i have to make sure the port status change to up i just go inside the dashboard>network>select the port connected to the router which shown down. i edit it and change the admin state to down by untick the admin state. then i edit it again and now i enable it and save. now the status of the port change to ACTIVE. but sadly i cannot ping anymore the router ip. what i do, i clear the router gateway and set the router gateway again to the same external network and i'm able to ping it again. but the status show down. So it seems like it only work when the port status shown as DOWN. is this the correct way or something like bug? please advise?

Are you using the OVS or ML2 plugin on the server side? If you restart the L2 agent, does this port remain down?

I'm having a similar issue. Please check your /var/log/neutron/l3-agent.log I'm seeing an error in mine saying it can't do a status report.

i'm using OVS. i have tested restart all neutron service and interface. same thing happened. below are some of the error that i can find inside l3 agent log. 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 ERROR neutron.agent.l3_agent [-] Failed reporting state! 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 TRACE neutron.agent.l3_agent Traceback (most recent call last): 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 TRACE neutron.agent.l3_agent File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/neutron/agent/l3_agent.py", line 815, in _report_state 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 TRACE neutron.agent.l3_agent self.use_call) 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 TRACE neutron.agent.l3_agent File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/neutron/agent/rpc.py", line 72, in report_state 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 TRACE neutron.agent.l3_agent return self.call(context, msg, topic=self.topic) 2014-03-11 13:35:36.930 2001 TRACE neutron.agent.l3_agent File "/usr/lib/python2 ...(more)

I don't think that message is relevant here. Can you try restarting *only* the L2 agent? You could try debug logging and following messages for these ports. But probably the best thing is to use a provider mapping for the external network.

so restart the openvswitch plugin rite? correct me if i'm wrong..

I booted an Ubuntu Havana system with OVS 1.10.2 and found one problem in this area here. I have no idea what the purpose of these lines is, but on this system sudo ovs-vsctl br-get-external-id br-ex returns nothing, and so br-ex is excluded from the list of ancillary bridges and so the gateway port always shows as DOWN.

A workaround is to set the bridge-id to br-ex and restart the L2 agent:

sudo ovs-vsctl br-set-external-id br-ex bridge-id br-ex
sudo service neutron-plugin-openvswitch-agent restart

But I don't know will this solve the OP's problem where one port is working and the another is not. Anyway provider mappings would be a better long term way for external networks.

hmm...it seems working when i use your solution. the status change to ACTIVE now and i still can ping it.. so meaning that your suggestion is correct.. the missing brisge id is causing this.. anyway. .thanks man.. helps a lot.. :). i will take note on that..

senyapsudah gravatar imagesenyapsudah ( 2014-03-15 00:14:55 -0600 )edit

dang. This answer didn't work for me. All ports connected to my "public network", routers & floating IPs all show up as DOWN, though I can ping out and in.

ten_ten_steve gravatar imageten_ten_steve ( 2014-03-17 14:54:11 -0600 )edit

note: operational status for floating ips was only added in Icehouse.
