Folks,

I’m contacting you to find out if a behaviour I see is expected behaviour or 
actual misdemeanour in Open vSwitch and/or OVN. I have an OpenStack setup here 
that uses OVN. I have configured several VLAN-based provider networks. What I 
want to do is use a GRE-tunnel *inside* one of these VLAN networks. On the 
target compute node, I see that traffic enters the physical host but is not 
forwarded to the bridge to which the VM is connected. I can see that the flows 
for that are missing in the flow table.

I fully understand that OVN supports Geneve only, but in this case, I want my 
*tenants* to be able to use GRE encapsulation in a provider network. Is this 
supposed to work and this is either a bug or a misconfiguration? And if it is 
not expected to work, what are possible alternatives?

Thank you very much for your help in advance.

Best regards
Martin
