Chapter 4. Connecting VM instances to physical networks You can directly connect your VM instances to an external network using flat and VLAN provider networks. 4.1. Overview of the OpenStack Networking topology OpenStack Networking (neutron) has two categories of services distributed across a number of node types. Neutron server - This service runs the OpenStack Networking API server, which provides the API for end-users and services to interact with OpenStack Networking. This server also integrates with the underlying database to store and retrieve project network, router, and loadbalancer details, among others. Neutron agents - These are the services that perform the network functions for OpenStack Networking: neutron-dhcp-agent - manages DHCP IP addressing for project private networks. neutron-l3-agent - performs layer 3 routing between project private networks, the external network, and others. Compute node - This node hosts the hypervisor that runs the virtual machines, also known as instances. A Compute node must be wired directly to the network in order to provide external connectivity for instances. This node is typically where the l2 agents run, such as neutron-openvswitch-agent . Additional resources Section 4.2, "Placement of OpenStack Networking services" 4.2. Placement of OpenStack Networking services The OpenStack Networking services can either run together on the same physical server, or on separate dedicated servers, which are named according to their roles: Controller node - The server that runs API service. Network node - The server that runs the OpenStack Networking agents. Compute node - The hypervisor server that hosts the instances. The steps in this chapter apply to an environment that contains these three node types. If your deployment has both the Controller and Network node roles on the same physical node, then you must perform the steps from both sections on that server. This also applies for a High Availability (HA) environment, where all three nodes might be running the Controller node and Network node services with HA. As a result, you must complete the steps in sections applicable to Controller and Network nodes on all three nodes. Additional resources Section 4.1, "Overview of the OpenStack Networking topology" 4.3. Configuring flat provider networks You can use flat provider networks to connect instances directly to the external network. This is useful if you have multiple physical networks and separate physical interfaces, and intend to connect each Compute and Network node to those external networks. Prerequisites You have multiple physical networks. This example uses physical networks called physnet1 , and physnet2 , respectively. You have separate physical interfaces. This example uses separate physical interfaces, eth0 and eth1 , respectively. Procedure On the undercloud host, logged in as the stack user, create a custom YAML environment file. Example Tip The Red Hat OpenStack Platform Orchestration service (heat) uses a set of plans called templates to install and configure your environment. You can customize aspects of the overcloud with a custom environment file , which is a special type of template that provides customization for your orchestration templates. In the YAML environment file under parameter_defaults , use the NeutronBridgeMappings to specify which OVS bridges are used for accessing external networks. Example In the custom NIC configuration template for the Controller and Compute nodes, configure the bridges with interfaces attached. Example Run the openstack overcloud deploy command and include the templates and the environment files, including this modified custom NIC template and the new environment file. Important The order of the environment files is important because the parameters and resources defined in subsequent environment files take precedence. Example Verification Create an external network ( public1 ) as a flat network and associate it with the configured physical network ( physnet1 ). Configure it as a shared network (using --share ) to let other users create VM instances that connect to the external network directly. Example Create a subnet ( public_subnet ) using the openstack subnet create command. Example Create a VM instance and connect it directly to the newly-created external network. Example Additional resources Custom network interface templates in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Environment files in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Including environment files in overcloud creation in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide network create in the Command Line Interface Reference subnet create in the Command Line Interface Reference server create in the Command Line Interface Reference 4.4. How does the flat provider network packet flow work? This section describes in detail how traffic flows to and from an instance with flat provider network configuration. The flow of outgoing traffic in a flat provider network The following diagram describes the packet flow for traffic leaving an instance and arriving directly at an external network. After you