[Bug 1462154] Re: With DVR Pings to floating IPs replied with fixed-ips

 

I tested it and i was able to reproduce.
In my setup VM1 is 10.0.0.3 and VM2 is 10.0.0.5 and with fip 172.168.1.9 - both hosted in the same compute node.

In the q-router namespace, there is a DNAT rule (shown below)

Chain neutron-l3-agent-PREROUTING (1 references)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source destination
    0     0 REDIRECT   tcp  --  qr-+   *       0.0.0.0/0 169.254.169.254      tcp dpt:80 redir ports 9697
   12  1008 DNAT       all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0 172.168.1.9          to:10.0.0.5 

Because of which, the ping packet destined to the floating ip
(172.168.1.9) is not received by the snat namespace of the controller
node.

Below is the tcpdump of the q-router interface

I manually deleted the DNAT rule from iptables and it seems to work fine initially. But it had side effects.

I am not sure if its worth fixing it.

Thanks

Title:
  With DVR Pings to floating IPs replied with fixed-ips

Status in OpenStack Neutron (virtual network service):
  Opinion

Bug description:
  On my single node devstack setup, there are 2 VMs hosted.  VM1 has no floating IP assigned.  VM2 has a floating IP assigned.  From VM1, ping to VM2 using the floating IP.  Ping output reports the replies comes from VM2's fixed ip address.
  The reply should be from VM2's floating ip address.

  This is a DVR problem as it doesn't happen when the L3 agent's mode is
  'legacy'.

  This may be a problem with the NAT rules defined by the DVR L3-agent.

  I used the latest neutron code on the master branch to reproduce, The
  agent_mode is set to 'dvr_snat'.

  
  Here is how the problem is reproduced:

  VM1 and VM2 runs on the same host.

  VM1 has fixed IP of 10.11.12.4, no floating-ip associated.
  VM2 has fixed IP of 10.11.12.5  floating-ip=10.127.10.226

  Logged into VM1 from the qrouter namespace.

  From VM1, ping to 10.127.10.226, ping output at VM1 reports
  ping replies are from the VM2's fixed IP address

  # ssh cirros@10.11.12.4
  cirros@10.11.12.4's password: 
  $ ping 10.127.10.226
  PING 10.127.10.226 (10.127.10.226): 56 data bytes
  64 bytes from 10.11.12.5: seq=0 ttl=64 time=4.189 ms
  64 bytes from 10.11.12.5: seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.254 ms
  64 bytes from 10.11.12.5: seq=2 ttl=64 time=2.386 ms
  64 bytes from 10.11.12.5: seq=3 ttl=64 time=2.064 ms
  ^C
  --- 10.127.10.226 ping statistics ---
  4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss
  round-trip min/avg/max = 1.254/2.473/4.189 ms
  $ 

  
  If I associate a floating IP on VM1 then repeat the same test, ping reports the replies comes from VM2's floating IP:

  # ssh cirros@10.11.12.4
  cirros@10.11.12.4's password: 
  $ ping 10.127.10.226
  PING 10.127.10.226 (10.127.10.226): 56 data bytes
