Public bug reported: I am using Openstack Queens release (on Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS) and attempting to install the OVS mechanism driver for self-service network creation, as per the official documentation in https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/queens/admin/deploy-ovs- selfservice.html
- [X] This doc is inaccurate in this way: At step 5 of the network node configuration (https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/queens/admin/deploy- ovs-selfservice.html#network-node), the user is asked to create the OVS provider bridge "br-provider". However, following this step, an instruction to add the provider network interface (in the network node) as a port on "br-provider" is missing. As a result, the router namespace, and consequently the VMs created in a self-service network interfaced with the router, will be unable to communicate with the provider network. - [X] This is a doc addition request. - [X] I have a fix to the document that I can paste below: Following step needs to be added after step 5: ovs-vsctl add-port br-provider PROVIDER_INTERFACE Replace PROVIDER_INTERFACE with the name of the underlying interface that handles provider networks. For example, eth1 ----------------------------------- Release: 12.0.5.dev39 on 2018-10-31 08:00 SHA: af84349a4cca1bb1dbca9d6444f3c50bbe260683 Source: https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/neutron/tree/doc/source/admin/deploy-ovs-selfservice.rst URL: https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/queens/admin/deploy-ovs-selfservice.html ** Affects: neutron Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: doc ovs -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