configure the br-ex external bridge, add the physical interface to the bridge, and spawn an instance to a Compute node, the resulting configuration of interfaces and bridges resembles the configuration in the following diagram (if using the iptables_hybrid firewall driver): Packets leave the eth0 interface of the instance and arrive at the linux bridge qbr-xx . Bridge qbr-xx is connected to br-int using veth pair qvb-xx <-> qvo-xxx . This is because the bridge is used to apply the inbound/outbound firewall rules defined by the security group. Interface qvb-xx is connected to the qbr-xx linux bridge, and qvoxx is connected to the br-int Open vSwitch (OVS) bridge. An example configuration of `qbr-xx`Linux bridge: The configuration of qvo-xx on br-int : Note Port qvo-xx is tagged with the internal VLAN tag associated with the flat provider network. In this example, the VLAN tag is 5 . When the packet reaches qvo-xx , the VLAN tag is appended to the packet header. The packet is then moved to the br-ex OVS bridge using the patch-peer int-br-ex <-> phy-br-ex . Example configuration of the patch-peer on br-int : Example configuration of the patch-peer on br-ex : When this packet reaches phy-br-ex on br-ex , an OVS flow inside br-ex strips the VLAN tag (5) and forwards it to the physical interface. In the following example, the output shows the port number of phy-br-ex as 2 . The following output shows any packet that arrives on phy-br-ex ( in_port=2 ) with a VLAN tag of 5 ( dl_vlan=5 ). In addition, an OVS flow in br-ex strips the VLAN tag and forwards the packet to the physical interface. If the physical interface is another VLAN-tagged interface, then the physical interface adds the tag to the packet. The flow of incoming traffic in a flat provider network This section contains information about the flow of incoming traffic from the external network until it arrives at the interface of the instance. Incoming traffic arrives at eth1 on the physical node. The packet passes to the br-ex bridge. The packet moves to br-int via the patch-peer phy-br-ex <--> int-br-ex . In the following example, int-br-ex uses port number 15 . See the entry containing 15(int-br-ex) : Observing the traffic flow on br-int When the packet arrives at int-br-ex , an OVS flow rule within the br-int bridge amends the packet to add the internal VLAN tag 5 . See the entry for actions=mod_vlan_vid:5 : The second rule manages packets that arrive on int-br-ex (in_port=15) with no VLAN tag (vlan_tci=0x0000): This rule adds VLAN tag 5 to the packet ( actions=mod_vlan_vid:5,NORMAL ) and forwards it to qvoxxx . qvoxxx accepts the packet and forwards it to qvbxx , after stripping away the VLAN tag. The packet then reaches the instance. Note VLAN tag 5 is an example VLAN that was used on a test Compute node with a flat provider network; this value was assigned automatically by neutron-openvswitch-agent . This value may be different for your own flat provider network, and can differ for the same network on two separate Compute nodes. Additional resources Section 4.5, "Troubleshooting instance-physical network connections on flat provider networks" 4.5. Troubleshooting instance-physical network connections on flat provider networks The output provided in "How does the flat provider network packet flow work?" provides sufficient debugging information for troubleshooting a flat provider network, should anything go wrong. The following steps contain further information about the troubleshooting process. Procedure Review bridge_mappings . Verify that the physical network name you use is consistent with the contents of the bridge_mapping configuration. Example In this example, the physical network name is, physnet1 . Sample output Example In this example, the contents of the bridge_mapping configuration is also, physnet1 : Sample output Review the network configuration. Confirm that the network is created as external , and uses the flat type: Example In this example, details about the network, provider-flat , is queried: Sample output Review the patch-peer. Verify that br-int and br-ex are connected using a patch-peer int-br-ex <--> phy-br-ex . Sample output Sample output Configuration of the patch-peer on br-ex : This connection is created when you restart the neutron-openvswitch-agent service, if bridge_mapping is correctly configured in /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/openvswitch_agent.ini . Re-check the bridge_mapping setting if the connection is not created after you restart the service. Review the network flows. Run ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-ex and ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-int , and review whether the flows strip the internal VLAN IDs for outgoing packets, and add VLAN IDs for incoming packets. This flow is first added when you spawn an instance to this network on a specific Compute node. If this flow is not created after spawning the instance, verify that the network is created as flat , is external , and that the physical_network name is correct. In addition, review the bridge_mapping settings. Finally, review the ifcfg-br-ex and ifcfg-ethx