Issue

• When placing the VM's on the same compute node. the SYN packet is not tracked by the netfilter_conntrack and when the RST packet returns it is not related to any existing flow and hence dropped.

• Steps to Reproduce:

  • deployed two intances with default sec group.
  • Flushed iptables on both instances.
  • From source vm: addr:192.168.22.4

[cloud-user@host00 ~]$ telnet  192.168.22.3 56699
