[SL] I haven't worked with userspace tunneling yet, but I believe the principles here are much the same as with a "traditional" kernel-mode implementation. Traffic from the vxlan0 port on br-int is directed out the physical interfaces attached to br-phy via the kernel's routing table (which is why step #5 is necessary). This article may help you understand the various traffic patterns you may encounter with OVS: <http://blog.scottlowe.org/2013/05/15/examining-open-vswitch-traffic-patterns/> > 2) What should I do if also want to access(from the VM) the network that my > host is in ? [SL] You would need to either a) add an additional interface to the VM, or b) create a VXLAN-to-VLAN gateway. In the case of a), this additional interface would need to be connected to br-phy (or its equivalent). In the case of b), this would be another system (guest or VM) that receives VXLAN traffic and handles decapsulation of the traffic and placement onto a VLAN outside the overlay. I hope this helps. -- Scott _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list disc...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-discuss
