-Scenario: "OpenStack - OpenDaylight - FD.io DVR"
-======================================================
-
-Scenario: apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha
-
-"apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha" is a scenario developed as part of the
-FastDataStacks OPNFV project. The main components of the
-"apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha" scenario are:
-
- - APEX (TripleO) installer (please also see APEX installer documentation)
- - Openstack (in HA configuration)
- - OpenDaylight controller (in cluster)
- controlling layer 2 and layer 3 networking
- - FD.io/VPP virtual forwarder for tenant networking
-
-Introduction
-============
-
-NFV and virtualized high performance applications, such as video processing,
-require a "fast data stack" solution that provides both carrier grade
-forwarding performance, scalability and open extensibility, along with
-functionality for realizing application policies and controlling a complex
-network topology.
-
-A solution stack is only as good as its foundation. Key foundational assets for
-NFV infrastructure are
-
- * The virtual forwarder: The virtual forwarder needs to be a feature rich,
- high performance, highly scale virtual switch-router. It needs to leverage
- hardware accelerators when available and run in user space.
- In addition, it should be modular and easily extensible.
- * Forwarder diversity: A solution stack should support a variety of
- forwarders, hardware forwarders (physical switches and routers)
- as well as software forwarders. This way virtual and physical
- forwarding domains can be seamlessly glued together.
- * Policy driven connectivity: Connectivity should respect and
- reflect different business
-
-In order to meet the desired qualities of an NFV infrastructure, the
-following components were chosen for the "Openstack - OpenDaylight - FD.io"
-scenario:
-
- * FD.io Vector Packet Processor (VPP) - a highly scalable,
- high performance, extensible virtual forwarder
- * OpenDaylight Controller - an extensible controller platform which
- offers the ability to separate business logic from networking
- constructs, supports a diverse set of network devices
- (virtual and physical) via the "group based policy (GBP)"
- component, and can be clustered to achieve a highly available
- deployment.
-
-The "Openstack - OpenDaylight - FD.io DVR" scenario provides the capability to
-realize a set of use-cases relevant to the deployment of NFV nodes instantiated
-by means of an Openstack orchestration system on FD.io/VPP enabled compute
-nodes. The role of the Opendaylight network controller in this integration is
-twofold. It provides a network device configuration and topology abstraction
-via the Openstack Neutron interface, while providing the capability to realize
-more complex network policies by means of Group Based Policies. Furthermore it
-also provides the capabilities to monitor as well as visualize the operation of
-the virtual network devices and their topologies. In supporting the general
-use-case of instantiatiting an NFV instance, two specific types of network
-transport use cases are realized:
-
- * NFV instances with VPP data-plane forwarding using a VLAN provider network
- * NFV instances with VPP data-plane forwarding using a VXLAN overlay
- transport network
-
-A deployment of the "apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha" scenario consists of 4 or more
-servers:
-
- * 1 Jumphost hosting the APEX installer - running the Undercloud
- * 1 Controlhost, which runs the Overcloud as well as
- OpenDaylight as a network controller
- * 2 or more Computehosts. These Computehosts also serve as
- layer 3 gateways for tenant networks.
-
-TODO: update the image:
- 1. Compute 0..N are gateways
- 2. NIC2s on controllers are not in vpp
-
-.. image:: FDS-odl_l3-noha-overview.png
-
-Tenant and public networking leverages FD.io/VPP. On compute nodes,
-VPP binds to both the tenant networking interface as well as the public
-networking interface. This means that VPP is used for communication within
-a tenant network, between tenant networks, as well as between a tenant network
-and the Internet.
-
-Note that this setup slightly differs from the usual
-centralized L3 setup with qrouter on the control node. This setup was chosen
-to limit the configuration changes for the introduction of FD.io/VPP. The
-OpenDaylight network controller is used to setup and manage layer 2 and
-layer 3 networking for the scenario - with Group Based Policy (GBP) being the
-key component. Tenant networking can either leverage VXLAN (in which case a
-full mesh of VXLAN tunnels is created) or VLANs.
-
-The picture below shows an example setup with two compute and one control
-node. Note that the external network is connected via compute node 0 through
-VPP. VPP provides all layer 3 services which are provided in a "vanilla"
-OpenStack deployment, including SNAT and DNAT, as well as north-south
-and east-west traffic filtering for security purposes ("security groups").
-
-TODO: update the image:
- 1. Add External network interface to Computenode-1

-
-Features of the scenario
-------------------------
-
-Main features of the "apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha" scenario:
-
- * Automated installation using the APEX installer
- * Fast and scalable tenant networking using FD.io/VPP as forwarder
- * Layer 2 networking using VLANs or VXLAN, managed
- and controlled through OpenDaylight
- * Layer 3 connectivitiy for tenant networks supplied
- through FD.io/VPP. Layer 3 features, including security groups as well as
- floating IP addresses (i.e. NAT) are implemented by the FD.io/VPP forwarder
- * Manual and automatic (via DHCP) addressing on tenant networks
-
-Scenario components and composition
-===================================
-
-TODO: add LISP to components
-
-The apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha scenario combines components from three key open
-source projects: OpenStack, OpenDaylight, and Fast Data (FD.io). The key
-components that realize the apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha scenario and which differ
-from a regular, OVS-based scenario, are the OpenStack ML2 OpenDaylight plugin,
-OpenDaylight Neutron Northbound, OpenDaylight Group Based Policy, OpenDaylight
-Virtual Bridge Domain Manager, FD.io Honeycomb management agent and FD.io
-Vector Packet Processor (VPP).
