Hi All, I'm trying to connect two OVS bridges via patch ports, however, as soon as I add the ports as type=patch, they disappear from the ifconfig and I'm unable to check any traffic hits on either of the patch interfaces. Of course, I'm not able to get the ping going with the patched interfaces Only one OVS amongst the two is connected to the outside network via GRE tunnel.
Topology roughly looks like as the attached document. Problem: Unable to ping VM1 from VM2 Expected route: VM2->ovsbr-ext->GRE Tunnel->ovsbr1->patchlink->ovsbr2->VM1. Patch config on the bridges ovsbr1 and ovsbr2 are as follows: ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr1 port1 ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr2 port2 ovs-vsctl set interface port1 type=patch ovs-vsctl set interface port2 type=patch ovs-vsctl set interface port1 options:peer=port2 ovs-vsctl set interface port2 options:peer=port1 OpenVSwitch version on physical host 1 : 2.0.2 OPenVSwitch version on physical host 2 : 2.5.2 Any help or pointers would be appreciated. -regards, Vasu.
