Hi Numan, Good to see you pick it up, no need to bother OpenStack alias. My ultimate target is to support VM and BMS L2 connectivity with OpenStack. I used to make that work with other virtual networking stack, not sure how much it's supported by OVN/OVS. Any comments in that context?
Thanks!

Or say, how can I connect BMS > to a logical switch on OVN/OVS? For this you need to create a localnet port in the logical switch. Something like this: ovn-nbctl ls-add public # localnet port ovn-nbctl lsp-add public ln-public ovn-nbctl lsp-set-type ln-public localnet ovn-nbctl lsp-set-addresses ln-public unknown ovn-nbctl lsp-set-options ln-public network_name=public # create a few VM ports ovn-nbctl lsp-add public pub-port1 ovn-nbctl lsp-set-addresses pub-port1 "50:54:00:00:00:03 172.168.0.100" (assuming your L2 network is 172.168.0.0/24) ovn-nbctl lsp-add public pub-port2 ovn-nbctl lsp-set-addresses pub-port2 "50:54:00:00:00:04 172.168.0.101" # On the compute node(s) where you create the VMs ovs-vsctl set open . external_ids:ovn-bridge-mappings="public:br-ex" ovs-vsctl add-br br-ex ovs-vsctl add-port eth1 # assuming eth1 is your physical interface connecting to your L2 switch After this connectivity from your VM (bound to logical port pub-port1) should be able to communicate to your BMS.
