Title:
[RFE] sriov vxlan network support
Status in neutron:
Confirmed
Bug description:
1 problem
now the vxlan can only support ovs vxlan network but donot support sr-
iov vxlan network
if support the sr-iov vxlan network, it's need to support create a
network with parameter [--provider: physical netwrok], the create
network should be as following:
neutron net-create ext_net -provider:network_type vxlan
--provider:physical_network physnet1 --provider:segmentation_id 1000
the current neutron DB don't has physical network for vxlan network.
if support the ovs vxlan network, there is no need parm [--provider:
physical netwrok]
so the parm [--provider: physical netwrok] is a optional parm
forcreating vxlan network
2 how to find this problem
We do a project which need to deploy a sr-iov vxlan network and find that
cannot assign the physcial network for vxlan network.
It seems that the neutron don't support sr-iov vxlan network and only support
OVS vxlan network
3 how to support sr-iov vxlan network
(1) first it need to create vxlan network associating with physical network
(2) second it need get the mapping relationship between VNI and vlan
4 how this problem is going?
Now we have modified the neuron code and support this question, we hope share
our code and commit to neutron project.
5 significance
As everyone knows that the sr-iov performance is better than the ovs.if the
SR-IOV support vxlan network, it has a widely potentiall for vxlan network
application,
