In this section explain the purpose of the scenario and the types of capabilities provided + +Many telecom network functions are relying on layer-3 infrastructure services, within a VNF +between components, or towards existing external networks. In many cases, these external +networks are implemented in MPLS/BGP technology in existing service provider wide-area-networks (WAN). + +This proven technology provides a good mechanism for inter-operation of a NFV Infrastructure (NFVI) +and wide-area networks (WAN) and is the main feature set provided by the BGP VPN project. + +This document provides an outline of the os-odl_l2-bgpvpn scenarios of OPNFV including +guidelines and references to required installation, software and hardware configuration documents. + + <To be completed, this outlines the basic content and flow> + Description of bgpvpn scenarios + Description of the internal transport tunnel mesh + Install Neutron BGPVPN additions (networking-bgpvpn) + Neutron odl additions (networking-odl) + install and configure Quagga (incl. config on ODL side) + configure OVS to connect to ODL and set up the right bridges (network architecture) + set up iptables to allow connections between OVS and ODL + set up HA proxy so that ODL can be reached + +Scenario components and composition +=================================== +..

API calls are +mapped onto the ODL VPN Service REST API through the BGPVPN ODL driver and the +ODL Neutron Northbound module. + +Are there places these basic procedures will not work.
