Hi Tony,
AFAIK Mellanox ConnectX-5 and newer supports OVS DP offloading but it may
be not fully supported (I mean not all match ops).

Hi Brendan,
Smart NIC offloads DataPath flows from OVS (because OVN uses OVS
underneath). If you like to integrate OVN with Smart NIC, it have to
support all flow operations used by OVN. Especially conntrack offloading,
because OVN flows extensively use ct() operations in flow matching and flow
Hi,
I'm stressing OVN environment by generating millions of flows. What
surprises me is when I fill out conntrack table on hypervisor I don't
see any errors/warning from kernel nf_conntrack or openvswitch modules.
When I increase conntrack table size, it is immediately filled out again
so I'm

Hi,
VM on OVN: 10.129.25.83
IP behind VTEP: 10.129.25.170
Traffic initiated from behind the VTEP towards VM on OVN is working
correctly, ex. running "ping 10.129.25.83".
Traffic initiated from VM on OVN (10.129.25.83) towards VTEP is not, ex.
running "ping 10.129.25.170".
ICMP requests are
Hello,
Is there any documentation for OVN VTEP with high level architecture
and/or implementation examples?
I would like to know how it works and how it integrates with OVN virtual
networks.
Is there a single VTEP VXLAN tunnel termination point on OVN side or
VXLAN tunnels can be terminated on
We are also looking towards some kind of BGP functionality in
Neutron/OVN, because a provider/external networks does not scale well,
especially without network segmentation support.
Currently we are working on POC implementation of a BGP speaker plugged
into Neutron which will announce /32
