ASF subversion and git services commented on CLOUDSTACK-6823: ------------------------------------------------------------- Commit 628d8e66f77053de9819436739325720710175ed in cloudstack's branch refs/heads/master from [~rsabharw] [ https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;h=628d8e6 ] CLOUDSTACK-6823 : First code drop for Brocade Network plugin to orchestrate Brocade VDX switches for L2 connectivity Signed-off-by: Hugo Trippaers <htrippa...@schubergphilis.com> > Brocade Network plugin to orchestrate Brocade VDX switches > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-6823 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-6823 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: New Feature > Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the > default.) > Components: Network Controller > Affects Versions: 4.4.0 > Environment: • CloudStack supported KVM Hypervisor, VMWare, > XenServer > • Brocade VDX switches running Network Operating System 5.0 or above. The > following models are supported: > o VDX 8770, VDX 8770-8, VDX 8770-4, VDX 6740 and VDX 6740T > Reporter: Ritu Sabharwal > Assignee: Ritu Sabharwal > Labels: Brocade > Fix For: 4.5.0 > > > This plugin is focused on providing L2 services initially with other services > coming in later. This feature is about a CloudStack network-guru plugin to > automatically orchestrate Brocade’s switches to provide tenant isolation via > VLAN. When isolated networks are created from CloudStack and allocated VLAN, > a port profile is created on the switch for the network with the VLAN profile > for the allocated VLAN which defines the VLAN membership for the overall port > profile. When a VM is created and attached to the network, the VMs MAC > address is associated with the port profile of the network. The port profile > is applied to the switch when the MAC address is learned. When the VM is > deleted, the VMs MAC address is disassociated from the port profile of the > network. When an isolated Network is deleted, the port-profile for the > network is deleted from the switches. The plugin also implements the > capability to monitor the availability of the switch when it is configured > first time. If there are no isolated Networks using the physical switch, the > monitoring capability is disabled for the switch. > The Brocade Network Plugin orchestrates Brocade’s switches using REST APIs. > The plugin uses pre-configured properties file to provide the details of > Brocade switches (IP Address, UserName, Password). In order to find out which > switches are connected to the hypervisor hosts, the plugin uses the > properties file to specify the pod to switch mapping. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
