OVSDB VTEP with Midonet Configuration
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
- Trident-II Series switch
- PicOS OS Release 2.6 and higher
- Midonet controller
Overview
In this example, OVSDB VTEP is configured to run on a VXLAN domain. VTEP interface sources are configured to the loopback address. Interfaces are configured for VLAN tagging and encapsulation. Static route protocols are configured to facilitate unicast routing.
Topology
The VXLAN networks Host and VM IP address and Mac address information:
Host IP Address: 172.168.1.1, Mac address: 00:07:43:05:45:11
VM1 IP Address: 172.168.1.2, Mac address: fa:16:3e:00:0c:f3
VM1 IP Address: 172.168.1.3, Mac address: fa:16:3e:28:aa:cd
Configuring OVSDB on Trident-II Series Switches
CLI Quick Configuration
To quickly configure this example, copy the following commands, paste them into a text file, remove any line breaks, change any details necessary to match your network configuration, and copy and paste the commands into the CLI.
SW1 Configure:
set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/33 speed "1000" set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/33 family ethernet-switching native-vlan-id 1000 set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/43 family ethernet-switching port-mode "trunk" set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/43 family ethernet-switching vlan members 100 set protocols ovsdb management-ip 10.10.51.157 set protocols ovsdb controller c1 protocol "ptcp" set protocols ovsdb interface te-1/1/43 set l3-interface vlan-interface 1000 address 192.168.10.1 prefix-length 24 set vlans vlan-id 100 set vlans vlan-id 1000 l3-interface "1000" set vxlans source-interface 1000 address 192.168.10.1 set vxlans ovsdb-managed true
Configuring OVSDB Step-by-Step Procedure
The following example shows how to set up a basic VTEP OVSDB configuration with VXLAN domain. To configure VXLAN on Trident-II Series switches, follow these steps:
Configuring OVSDB Step-by-Step for SW1
Configure the VLAN ID to 10 for vxlan domain.
set vlans vlan-id 100
Configure the VLAN ID to 1000 for IP routing.
set vlans vlan-id 1000 l3-interface vlan-1000
Configure the te-1/1/1 interface VLAN ID to 1000.
set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/33 family ethernet-switching native-vlan-id 1000
Configure VLAN trunk for te-1/1/43.
set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/43 family ethernet-switching port-mode "trunk"
Configure the te-1/1/43 interface VLAN ID to 100.
set interface gigabit-ethernet te-1/1/43 family ethernet-switching vlan members 100
Configure IP address for the loopback interface.
set l3-interface loopback lo address 10.10.10.1 prefix-length 32
Configure IP address for the vlan-interface vlan-1000.
set l3-interface vlan-interface vlan-1000 address 192.168.10.1 prefix-length 24
Configure VTEP interface sources IP address.
set vxlans source-interface vlan-1000 address 192.168.10.1
Enable VXLAN managed by ovsdb
set vxlan ovsdb-managed true
Configure ovsdb management interface IP address
set protocols ovsdb management-ip 10.10.51.157
Configure ovsdb controller protocol
set protocols ovsdb controller c1 protocol ptcp
Configure ovsdb controller port
set protocols ovsdb controller ovsdb port 6632
Configure ovsdb the interface on the VTEP
set protocols ovsdb interface te-1/1/43

Create a binding between the VTEP and a Neutron network behind a MidoNet bridge
midonet> bridge list bridge bridge1 name vxlan state up midonet> show bridge bridge1 id 85296f07-2235-4963-8160-fb66eca85675 midonet>
Add the host’s IP address to the same tunnel zone as the VTEP
midonet> tunnel-zone tzone0 add member host host0 address 192.168.10.2 zone tzone0 host host0 address 192.168.10.2 midonet>
Create a binding between the VTEP’s vlan 100 interface te-1/1/43 and the Neutron network behind the bridge1
midonet> vtep management-ip 10.10.51.157 binding add network-id 85296f07-2235-4963-8160-fb66eca85675 physical-port te-1/1/43 vlan 100 Internal error: The server could not comply with the request since it is either malformed or otherwise incorrect. midonet> vtep management-ip 10.10.51.157 binding list management-ip 10.10.51.157 physical-port te-1/1/43 vlan 100 network-id 85296f07-2235-4963-8160-fb66eca85675
Add the IP address of the host on the VTEP to the security group ip-address-group0
midonet> ip-address-group ip-address-group0 add ip address 172.168.1.1 address 172.168.1.1 midonet>
