Could you provide more detail on the components you are running (OVS and DPDK versions etc.).

Just to clarify, do you mean the stats for the device within the VM (i.e. your using something like ifconfig to check the rx/tx stats) or do you mean the OVS DPDK stats for the ports connected to the VMs themselves (for example vhost ports).

Do you mean your able to ping the IP of the VMs internally to them i.e. ping local host essentially?

CC'ing Sean Mooney as I'm not the most experienced with OpenStack and Sean might be able to help.

Thanks
