Oops accidently hit send on my phone.

I had a similar problem before. My problem was that the nic driver on the
compute instance (your Essex 2) was dropping vlan tags, and then,
openvswitch wasn't delivering packets. You can check it using tcpdump -e
-vvv.

BTW, if you are using virtualbox to run openstack, make sure you are not
using vbox intel drivers. Use pcnet fast instead.

OVS splinter may also be useful.

Hope that helps.

Cheers
Soheil
