OpenStack with NetVirt
======================
.. contents:: Table of Contents
      :depth: 2

**Prerequisites**: OpenDaylight requires Java 1.8.0 and Open vSwitch >= 2.5.0

Installing OpenDaylight on an existing OpenStack
------------------------------------------------
* On the control host, `Download the latest OpenDaylight release <https://www.opendaylight.org/software/downloads>`_
* Uncompress it as root, and start OpenDaylight (you can start OpenDaylight
  by running karaf directly, but exiting from the shell will shut it down):

  .. code-block:: bash

      tar xvfz distribution-karaf-0.5.1-Boron-SR1.tar.gz
      cd distribution-karaf-0.5.1-Boron-SR1
      ./bin/start # Start OpenDaylight as a server process

* Connect to the Karaf shell, and install the odl-netvirt-openstack bundle
  and their dependencies:

  .. code-block:: bash

      ./bin/client # Connect to OpenDaylight with the client
      opendaylight-user@root> feature:install odl-netvirt-openstack odl-mdsal-apidocs

Optional - Advanced OpenDaylight Installation - Configurations and Clustering
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* ACL Implementation - Security Groups - Stateful:

  * Default implementation used is stateful, requiring OVS compiled with conntrack modules.
  * This requires using a linux kernel that is >= 4.3
  * To check if OVS is running with conntrack support:

    .. code-block:: bash

       root@devstack:~/# lsmod | grep conntrack | grep openvswitch
         nf_conntrack          106496  9 xt_CT,openvswitch,nf_nat,nf_nat_ipv4,xt_conntrack,nf_conntrack_netlink,xt_connmark,nf_conntrack_ipv4,nf_conntrack_ipv6

  * If the conntrack modules are not installed for OVS, either recompile/install an OVS version with conntrack support, or alternatively configure OpenDaylight to use a non-stateful implementation.
  * OpenvSwitch 2.5 with conntrack support can be acquired from this repository for yum based linux distributions:

    .. code-block:: bash

       yum install -y http://rdoproject.org/repos/openstack-newton/rdo-release-newton.rpm
       yum install -y --nogpgcheck openvswitch
  * To spwan a VM with security groups disabled:

    .. code-block:: bash

       crudini --set /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini ml2 extension_drivers port_security

       openstack port create --network=net1 --disable-port-security port1
       openstack server create --flavor m1.tiny --image cirros --port port1 vm1


* Running multiple OpenDaylight controllers in a cluster:

  * For redundancy, it is possible to run OpenDaylight in a 3-node cluster.
  * More info on Clustering available `here <http://docs.opendaylight.org/en/latest/getting-started-guide/common-features/clustering.html>`_.
  * To configure OpenDaylight in clustered mode, run <ODL_FOLDER>/bin/configure_cluster.sh on each node prior to running OpenDaylight.
    This script is used to configure cluster parameters on this controller. The user should restart controller to apply changes.

    .. code-block:: bash

       Usage: ./configure_cluster.sh <index> <seed_nodes_list>
       - index: Integer within 1..N, where N is the number of seed nodes.
       - seed_nodes_list: List of seed nodes, separated by comma or space.

  * The address at the provided index should belong this controller.
    When running this script on multiple seed nodes, keep the seed_node_list same,
    and vary the index from 1 through N.

  * Optionally, shards can be configured in a more granular way by modifying the file
    "custom_shard_configs.txt" in the same folder as this tool.
    Please see that file for more details.

  .. note::
     OpenDaylight should be restarted after applying any of the above changes via configuration files.

Ensuring OpenStack network state is clean
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
When using OpenDaylight as the Neutron back-end, OpenDaylight expects to be the only source of
truth for Neutron configurations. Because of this, it is necessary to remove existing OpenStack
configurations to give OpenDaylight a clean slate.

