Hi,

I have installed IceHouse 3 node(nodes as Virtual Machine) setup on Ubuntu 14.04. I had problem when launching the instance and the problem was resolved after adding the properties vif_plugging_timeout = 10 vif_plugging_is_fatal = False After instance created i am not able to ping the VM from outside network...From the VM instance i can ping router IPs both external side and tenant network side.

Can you please provide me the what could be problem for not accessing Vm from external network ?

Thanks, Sasi

Attached the additional details from the setup.

Did you allow ingress ICMP in security group? did you add floating ip?

T u l ( 2014-09-10 15:04:14 -0500 )edit

Yes. I have added the ICMP security group and Floating IP.

 9bf26a37-eb87-4e72-9144-f535c3ac18dc | DemoInstance | ACTIVE | -          | Running     | Demo-net=192.168.1.3, 10.126.243.19

After attaching the router to the external network i am not able to ping the gateway IP (10.126.243.10)

In Horizon dashboard, goto security groups, click on default security and then add All ICMP rule & SSH rule. Then try to ping floating IP from openstack controller node.

I have added both the security group rules. Could you please clarify that after create the router and attached interfaces(both external gw and internal interface) to the router, i am not able to reach the router external gw ip. What could be the reason for not reaching the router external gw ip ?

C Sasi Kanth ( 2014-09-11 04:26:52 -0500 )edit

i can ping the ip through the below command

osnetwork# ip netns exec qrouter-26075d1b-19a8-491c-b532-ca43ba65ef58 ping 10.126.243.10 PING 10.126.243.10 (10.126.243.10) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 10.126.243.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.638 ms 64 bytes from 10.126.243.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64

Problem got resolved. Issue was that management network and external network are same... due to that when new VM spawned the floating IP are assigned from same network of management network. i.e, two ips from same subnet is assigned to eth0 of network node and qrouter external interface. After creating separate subnet for management and external network VM pingable from external network.

ARP problem in linux if you same subnet in linux: http://serverfault.com/questions/3360...

Thanks to gagarinq9 who was guiding the initial troubleshooting.

Hello, please check are you able ping betwen VM's in same tenant. If you don't posible the GRE tunels are not up. Try to restart all of neutron services, very posible so of them is down.

Hi, I am able to ping between Vms in the same network

C Sasi Kanth ( 2014-09-14 10:56:01 -0500 )edit

One different in the setup was that i am not using separate instance tunnel interface. Instead i was using the Compute and Network node management interface as tunnel interface as well...Will this cause any issue ?

C Sasi Kanth ( 2014-09-14 11:11:23 -0500 )edit

I think this is not a problem. Try inspect traffic with tcpdump. Ping virtual machine and watch what is going on in eth0 of it. And try ping from Vm some physical interface and inspect traffic.

gagarinq9 ( 2014-09-15 03:37:09 -0500 )edit

Also try check services for up\down state Try reboot them: with command like: for i in $(initctl list | grep '^neutron' | awk '{print $1}'); do service $i restart; done

gagarinq9 ( 2014-09-15 03:39:11 -0500 )edit

Hi, I have inspected traffic from compute to network node on each interfaces. using the tcpdump commands...ping packet reaches the qrouter...But i can see only ARP broadcast packet at "qg..." in the qrouter...Please see the below comments
