17:31:17 phanipawan, vik_ koteswar: if you need to get hold of me, feel free to send me an email at sukhdev@arista.com 17:31:33 yes sure 17:31:49 sukhdev: yeah sure 17:32:32 sukhdev: is that the most priority item currently in l2 gateway? 17:32:46 there was another bug (which I have not filed) but, has been discussed in the email - regarding flooding the remote macs 17:32:50 phanipawan: yes 17:34:45 phanipawan: this is the email where Ashish Gupta, you, and others are copied 17:35:00 I do not see vik_ or koteswar copied on that email 17:35:30 sukhdev: yes i know abt that issue 17:35:46 but we could not find that issue in our setup 17:35:48 ya i don't know about this..can you please forward that? 17:35:52 phanipawan: I have been waiting for reply to that email :-):-) 17:36:09 vik_: email? 17:36:36 vik_: I mean what is your email? 17:36:40 vikas.d-m@hp.com 17:36:42 sukhdev: can you please find out the scenario where the MCAST_MACS_REMOTES table in OVSDB is entered 17:37:09 because that entry is not getting populated in our setup 17:37:22 phanipawan: I sent out the dump of the OVSDB - this had it 17:37:23 we tried to debug that issue 17:38:05 phanipawan: I sent the dump which showed that the Arista HW vtep was publishing that information, but, the OVS vtep was not 17:38:32 ohh 17:38:35 phanipawan: I can try to locate that dump and re-sent it 17:39:13 vik_: I just forwarded you the email 17:39:17 sukhdev: in which case the ARISTA HW vtep populates that information? 17:39:27 can you please let us know 17:40:07 ya got it 17:40:14 phanipawan: Anything it see behind it (i.e. BMs connected behind it), it will publish their macs 17:41:30 sukhdev: But the BMs connected behind it are entered into the Mcast_Mac_Local in our case 17:41:51 the Mcast Mac Remote are not at all populated 17:42:16 we need to figure out why it is behaving differently 17:44:06 sorry got disconneced 17:44:36 phanipawan: I do not know my last two messages made it or not - did not realized I was disconnected :-) 17:45:01 sukhdev: can u repost your messages 17:45:18 i mean publish to the remove vtep as the remote macs - so that the remote vtep knows that those macs are behind HW vtep - this is needed only for the first ping 17:45:28 If SW vtep published the same thing in the reverse, then HW vtep will know that a VM is behind remote (SW) vtep, hence, the BM to VM, and hence the first ping from BM to VM will work 17:45:35 phanipawan: just did 17:47:54 phanipawan: does it make sense? 17:48:18 sukhdev: i am still confused 17:48:32 phanipawan: :-) 17:49:27 phanipawan: if you see the HW VTEP schema and see the purpose of remote mac table - that might help explain 17:50:09 L2 GW does not populate it at all - under no circumstances 17:50:28 sukhdev: i think we will do some investigation on this and then come to you 17:50:47 if we find anything then we will drop u an email 17:50:56 if that's ok with you? 17:51:17 phanipawan: even I am not expert on this - hence, I had included our local expert on the email - please feel free to reply to that email, he will help explain better than I can :-) 17:52:14 sukhdev: sure, we will verify and try to reproduce this on our setup 17:52:18 phanipawan: yup that will be good - but, the best thing will be reply to that email, and ask Ashwin to explain it to you better - he will be happy to do it 17:52:38 phanipawan: Thanks 17:52:51 sukhdev : sure :-) 17:52:56 With this I am done with the agenda 17:53:07 Do you guys have anything you want to discuss? 17:53:34 nothing at the moment 17:53:47 same here 17:53:54 cool - in that case we are done 17:54:05 Thanks guys 17:54:14 #endmeeting
