vlan tagged external network in openstack
I created a vlan tagged external network in my mutli node devstack setup. DVR is enabled in the setup
surya@ControllerNode:~/devstack$ neutron net-show external

But when I associate a floating IP to a vm running on compute node , I can see that there are no flows created on the br-ex bridge to translate the internal vlan to external vlan. When I create a vlan provider I can see the vlan translation flows on br-data to which my physnet is associated to. Why I was not able to see the vlan translation in case of external networks. Right now the external network created is behaving as a flat network. How can I achieve vlan tagging with the vlan tagged external network
