Hi,

I am new to OVS and with everything I found, I cannot get (what I consider) a 
simple setup to work:

- I create an OVS on a host, setting an IP on the default internal interface
- I can now ping from this host to any other host on that subnet
- But I cannot ping to the OVS interface from any remote host

Am I missing something?

I am starting from a situation where em1 on each host is configured with an 
192.168.12.XXX address and both hosts are able to ping each other.

Next on host 1 I do:

ip a del 192.168.12.10 dev em1
ip link set em1 down
ovs-vsctl add-br br0
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 em1
ip link set em1 up
ip a add 192.168.12.10/24 dev br0
ip link set onebr up

ovs-vsctl show
f99ed25b-1dcc-4b6a-a530-9367d26524b2
   Bridge onebr
       Port "em1"
           Interface "em1"
       Port br0
           Interface br0
               type: internal
   ovs_version: "2.3.0"

ping from host 1 to 192.168.12.11 works
ping from 192.168.12.11 to host 1 gives "Destination unreachable"

Standard ipforwarding is on:
sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

Setting the br0 device UP creates an ip route as expected.

The only strange think I notice is that the br0 device never goes to RUNNING 
state, it goes from DOWN to UNKNOWN and stays there.
But from what I was able to find, that should not neccesarily be an issue?

Any advise?


Wkr,

Jhon
