This is all good stuff. Thanks. Does/Should the neutron docs have an openvswitch debugging page? This belongs there for easy access. Such a page might go a long way to alleviate fears over the openvswitch backend. Thanks, Kevin From: Attila Fazekas Sent:

You can tcpdump the ovs ports as usual. Please keep in mind ovs does not have `single contention` port. OVS does MAC learning by default and you may not see `learned` uni-cast traffic on a random trunk port. You MAY see BUM traffic, but many of them also can be canceled by neutron-ml2-ovs, AFAIK
