OpenStack Epoxy : Neutron Network (VXLAN)2025/05/22 |
Configure virtual networking by OpenStack Network Service (Neutron).
For example, configure VXLAN type of networking on here. Furthermore, this example is based on the environment that Network Node has 2 network interfaces. ------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+------------ | | | eth0|10.0.0.30 eth0|10.0.0.50 eth0|10.0.0.51 +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ | [ dlp.srv.world ] | | [ network.srv.world ] | | [ node01.srv.world ] | | (Control Node) | | (Network Node) | | (Compute Node) | | | | | | | | MariaDB RabbitMQ | | Neutron L2/L3 Agent | | Libvirt | | Memcached Nginx | | Neutron Metadata | | Nova Compute | | Keystone httpd | | Open vSwitch | | Neutron L2 Agent | | Glance Nova API | | | | Open vSwitch | | Neutron Server | | | | | | Neutron Metadata | | | | | +-----------------------+ +-----------+-----------+ +-----------------------+ eth1|(UP with no IP) |
