John, I am trying to reproduce the issue here and I just realize I need a couple more questions answered.
You are saying that the problem is that the vxlan tunnels drop. And this is an unexpeced drop right? What I mean is that vxlan tunnels are only active ("up") when needed, so vxlan tunnels dropping is quite normal if in the right situaion.
For example if you clear the gateway and there is not need for a compute node to send traffic to the "network" node, the tunnel will drop. That is expected. It will be recreated when needed.
Again, vxlan tunnels do not stay up all the time, they do come down and up as necessary.

for example, if I bring up a vm and set the gateway, a vxlan tunnel will be created from the compute node to the network node which has the "physical " gateway in it. And then if you clear the gateway, and there is no other service (like dhcp) needed by the vm in the compute node on that network node, the vxlan tunnel will drop.

can you give a detail list of the steps you are following, so I can reproduce the problem, that way I know where I am supposed to look.

Thnaks.
