A more general comment is about the pmd core list: they must be part of edpm_tuned_isolated_cores (in this case, I see that core 1 is listed, but core 1 isn't isolated.

I don't see a bond configuration for that node, but for a future test, it is interesting to enable LACP and balance-tcp for the bond holding the geneve IP endpoint, to spread the traffic across multiple links.

As no VM will be deployed on a networker node, it is interesting to maximise the number of allocated cores for OVS, within reasonable limits.
In that specific conf, edpm_ovs_dpdk_pmd_core_list should be equal to edpm_tuned_isolated_cores.
A more general comment is about the pmd core list: they must be part of edpm_tuned_isolated_cores (in this case, I see that core 1 is listed, but core 1 isn't isolated.

We'll want to increase the number of physical queues, to spread the traffic across the many PMD threads we have.
