Re: [ovs-discuss] Strange behaviour with VLANs and Bridges and ARP.

So as of right now, this is in effect on Kernel 4.12.4-1.g2a27bf2-default on OpenSUSE 42.3 (Using the Kernel:stable branch because some other apps require it) on every system with a vswitch called lan attached to a vswitch called br0 where the vswitch lan is the main access point to the rest of

Re: [ovs-discuss] Strange behaviour with VLANs and Bridges and ARP.

My configuration looks like this: Smart switch --on shelf. --- br0 --on density <-- Inbound ARP requests for 'lan' IP appear here. --- --- lan --on density, assigned vlan 10, lan IP <-- Inbound ARP requests for 'lan' IP DO NOT appear here. No response is sent. ---br0 --on densetsu --- ---lan

The only place I've seen this is with VMWARE vswitch not forwarding ARP on ESX. That doesn't sound like it's any part of your issue. When you say "smart switch using openvswitch," what do you mean exactly? Thanks, On Tue, Aug 8, 2017 at 11:44 PM, Ricky wrote: > I

Re: [ovs-discuss] Strange behaviour with VLANs and Bridges and ARP.

I have run into a similar problem myself and have not found the solution. The ARP traffic from one direction makes it to OVS, but does not get sent to device it needs to go to. It my case OVS pretty much isn't sending any ARP packets out from itself except to the other OVS instances I have a

[ovs-discuss] Strange behaviour with VLANs and Bridges and ARP.

So this is a bit hard to explain, but I hope you'll follow. I have two hosts, density and densetsu. they each host VMs and CEPH nodes using libvirt and ceph and they're connected to a smart switch using openvswitch and there are a bunch of VLANs. 5, 6, 10, 20, and 30. Most "normal" traffic goes