configuration. Ensure that ethX is added as a port within br-ex , and that ifcfg-br-ex and ifcfg-ethx have an UP flag in the output of ip a . Sample output The following output shows eth1 is a port in br-ex : Example The following example demonstrates that eth1 is configured as an OVS port, and that the kernel knows to transfer all packets from the interface, and send them to the OVS bridge br-ex . This can be observed in the entry, master ovs-system . Additional resources Section 4.4, "How does the flat provider network packet flow work?" Configuring bridge mappings 4.6. Configuring VLAN provider networks When you connect multiple VLAN-tagged interfaces on a single NIC to multiple provider networks, these new VLAN provider networks can connect VM instances directly to external networks. Prerequisites You have a physical network, with a range of VLANs. This example uses a physical network called physnet1 , with a range of VLANs, 171-172 . Your Network nodes and Compute nodes are connected to a physical network using a physical interface. This example uses Network nodes and Compute nodes that are connected to a physical network, physnet1 , using a physical interface, eth1 . The switch ports that these interfaces connect to must be configured to trunk the required VLAN ranges. Procedure On the undercloud host, logged in as the stack user, create a custom YAML environment file. Example Tip The Red Hat OpenStack Platform Orchestration service (heat) uses a set of plans called templates to install and configure your environment. You can customize aspects of the overcloud with a custom environment file , which is a special type of template that provides customization for your orchestration templates. In the YAML environment file under parameter_defaults , use NeutronTypeDrivers to specify your network type drivers. Example Configure the NeutronNetworkVLANRanges setting to reflect the physical network and VLAN ranges in use: Example Create an external network bridge ( br-ex ), and associate a port ( eth1 ) with it. This example configures eth1 to use br-ex : Example Run the openstack overcloud deploy command and include the core templates and the environment files, including this new environment file. Important The order of the environment files is important because the parameters and resources defined in subsequent environment files take precedence. Example Verification Create the external networks as type vlan , and associate them with the configured physical_network . Run the following example command to create two networks: one for VLAN 171, and another for VLAN 172: Example Create a number of subnets and configure them to use the external network. You can use either openstack subnet create or the dashboard to create these subnets. Ensure that the external subnet details you have received from your network administrator are correctly associated with each VLAN. In this example, VLAN 171 uses subnet 10.65.217.0/24 and VLAN 172 uses 10.65.218.0/24 : Example Additional resources Custom network interface templates in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Environment files in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Including environment files in overcloud creation in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide network create in the Command Line Interface Reference subnet create in the Command Line Interface Reference 4.7. How does the VLAN provider network packet flow work? This section describes in detail how traffic flows to and from an instance with VLAN provider network configuration. The flow of outgoing traffic in a VLAN provider network The following diagram describes the packet flow for traffic leaving an instance and arriving directly to a VLAN provider external network. This example uses two instances attached to the two VLAN networks (171 and 172). After you configure br-ex , add a physical interface to it, and spawn an instance to a Compute node, the resulting configuration of interfaces and bridges resembles the configuration in the following diagram: Packets leaving the eth0 interface of the instance arrive at the linux bridge qbr-xx connected to the instance. qbr-xx is connected to br-int using veth pair qvbxx <-> qvoxxx . qvbxx is connected to the linux bridge qbr-xx and qvoxx is connected to the Open vSwitch bridge br-int . Example configuration of qbr-xx on the Linux bridge. This example features two instances and two corresponding linux bridges: The configuration of qvoxx on br-int : qvoxx is tagged with the internal VLAN tag associated with the VLAN provider network. In this example, the internal VLAN tag 2 is associated with the VLAN provider network provider-171 and VLAN tag 3 is associated with VLAN provider network provider-172 . When the packet reaches qvoxx , the this VLAN tag is added to the packet header. The packet is then moved to the br-ex OVS bridge using patch-peer int-br-ex <-> phy-br-ex . Example patch-peer on br-int : Example configuration of the patch peer on br-ex : When this packet reaches phy-br-ex on br-ex , an OVS flow inside br-ex replaces the internal VLAN tag with the actual VLAN tag associated with the VLAN