Installing and Running GBP with Cisco APIC
The following are a set of instructions for installing and working with the Cisco APIC:
Devstack Installation
0. Install Ubuntu 14.04.
1. git clone http://github.com/group-policy/devstack -b stable/juno-gbp-apic
2. cd devstack
3. Configure the local.conf file.
- Set HOST_IP
- Set Q_PLUGIN_EXTRA_CONF_PATH. This should point to the path where the ml2_conf_cisco.ini file resides. Note it should NOT start with a /.
4. Configure ml2_conf_cisco.ini at the path you chose. For complete instructions on available options see this document. An example file would look like this:
[DEFAULT] # Unique Name for identifying the Openstack Cluster apic_system_id=gbp3 [ml2_cisco_apic] # Host Name for the APIC Controller apic_hosts=172.31.100.1 # Username for the APIC Controller apic_username=admin # Password for the APIC Controller apic_password=cisco123 # How to map names to APIC: use_uuid or use_name apic_name_mapping=use_name # Switch to hypervisor port mapping [apic_switch:101] ubuntu-gbp=1/5
4. ./stack.sh
5. source openrc demo demo
6. Use the "gbp" CLI binary ("gbp --help" will give you the commands)
