[dpdk-users] OVS-DPDK - packets received at dpdk interface but not forwarded to VXLAN port

[Avi Cohen (A)]

Hello All



I have 2  OVS-DPDK installed  - with the following below symmetric configuration: see ***



When I send ping from a namespace (connected to the ovs-dpdk) - I see that the packet is received at the peer  via the dpdk interface - BUT not sent to the vxlan port



See  ###  the tcpdump of the packet (captured at the br-phy  in the peer) - the packet  looks  OK but  not sent to vxlan port  for decap.



[note that in the TX direction - the behavior is OK - packet sent from namespace to veth0 then to vxlan encap, then to dpdk interface --> eventually the packet is received at the dpdk peer interface]



Can someone see any problem with my configuration ?



Best Regards

avi
