Hi all,
Trying to find the reason why my packets are dropped on my last outgoing port.
I am receiving packets in an OVS bridge, sending those packets to another OVS
bridge on the same node using patch-ports. Kind of the following:
__________________NODE A___________________ ___NODE B___
_______br_core______ _____br_access_______
eth0 --> patch-porteth0 ------> patch-porteth1 --> eth1 -----> eth1
192.168.168.50 192.168.167.50
192.168.167.51
I have a rule on my br_access that shows these packets hit the rule.... but
rather than sending these packets out... they are all dropped. I use iperf to
send udp packets and they are all dropped... Can someone help on showing me how
to debug that thing? How can I log the reason why the drop counter increases. I
don't even understand why it just blindly sends the packet out through that
interface since the rule is saying it should.
The only reason why I created a br_access bridge was because I was not able to
go out of the br_core to use normal ip routing..... I used a rule to force
actions=NORMAL when receiving a certain packet with a dest ip in br_core....
but it failed.. so I created a patch bridge like shown below... but I'm still
not able to get the packets I want.... I basically.. just want to go out of the
OVS switch to use normal routing... can someone help on how to achieve this.
Been blocked for some time now and my pressure is building up ;-)
thanks for your time,
samantha
