Bug Description
L2 Gateway bridges the neutron network with the hardware based VxLAN gateways. The DVR routers in neutron could not forward traffic to an instance that is behind the VxLAN gateways since it could not 'ARP' for those instances.
DVR currently has prepopulated ARP entries for all instances created with DVR serviceable port. But somehow we should be able to populate the ARP entries of instances behind the VxLAN gateway on all DVR nodes and so the traffic can flow between them.

The need is clear IMO, and we would need to elaborate on how to achieve this from the Neutron DVR's point of view. For this reason, I'd suggest putting together a spec that outlines the changes that you think are required in Neutron DVR (alone) to allow something like L2GW to integrate with.