provider network. The output of the following command shows that the port number of phy-br-ex is 4 : The following command shows any packet that arrives on phy-br-ex ( in_port=4 ) which has VLAN tag 2 ( dl_vlan=2 ). Open vSwitch replaces the VLAN tag with 171 ( actions=mod_vlan_vid:171,NORMAL ) and forwards the packet to the physical interface. The command also shows any packet that arrives on phy-br-ex ( in_port=4 ) which has VLAN tag 3 ( dl_vlan=3 ). Open vSwitch replaces the VLAN tag with 172 ( actions=mod_vlan_vid:172,NORMAL ) and forwards the packet to the physical interface. The neutron-openvswitch-agent adds these rules. This packet is then forwarded to physical interface eth1 . The flow of incoming traffic in a VLAN provider network The following example flow was tested on a Compute node using VLAN tag 2 for provider network provider-171 and VLAN tag 3 for provider network provider-172. The flow uses port 18 on the integration bridge br-int. Your VLAN provider network may require a different configuration. Also, the configuration requirement for a network may differ between two different Compute nodes. The output of the following command shows int-br-ex with port number 18: The output of the following command shows the flow rules on br-int. Incoming flow example This example demonstrates the the following br-int OVS flow: A packet with VLAN tag 172 from the external network reaches the br-ex bridge via eth1 on the physical node. The packet moves to br-int via the patch-peer phy-br-ex <-> int-br-ex . The packet matches the flow's criteria ( in_port=18,dl_vlan=172 ). The flow actions ( actions=mod_vlan_vid:3,NORMAL ) replace the VLAN tag 172 with internal VLAN tag 3 and forwards the packet to the instance with normal Layer 2 processing. Additional resources Section 4.4, "How does the flat provider network packet flow work?" 4.8. Troubleshooting instance-physical network connections on VLAN provider networks Refer to the packet flow described in "How does the VLAN provider network packet flow work?" when troubleshooting connectivity in a VLAN provider network. In addition, review the following configuration options: Procedure Verify that physical network name used in the bridge_mapping configuration matches the physical network name. Example Sample output Example Sample output In this sample output, the physical network name, physnet1 , matches the name used in the bridge_mapping configuration: Confirm that the network was created as external , is type vlan , and uses the correct segmentation_id value: Example Sample output Review the patch-peer. Verify that br-int and br-ex are connected using a patch-peer int-br-ex <--> phy-br-ex . This connection is created while restarting neutron-openvswitch-agent , provided that the bridge_mapping is correctly configured in /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/openvswitch_agent.ini . Recheck the bridge_mapping setting if this is not created even after restarting the service. Review the network flows. To review the flow of outgoing packets, run ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-ex and ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-int , and verify that the flows map the internal VLAN IDs to the external VLAN ID ( segmentation_id ). For incoming packets, map the external VLAN ID to the internal VLAN ID. This flow is added by the neutron OVS agent when you spawn an instance to this network for the first time. If this flow is not created after spawning the instance, ensure that the network is created as vlan , is external , and that the physical_network name is correct. In addition, re-check the bridge_mapping settings. Finally, re-check the ifcfg-br-ex and ifcfg-ethx configuration. Ensure that br-ex includes port ethX , and that both ifcfg-br-ex and ifcfg-ethx have an UP flag in the output of the ip a command. Example In this sample output, eth1 is a port in br-ex : Example Sample output In this sample output, eth1 has been added as a port, and that the kernel is configured to move all packets from the interface to the OVS bridge br-ex . This is demonstrated by the entry, master ovs-system . Additional resources Section 4.7, "How does the VLAN provider network packet flow work?" 4.9. Enabling multicast snooping for provider networks in an ML2/OVS deployment To prevent flooding multicast packets to every port in a Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) provider network, you must enable multicast snooping. In RHOSP deployments that use the Modular Layer 2 plug-in with the Open vSwitch mechanism driver (ML2/OVS), you do this by declaring the RHOSP Orchestration (heat) NeutronEnableIgmpSnooping parameter in a YAML-formatted environment file. Important You should thoroughly test and understand any multicast snooping configuration before applying it to a production environment. Misconfiguration can break multicasting or cause erratic network behavior. Prerequisites Your configuration must only use ML2/OVS provider networks. Your physical routers must also have IGMP snooping enabled. That is, the physical router must send IGMP query packets on the provider network to solicit regular