Re: [openstack-dev] [neutron] what is the different between ovs-ofctl and iptalbes? Can we use ovs-ofctl to nat floating ip into fixed ip if we use openvswitch agent?

As I remember, ovs does not support binding-on veth rules. Hence now we might need tools like iptables. However, this might change in future. As to the l3 part, should be handled in more efficient way, e.g., NFV. On Tue, Nov 4, 2014 at 2:29 PM, loy wolfe loywo...@gmail.com wrote: maybe two

Hi, OVS mainly focus on l2 which iptables mainly focus on l3 or higher. Damon Wang 2014-11-04 11:12 GMT+08:00 Li Tianqing jaze...@163.com: -- Best Li Tianqing ___ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org

ovs is implemented open flow, in ovs, it can see the l3, why do not use ovs? -- Best Li Tianqing At 2014-11-04 11:55:46, Damon Wang damon.dev...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, OVS mainly focus on l2 which iptables mainly focus on l3 or higher. Damon Wang 2014-11-04 11:12 GMT+08:00 Li Tianqing

maybe two reasons: performance caused by flow miss; feature parity L3+ flow table destroy the megaflow aggregation, so if your app has many concurrent sessions like web server, flow miss upcall would make vswitchd corrupted. iptable is already there, migrating it to ovs flow table needs a lot of