* Delete instances:

  .. code-block:: bash

      nova list
      nova delete <instance names>

* Remove links from subnets to routers:

  .. code-block:: bash

      neutron subnet-list
      neutron router-list
      neutron router-port-list <router name>
      neutron router-interface-delete <router name> <subnet ID or name>

* Delete subnets, networks, routers:

  .. code-block:: bash

      neutron subnet-delete <subnet name>
      neutron net-list
      neutron net-delete <net name>
      neutron router-delete <router name>

* Check that all ports have been cleared - at this point, this should be an
  empty list:

  .. code-block:: bash

      neutron port-list


Ensure Neutron is stopped
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
While Neutron is managing the OVS instances on compute and control nodes,
OpenDaylight and Neutron can be in conflict. To prevent issues, we turn off
Neutron server on the network controller, and Neutron's Open vSwitch agents
on all hosts.

* Turn off neutron-server on control node:

  .. code-block:: bash

      systemctl stop neutron-server
      systemctl stop neutron-l3-agent

* On each node in the cluster, shut down and disable Neutron's agent services to
  ensure that they do not restart after a reboot:

  .. code-block:: bash

      systemctl stop neutron-openvswitch-agent
      systemctl disable
      neutron-openvswitch-agent
      systemctl stop neutron-l3-agent
      systemctl disable neutron-l3-agent


Configuring Open vSwitch to be managed by OpenDaylight
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
On each host (both compute and control nodes) we will clear the pre-existing
Open vSwitch config and set OpenDaylight to manage the switch:

* Stop the Open vSwitch service, and clear existing OVSDB (OpenDaylight expects to
  manage vSwitches completely):

  .. code-block:: bash

      systemctl stop openvswitch
      rm -rf /var/log/openvswitch/*
      rm -rf /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
      systemctl start openvswitch

* At this stage, your Open vSwitch configuration should be empty:

  .. code-block:: bash

      [root@odl-compute2 ~]# ovs-vsctl show
      9f3b38cb-eefc-4bc7-828b-084b1f66fbfd
          ovs_version: "2.5.1"

* Set OpenDaylight as the manager on all nodes:

  .. code-block:: bash

      ovs-vsctl set-manager tcp:{CONTROL_HOST}:6640

* Set the IP to be used for VXLAN connectivity on all nodes.
  This IP must correspond to an actual linux interface on each machine.

  .. code-block:: bash

      sudo ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:local_ip=<ip>

* You should now see a new section in your Open vSwitch configuration
  showing that you are connected to the OpenDaylight server via OVSDB,
  and OpenDaylight will automatically create a br-int bridge that is
  connected via OpenFlow to the controller:

  .. code-block:: bash
     :emphasize-lines: 4,6-7

     [root@odl-compute2 ~]# ovs-vsctl show
     9f3b38cb-eefc-4bc7-828b-084b1f66fbfd
          Manager "tcp:172.16.21.56:6640"
              is_connected: true
          Bridge br-int
              Controller "tcp:172.16.21.56:6653"
                  is_connected: true
              fail_mode: secure
              Port br-int
                  Interface br-int
          ovs_version: "2.5.1"

      [root@odl-compute2 ~]# ovs-vsctl get Open_vSwitch . other_config
      {local_ip="10.0.42.161"}

* If you do not see the result above (specifically, if you do not see "is_connected: true" in the Manager section or in the Controller section), you may not have a security policies in place to allow Open vSwitch remote administration.

  .. note::
     | There might be iptables restrictions - if so the relevant ports should be opened (6640, 6653).
     | If SELinux is running on your linux, set to permissive mode on all nodes and ensure it stays that way after boot.

     .. code-block:: bash

        setenforce 0
        sed -i -e 's/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=permissive/g' /etc/selinux/config

* Make sure all nodes, including the control node, are connected to OpenDaylight.

* If something has gone wrong, check ``data/log/karaf.log`` under
  the OpenDaylight distribution directory. If you do not see any interesting
  log entries, set logging for netvirt to TRACE level inside Karaf and try again:

  .. code-block:: bash

     log:set TRACE netvirt

Configuring Neutron to use OpenDaylight
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Once you have configured the vSwitches to connect to OpenDaylight, you can
now ensure that OpenStack Neutron is using OpenDaylight.

This requires the neutron networking-odl module to be installed.
| ``pip install networking-odl``

First, ensure that port 8181 (which will be used by OpenDaylight to listen
for REST calls) is available. OpenDaylight can be configured to listen on a different port,
by modifying the ``jetty.port`` property value in ``etc/jetty.conf``.

