Title:
  ovs VXLAN over IPv6 conflicts with linux native VXLAN over IPv4 using
  standard port

Status in kolla-ansible:
  Triaged
Status in neutron:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  This has been observed while testing CI IPv6.

  ovs-agent tries to run VXLAN over IPv6 (default port so 4789)

  linux provides network for CI hosts via native VXLAN (kernel interface of the vxlan type) over IPv4 using standard port (the 4789)
  kernel bound to IPv4-only UDP 0.0.0.0:4789

  ovs-agent:

  tunnel port to fd::3

  For some reason this conflict does *not* arise when ovs is using IPv4
  tunnels (kinda counter-intuitively).

  Workarounded by using different port. This has no real life meaning
  (IMHO) but is undoubtedly an interesting phenomenon.
