"The OVN provider only supports SOURCE_IP_PORT load balancer algorithm", true? #621

Closed mohaa7 closed 1 year ago

mohaa7 commented 1 year ago

The OVN provider section, in the link below, mentions that: "The OVN provider only supports Layer 4 TCP and UDP network traffic and the SOURCE_IP_PORT load balancer algorithm. The OVN provider does not support health monitoring."

openstack loadbalancer pool create --protocol TCP --lb-algorithm SOURCE_IP_PORT --listener listener1 --name pool1

Do you approve of this? If yes, do you know if more algorithms will be supported in the future?

Please have a look at the limitations of the OVN provider driver in Octavia. Upstream is working on the limitations. But it will take time...