.. code-block:: bash

   <Set name="port">
       <Property name="jetty.port" default="8181" />
   </Set>

* Configure Neutron to use OpenDaylight's ML2 driver:

  .. code-block:: bash

     crudini --set /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini ml2 mechanism_drivers opendaylight
     crudini --set /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini ml2 tenant_network_types vxlan

     cat <<EOT>> /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini
     [ml2_odl]
     url = http://{CONTROL_HOST}:8181/controller/nb/v2/neutron
     password = admin
     username = admin
     EOT

* Configure Neutron to use OpenDaylight's odl-router service plugin for L3 connectivity:

  .. code-block:: bash

     crudini --set /etc/neutron/plugins/neutron.conf DEFAULT service_plugins odl-router

* Configure Neutron DHCP agent to provide metadata services:

  .. code-block:: bash

     crudini --set /etc/neutron/plugins/dhcp_agent.ini DEFAULT force_metadata True

  .. note::
     | If the OpenStack version being used is Newton, this workaround should be applied,
     | configuring the Neutron DHCP agent to use vsctl as the OVSDB interface:

     .. code-block:: bash

        crudini --set /etc/neutron/plugins/dhcp_agent.ini OVS ovsdb_interface vsctl

* Reset Neutron's database

  .. code-block:: bash

     mysql -e "DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS neutron;"
     mysql -e "CREATE DATABASE neutron CHARACTER SET utf8;"
     /usr/local/bin/neutron-db-manage --config-file /etc/neutron/neutron.conf --config-file /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini upgrade head

* Restart neutron-server:

  .. code-block:: bash

     systemctl start neutron-server

Verifying it works
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Verify that OpenDaylight's ML2 interface is working:

  .. code-block:: bash

     curl -u admin:admin http://{CONTROL_HOST}:8181/controller/nb/v2/neutron/networks

     {
        "networks" : [ ]
     }

  | If this does not work or gives an error, check Neutron's log file in ``/var/log/neutron/server.log``.
  | Error messages here should give some clue as to what the problem is in the connection with OpenDaylight.

* Create a network, subnet, router, connect ports, and start an instance using the Neutron CLI:

  .. code-block:: bash

     neutron router-create router1
     neutron net-create private
     neutron subnet-create private --name=private_subnet 10.10.5.0/24
     neutron router-interface-add router1 private_subnet
     nova boot --flavor <flavor> --image <image id> --nic net-id=<network id> test1
     nova boot --flavor <flavor> --image <image id> --nic net-id=<network id> test2

At this point, you have confirmed that OpenDaylight is creating network
end-points for instances on your network and managing traffic to them.

| VMs can be reached using Horizon console, or alternatively by issuing ``nova get-vnc-console <vm> novnc``
| Through the console, connectivity between VMs can be verified.

Adding an external network for floating IP connectivity
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* In order to connect to the VM using a floating IP, we need to configure external network connectivity, by creating an external network and subnet. This external network must be linked to a physical port on the machine, which will provide connectivity to an external gateway.

  .. code-block:: bash

     sudo ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:provider_mappings=physnet1:eth1
     neutron net-create public-net -- --router:external --is-default --provider:network_type=flat --provider:physical_network=physnet1
     neutron subnet-create --allocation-pool start=10.10.10.2,end=10.10.10.254 --gateway 10.10.10.1 --name public-subnet public-net 10.10.0.0/16 -- --enable_dhcp=False
     neutron router-gateway-set router1 public-net

     neutron floatingip-create public-net
     nova floating-ip-associate test1 <floating_ip>

Installing OpenStack and OpenDaylight using DevStack
----------------------------------------------------
The easiest way to load and OpenStack setup using OpenDaylight is by using devstack, which does all the steps mentioned in previous sections.
| ``git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack-dev/devstack``

* The following lines need to be added to your local.conf:

  .. code-block:: bash

   enable_plugin networking-odl http://git.openstack.org/openstack/networking-odl <branch>
   ODL_MODE=allinone
   Q_ML2_PLUGIN_MECHANISM_DRIVERS=opendaylight,logger
   ODL_GATE_SERVICE_PROVIDER=vpnservice
   disable_service q-l3
   ML2_L3_PLUGIN=odl-router
   ODL_PROVIDER_MAPPINGS={PUBLIC_PHYSICAL_NETWORK}:<external linux interface>

