Arista Neutron ML2 Driver
Overview
Arista ML2 Mechanism Driver implement ML2 Plugin Driver API
Directory Structure
The Arista Neutron ML2 Driver can be downloaded from the repository located at:
https://github.com/sukhdevkapur/neutron (branch: master)
This repository represents code that will be put into the mech_arista directory as:
/opt/stack/neutron/neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/mech_arista
Requirements
- Prior to enabling Arista Driver, Arista EAPI Host (see configuration example below) must be up and running. For details, please see Arista OpenStack Deployment Guide
- Ensure that Jsonrpclib is installed (see Arista OpenStack Deployment Guide)
Configuration
Arista Driver configuration (Neutron server node)
- Edit /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf_arista.ini:
l[ml2_arista]
# (StrOpt) vEOS IP address. This is required field. If not set, all
# communications to Arista EOS will fail
#
# eapi_host =
# Example: eapi_host = 192.168.0.1
#
# (StrOpt) vEOS command API username. This is required field.
# if not set, all communications to Arista EOS will fail.
#
# eapi_username =
# Example: arista_eapi_username = admin
#
# (StrOpt) vEOS command API password. This is required field.
# if not set, all communications to Arista EOS will fail.
#
# eapi_password =
# Example: eapi_password = my_password
#
# (StrOpt) Defines if hostnames are sent to Arista vEOS as FQDNs
# ("node1.domain.com") or as short names ("node1"). This is
# optional. If not set, a value of "True" is assumed.
#
# use_fqdn =
# Example: use_fqdn = True
#
# (IntOpt) Sync interval in seconds between Quantum plugin and vEOS.
# This field defines how often the synchronization is performed.
# This is an optional field. If not set, a value of 180 seconds
# is assumed.
#
# sync_interval =
# Example: sync_interval = 60
#
# (StrOpt) Defines Region Name that is assigned to this OpenStack Controller.
# This is useful when multiple OpenStack/Neutron controllers are
# managing the same Arista HW clusters. Note that this name must
# match with the region name registered (or known) to keystone
# service. Authentication with Keysotne is performed by EOS.
# This is optional. If not set, a value of "RegionOne" is assumed.
#
# region_name =
# Example: region_name = RegionOne
Start the neutron service by providing the relevant configuration files
cd <neutron_path> && python <neutron_path>/bin/neutron-server --config-file /etc/neutron/neutron.conf --config-file /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini --config-file /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf_arista.ini </nowiki></pre>
