Epic Goal
Support EgressIP feature with ExternalTrafficPolicy=Local and External2Pod direct routing in OVNKubernetes.
Why is this important?
We see a lot of customers using Multi-Egress Gateway with EgressIP.
Currently, connections which reaches pod via the OVN routing gateway are send back via EgressIP if it is associated with the specific namespace.
Multiple bugs have been reported by customers:
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-16792
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-7454
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-18400
Also, resulting in filing RFE, as it was too complicated to be fixed via a bug.
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RFE-4614
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RFE-3944
This is observed by multiple customers using MetalLB and F5 load balancers. We haven't really tested this combination.
From the initial discussion, looks like the fix is needed in OVN. Request the team to expedite this fix, given it has bunch of customers hitting it.
Planning Done Checklist
The following items must be completed on the Epic prior to moving the Epic from Planning to the ToDo status
Priority+ is set by engineering- Epic must be Linked to a +Parent Feature
- Target version+ must be set
- Assignee+ must be set
- (Enhancement Proposal is Implementable
- (No outstanding questions about major work breakdown
- (Are all Stakeholders known? Have they all been notified about this item?
- Does this epic affect SD? {}Have they been notified{+}? (View plan definition for current suggested assignee)
- Please use the “Discussion Needed: Service Delivery Architecture Overview” checkbox to facilitate the conversation with SD Architects. The SD architecture team monitors this checkbox which should then spur the conversation between SD and epic stakeholders. Once the conversation has occurred, uncheck the “Discussion Needed: Service Delivery Architecture Overview” checkbox and record the outcome of the discussion in the epic description here.
- The guidance here is that unless it is very clear that your epic doesn’t have any managed services impact, default to use the Discussion Needed checkbox to facilitate that conversation.
