Hi Miguel, looks more like a neutron dvr arp issue. Octavia I think just uses vrrp for it's vip which is fairly standard but I don't know the exact details.
Hi Gregory, the first link is interesting. One big difference is that the user actually has a permanent ARP entry in the qrouter and that entry is wrong.
In my case, I do not have a permanent ARP entry. My qrouter tries to learn the VIP MAC but it is too slow most of the time so the query fails.
As you pointed out, octavia team puts the blame on neutron.
The bug you sent (3rd link) is long. It dates back from 2018. I hope it resolves the issue as I have multiple users complaining about it. I will post a comment and hopefully someone is actively working on it.
Hi,
Thanks for the quick comments.