IGMP reports from multicast group members to maintain the snooping cache in OVS (and for physical networking). An RHOSP Networking service security group rule must be in place to allow inbound IGMP to the VM instances (or port security disabled). In this example, a rule is created for the ping_ssh security group: Example Procedure On the undercloud host, logged in as the stack user, create a custom YAML environment file. Example Tip The Orchestration service (heat) uses a set of plans called templates to install and configure your environment. You can customize aspects of the overcloud with a custom environment file, which is a special type of template that provides customization for your heat templates. In the YAML environment file under parameter_defaults , set NeutronEnableIgmpSnooping to true. Important Ensure that you add a whitespace character between the colon (:) and true . Run the openstack overcloud deploy command and include the core heat templates, environment files, and this new custom environment file. Important The order of the environment files is important as the parameters and resources defined in subsequent environment files take precedence. Example Verification Verify that the multicast snooping is enabled. Example Sample output Additional resources Neutron in Component, Plug-In, and Driver Support in Red Hat OpenStack Platform Environment files in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Including environment files in overcloud creation in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Networking (neutron) Parameters in the Overcloud Parameters guide Creating a security group in the Creating and Managing Instances guide 4.10. Enabling multicast in an ML2/OVN deployment To support multicast traffic, modify the deployment's security configuration to allow multicast traffic to reach the virtual machine (VM) instances in the multicast group. To prevent multicast traffic flooding, enable IGMP snooping. Important Test and understand any multicast snooping configuration before applying it to a production environment. Misconfiguration can break multicasting or cause erratic network behavior. Prerequisites An OpenStack deployment with the ML2/OVN mechanism driver. Procedure Configure security to allow multicast traffic to the appropriate VM instances. For instance, create a pair of security group rules to allow IGMP traffic from the IGMP querier to enter and exit the VM instances, and a third rule to allow multicast traffic. Example A security group mySG allows IGMP traffic to enter and exit the VM instances. Another rule allows multicast traffic to reach VM instances. As an alternative to setting security group rules, some operators choose to selectively disable port security on the network. If you choose to disable port security, consider and plan for any related security risks. Set the heat parameter NeutronEnableIgmpSnooping: True in an environment file on the undercloud node. For instance, add the following lines to ovn-extras.yaml. Example Include the environment file in the openstack overcloud deploy command with any other environment files that are relevant to your environment and deploy the overcloud. Replace <other_overcloud_environment_files> with the list of environment files that are part of your existing deployment. Verification Verify that the multicast snooping is enabled. List the northbound database Logical_Switch table. Sample output The Networking Service (neutron) igmp_snooping_enable configuration is translated into the mcast_snoop option set in the other_config column of the Logical_Switch table in the OVN Northbound Database. Note that mcast_flood_unregistered is always "false". Show the IGMP groups. Sample output Additional resources Neutron in Component, Plug-In, and Driver Support in Red Hat OpenStack Platform Environment files in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide Including environment files in overcloud creation in the Advanced Overcloud Customization guide 4.11. Enabling Compute metadata access Instances connected as described in this chapter are directly attached to the provider external networks, and have external routers configured as their default gateway. No OpenStack Networking (neutron) routers are used. This means that neutron routers cannot be used to proxy metadata requests from instances to the nova-metadata server, which may result in failures while running cloud-init . However, this issue can be resolved by configuring the dhcp agent to proxy metadata requests. You can enable this functionality in /etc/neutron/dhcp_agent.ini . For example: 4.12. Floating IP addresses You can use the same network to allocate floating IP addresses to instances, even if the floating IPs are already associated with private networks. The addresses that you allocate as floating IPs from this network are bound to the qrouter-xxx namespace on the Network node, and perform DNAT-SNAT to the associated private IP address. In contrast, the IP addresses that you allocate for direct external network access are bound directly inside the instance, and allow the instance to communicate directly with external network.
