Hi,
I want to create a virtual network with this topology in OpenStack.
This is how I have implemented this toplogy in OpenStack.
However, I cannot ping the VMs on a different network e.g. ping between VM1 and VM3 is not successful.
Where am I going wrong?
Thanks.
Router 1 and Router 2 should be on the management network for VMs within private networks to talk to each other. Create a management network and add Router 1 and Router 2 on the management network, Create two private networks and add VMs 1 and 2 to private network 1, VMs 3 and 4 to private network 2. Packets can then flow through the path VM1->Router 1->management network->Router 2->VM3. Router 1 and Router 2 will then behave as switches for the VMs connected to them and as routers on the management network. Hope this helps.

Moreover, I want to know what is the equivalent of a Switch in OpenStack? i.e. while mapping the above Packet Tracer Topolgy in OpenStack , what should I be using at the place of switches?
ovs is open switch
Coming back to the original question, what could be the reason for VMs on different subnets not pinging eachother successfully?
Security groups not properly open, perhaps?
