You created an L3 tunnel but OVS is an Ethernet switch, so it doesn't know how to send traffic over it. It is better to create tunnels directly through OVS than using the ip command as it is more scalable and less error prone. There are a number of tutorials on how to do this floating around. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
