[Rdo-list] neutron Flatnetwork config with two nics port status is always down

[Yogesh Bhanu]

Hi ,

I have a two node setup  with two nics:


eth0 -- Intranet - br-ex
eth1 -- Management   - br-int


Node1 acts as:

Controller
Network
Storage
Compute

Node2 acts as:

Compute


I have followed the guidelines of using packstack with vlan and modifying
  /etc/neutron/plugins/openvswitch/ovs_neutron_plugin.ini to:

[OVS]
tenant_network_type=none
enable_tunneling=False
integration_bridge=br-int
network_vlan_ranges = physnet1
bridge_mappings = physnet1:br-ex
vxlan_udp_port=4789


- restart  the neutron-server service
- define a network/subnet

neutron net-create vm-ext --shared  --provider:network_type flat 
--provider:physical_network physnet1
neutron subnet-create --name vm-ext-intra --gateway 192.168.10.1 
--dns-nameserver 192.168.10.0  --allocation-pool 
start=192.168.10.231,end=192.168.10.249   vm-ext  192.168.10.0/24
neutron subnet-update vm-ext-intra  --enable_dhcp False

-  I  can start a VM instance but I'm not able to access the VMs from 
my  Intranet.
-  IP gets associated with the VM but the port status is alwaysdown

Question: Is it possible to set the port status Up  and if yes How?