-
-Note that the key components of the OpenDaylight based scenarios of
-FastDataStacks are the same. The centrallized scenario "apex-os-odl-fdio-noha"
-and the DVR scenario "apex-os-odl-fdio-dvr-ha" share the same components.
-
-Here's a more detailed list of the individual software components involved:
-
-**Openstack Neutron ML2 OpenDaylight Plugin**: Handles Neutron data base
-synchronization and interaction with the southbound controller using a REST
-interface.
-
-**ODL GBP Neutron Mapper**: Maps neutron elements like networks, subnets,
-security groups, etc. to GBP entities: Creates policy and configuration for
-tenants (endpoints, resolved policies, forwarding rules).
-
-**ODL GBP Neutron VPP Mapper**: Maps Neutron ports to VPP endpoints in GBP.
-
-**ODL GBP Location Manager**: Provides real location for endpoints (i.e. Which
-physical node an endpoint is connected to).
-
-**GBP Renderer Manager**: Creates configuration for Renderers (like e.g.
-VPP-Renderer or OVS-Renderer). The GBP Renderer Manager is the central point
-for dispatching of data to specific device renderers. It uses the information
-derived from the GBP end-point and its topology entries to dispatch the task
-of configuration to a specific device renderer by writing a renderer policy
-configuration into the registered renderer's policy store. The renderer
-manager also monitors, by being a data change listener on the VPP Renderer
-Policy States, for any errors in the application of a rendered configuration.
-
-**GBP VPP Renderer Interface Manager**: Listens to VPP endpoints in the
-Config DataStore and configures associated interfaces on VPP via HoneyComb.
-
-**GBP VPP Renderer Renderer Policy Manager**: Manages the creation of
-bridge domains using VBD and assigns interfaces to bridge domains.
-
-**Virtual Bridge Domain Manager (VBD)**: Creates bridge domains (i.e. in case
-of VXLAN creates full mesh of VXLAN tunnels, configures split horizon on
-tunnel endpoints etc.). VDB configures VXLAN tunnels always into a full-mesh
-with split-horizon group forwarding applied on any domain facing tunnel
-interface (i.e. forwarding behavior will be that used for VPLS).
-
-**Virtual Packet Processor (VPP) and Honeycomb server**: The VPP is the
-accelerated data plane forwarding engine relying on vhost user interfaces
-towards Virtual Machines created by the Nova Agent. The Honeycomb NETCONF
-configuration server is responsible for driving the configuration of the VPP,
-and collecting the operational data.
-
-**Nova Agent**: The Nova Agent, a sub-component of the overall Openstack
-architecture, is responsible for interacting with the compute node's host
-Libvirt API to drive the life-cycle of Virtual Machines. It, along with the
-compute node software, are assumed to be capable of supporting vhost user
-interfaces.
-
-The picture below shows the key components.
-
-TODO: update the image:
- 1. Add LISP
-
-.. image:: FDS-basic-components.jpg
-
-To provide a better understanding how the above mentioned components interact
-with each other, the following diagram shows how the example of creating a
-vhost-user port on VPP through Openstack Neutron:
-
-To create or update a port, Neutron will send a request to ODL Neutron
-Northbound which contains the UUID, along with the host-id as "vpp" and
-vif-type as "vhost-user". The GBP Neutron mapper turns the "Neutron speak" of
-"ports" into the generic connectivity model that GroupBasedPolicy uses.
-Neutron "ports" become generic "GBP Endpoints" which can be consumed by the
-GBP Renderer Manager. The GBP Renderer Manager resolves the policy for the
-endpoint, i.e. it determines which communication relationships apply to the
-specific endpoint, and hands the resolution to a device specific renderer,
-which is the VPP renderer in the given case here. VPP renderer turns the
-generic policy into VPP specific configuration. Note that in case the policy
-would need to be applied to a different device, e.g. an OpenVSwitch (OVS),
-then an "OVS Renderer" would be used. VPP Renderer and the topology manager
-("Virtual Bridge Domain" manager - i.e. VBD) cooperate to create the actual
-network configuration. VPP Renderer configures the interfaces to the virtual
-machines (VM), i.e. the vhost-user interface in the given case here and
-attaches them to a bridge domain on VPP. VBD handles the setup of connectivity
-between bridge domains on individual VPPs, i.e. it maintains the VXLAN tunnels
-in the given case here. Both VPP Renderer as well as VBD communicate with the
-device through Netconf/YANG. All compute and control nodes run an instance of
-VPP and the VPP-configuration agent "Honeycomb". Honeycomb serves as a
-Netconf/YANG server, receives the configuration commands from VBD and VPP
-Renderer and drives VPP configuration using VPP's local Java APIs.

-TODO: add description (and possibly a picture) of how forwarding works -
- describe how packets travel in the setup
- NOTE: could be in some different place in the document
