNNvtujvkLCQr8XWkfqD3vDLIHnXj6PNYlMzCPvL2o&s=hm29JgqSH_6ZsobVL9vy5m5jEt7Q8laFNP2FmtCdo6c&e=
