I am sure i am just misunderstanding how this all works, but I have opendaylight running on RDO Pike and all seems to work well. My issue is when I try to connect to a floating ip that is on a provider vlan from a machine that is not on that network. IE < Edge Router > | < Provider Vlan> | < Opendaylight Router> | < Floating IP> | < VM> This works. When I ssh or ping from my edge router which is on the same vlan as my external network in opendaylight (openstack), I have no issue. So Traffic is being labeled and routed properly at this point However when I ssh from my client machines that are also connected to the same edge router it does not. IE < Client Machine> | < Internal Vlan | < Edge Router > | < Provider Vlan> | < Opendaylight Router> | < Floating IP> | < VM> I cannot understand, traffic makes it to the edge router, and is not being dropped by the firewall. This process works fine without Opendaylight. I am sure I am just doing something wrong Please let me know if this is an appropriate list, or if I should move this to an opendaylight list
