Doc Text:
When a load balancer is created in a tenant network with a Virtual IP (VIP) and members, and the tenant network is connected to a router that is connected to the provider network, the Open Virtual Network (OVN) load balancer is associated with the OVN logical router. If the 'router' option was used for nat-addresses, ovn-controller sent GARP packets for that VIP on the provider network. As there was nothing to prevent different tenants in OpenStack from creating a subnet with the same Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) number and a load balancer with the same VIP, there could be several ovn-controllers generating GARP packets on the provider network for the same IP, each one with the MAC of the logical router port belonging to each tenant. This setup could be an issue for the physical network infrastructure. With this update, a new option (exclude-lb-vips-from-garp) is added in OVN[1] on the router gateway port. This flag ensures that no GARP packets are sent for the load balancer VIPs.
