Add info to help understand VTEP gateway easier
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It is a must to set the column of the "addresses" to "unknown".
It will add a priority 0 entry in "ls_in_l2_lkup" stage.
If not, the  traffic can't go to physical network. I think
it is better to explain in this doc, so the player of OVN
can be easier to use VTEP gateway.

vtep-logical-switch</var> and <var>vtep-physical-switch</var> keys
in the <var>options</var> column must also be specified, since
multiple VTEP gateways can attach to the same VTEP logical switch.
Next, the <var>addresses</var> column of this logical port must be set
to "unknown", it will add a priority 0 entry in "ls_in_l2_lkup"
stage of logical switch ingress pipeline. So, traffic with unrecorded
mac by OVN would go through the <code>Logical_Switch_Port</code> to
physical network.
