Comment 3 for bug 1792493

I have a Queens environment that works, so I am comparing everything possible between it and the Rocky deployment.

Apparently, having the "fg" interface down is normal (why, I have no idea), but the working Queens system shows this when running "ovs-ofctl show br-int", truncated to only show the fg interface.

 6(fg-d57c7cc3-d3): addr:00:00:00:00:00:00
     config: PORT_DOWN
     state: LINK_DOWN
     speed: 0 Mbps now, 0 Mbps max

So far, everything in OVS and the network namespaces look identical.

Also, the OVS version is identical (from "ovs-vsctl --version"):
ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 2.9.0
DB Schema 7.15.1

The CentOS install on the Queens environment has a slightly older kernel:
working: Kernel: Linux 3.10.0-862.9.1.el7.x86_64
not working: Kernel: Linux 3.10.0-862.11.6.el7.x86_64

but the kernel version is only a guess - I'll continue to look for variances.

Knowing if anyone else has run into this issue would be greatly appreciated.
