RHBA-2024:1973 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An update for ovn22.12 is now available in Fast Datapath for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9

Description

OVN, the Open Virtual Network, is a system to support virtual network abstraction. OVN complements the existing capabilities of OVS to add native support for virtual network abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups.

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

• CLONE - OVN SNAT external_port_range doesn't randomize ports (JIRA:FDP-348)
• CLONE - Auto last hop behavior not working with ipv6 (ecmp-symmetric-reply) (JIRA:FDP-367)
• CLONE - it would take longer to show lsp in ovn-sbctl (JIRA:FDP-379)
• CLONE - OVN DNS responder broken with EDNS/AR (additional records) (JIRA:FDP-387)
• CLONE [ovn22.12 fast-datapath-rhel-9] - OVN routers should unSNAT before attempting to load balance (JIRA:FDP-451)