* More details on using devstack can be found in the following links:

  * `Devstack All-In-One Single Machine Tutorial <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/devstack/guides/single-machine.html>`_
  * `Devstack networking-odl README <https://github.com/openstack/networking-odl/blob/master/devstack/README.rst>`_

Troubleshooting
---------------
VM DHCP Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Trigger DHCP requests - access VM console:

  * View log: ``nova console-log <vm>``
  * Access using VNC console: nova get-vnc-console <vm> novnc
  * Trigger DHCP requests:
    ``sudo ifdown eth0 ; sudo ifup eth0``

    .. code-block:: bash

       udhcpc (v1.20.1) started
       Sending discover...
       Sending select for 10.0.123.3...
       Lease of 10.0.123.3 obtained, lease time 86400 # This only happens when DHCP is properly obtained.

* Check if the DHCP requests are reaching the qdhcp agent using the following commands on the OpenStack controller:

  .. code-block:: bash

     sudo ip netns
     sudo ip netns exec qdhcp-xxxxx ifconfig # xxxx is the neutron network id
     sudo ip netns exec qdhcp-xxxxx tcpdump -nei tapxxxxx # xxxxx is the neutron port id

     # Valid request and response:
     15:08:41.684932 fa:16:3e:02:14:bb > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 329: 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from fa:16:3e:02:14:bb, length 287
     15:08:41.685152 fa:16:3e:79:07:98 > fa:16:3e:02:14:bb, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 354: 10.0.123.2.67 > 10.0.123.3.68: BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 312

* If the requests aren't reaching qdhcp:

  * Verify VXLAN tunnels exist between compute and control nodes by using ``ovs-vsctl show``
  * | Run the following commands to debug the OVS processing of the DHCP request packet:
    | ``ovs-ofctl -OOpenFlow13 dump-ports-desc br-int`` # retrieve VMs ofport and MAC
    | ``ovs-appctl ofproto/trace br-int in_port=<ofport>,dl_src=<mac>,dl_dst=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff,udp,ip_src=0.0.0.0,ip_dst=255.255.255.255 | grep "Rule\|action"``

    * If the VM isn't on the same node as the qdhcp namepsace:

      * Check if the packet is arriving via VXLAN by running ``tcpdump -nei <vxlan_port> port 4789``
      * If it is arriving via VXLAN, the packet can be tracked on the compute node rules, using ``ofproto/trace``
        in a similiar manner to the previous section. Note that packets arriving from a tunnels have a unique
        tunnel_id (VNI) that should be used as well in the trace, due to the special processing of packets arriving
        from a VXLAN tunnel.

Floating IP Issues
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
*  If you have assigned an external network and associated a floating IP to a VM but there is still no connectivity:

   * Verify the external gateway IP is reachable through the provided provider network port.
   * Verify OpenDaylight has successfully resolved the MAC address of the external gateway IP.
     This can be verified by searching for the line "Installing ext-net group" in the karaf.log.
   * Locate the compute the VM is residing on (can use ``nova show <vm>``).
   * Run a ping to the VM floating IP.
   * If the ping fails, execute a flow dump of br-int, and search for the flows that are relevant to the VM's floating IP address:
     ``ovs-ofctl -OOpenFlow13 dump-flows br-int | grep "<floating_ip>"``

     * | Are there packets on the incoming flow (matching dst_ip=<floating_ip>)?
       | If not this probably means the provider network has not been set up properly, verify provider_mappings configuration and the configured external network physical_network value match. Also verify that the Flat/VLAN network configured is actually reachable via the configured port.
     * | Are there packets on the outgoing flow (matching src_ip=<floating_ip>)?
       | If not, this probably means that OpenDaylight is failing to resolve the MAC of the provided external gateway, required for forwarding packets to the external network.
     * | Are there packets being sent on the external network port?
       | This can be checked using ``tcpdump <port>`` or by viewing the appropriate OpenFlow rules. The mapping between the OpenFlow port number and the linux interface can be acquired using ``ovs-ofctl dump-ports-desc br-int``

       .. code-block:: bash
