I have two remote hosts, they are both behind a NAT so have a public and a
private address. I made sure, to have life easier, the subnets are the same
(I assigned static local ips to prevent problems).
So, we have
host1
public ip: #####
private ip: 192.168.1.2
host2
public ip: yyyyy
private ip: 192.168.1.3
now, I added eth0 to both bridges (so internal interfaces br0 have to local
ips specified above) and estabilished a couple gre tunnels
host1:
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth0
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 gre0 -- set interface gre0 type=gre
options:remote_ip=yyyy
host2:
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth0
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 gre0 -- set interface gre0 type=gre
options:remote_ip=xxxx
anyway if, from host1, I try to ping host2
ping 192.168.1.3
ping fails.
So I take that some ports have to be opened on the NATs or some more
options have to be specified in order to make the process work...am I right?
Regards,
Pasquale
