Hi Darragh,

The ethernet of my "br-ex" interface is "eth2", the output of "ethtool -k
eth2" is:

---
root@netnode-1:~# ethtool -k eth2
Offload parameters for eth2:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: off
scatter-gather: off
tcp-segmentation-offload: off
udp-fragmentation-offload: off
generic-segmentation-offload: off
generic-receive-offload: on
large-receive-offload: off
rx-vlan-offload: on
tx-vlan-offload: on
ntuple-filters: off
receive-hashing: off
---

And yes, my uplink router is a "Ubuntu KVM Virtual Machine", I have a valid
public IPv4 (189.8.93.64/28) routed to my own data center. The OpenStack
Network Node is connected to the uplink router (KVM VM) using a "GIGALan
3Com Manageable Switch".

Tks for the tips!

Best,
Thiago
