[ovs-discuss] Geneve remote_ip as flow for OVN hosts

[Girish Moodalbail]

Hello all,

Is it possible to configure remote_ip as a 'flow' instead of an IP address
(i.e., setting ovn-encap-ip to a single IP address)?

Today, we have one VTEP endpoint per OVN host and all the VMs that connects
to br-int  on that OVN host are reachable behind this VTEP endpoint. Is it
possible to have multiple VTEP endpoints for a br-int bridge and use Open
Flow flows to select one of the VTEP endpoint?

|                                  |
|       +-------------------------+|

|         +--+-----+   +---+----+  |
|            |             |       |
|          +-v----+     +--v---+   |
|          | IP0  |     | IP1  |   |
|          +------+     +------+   |
+----------+ eth0 +-----+ eth1 +---+
           +------+     +------+

Also, we don't want to bond eth0 and eth1 into a bond interface and then
use bond's IP as VTEP endpoint.

Thanks in advance,
