Introduction
============
.. 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
===================================
.. In this section describe the unique components that make up the scenario,
.. what each component provides and why it has been included in order
.. to communicate to the user the capabilities available in this scenario.
<Where applicable and without copying the installation procedure in the install guides>
Describe Neutron BGPVPN additions (networking-bgpvpn)
Neutron odl additions (networking-odl)
Usage and the role of Quagga (incl. config on ODL side)
OVS and ODL specifics around setting up the right bridges (network architecture)
"" iptables to allow connections between OVS and ODL
"" HA proxy so that ODL can be reached
Scenario usage overview
=======================
.. Provide a brief overview on how to use the scenario and the features available to the
.. user. This should be an "introduction" to the userguide document, and explicitly link to it,
.. where the specifics of the features are covered including examples and API's
When would I use this scenario, what value does it provide? Refer to the userguide for details
of configuration etc...
Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
===================================
.. Explain scenario limitations here, this should be at a design level rather than discussing
.. faults or bugs. If the system design only provide some expected functionality then provide
.. some insight at this point.
Currently, in OPNFV only ODL is supported as a backend for BGPVPN. 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. Do we have constraints on the use of
Quagga that may change in the future?
