Re: ACS 4.6 idea Vision

There's already been some work on OpenDaylight, and it has been merged
but I don't think many people are using it. It should be roughly
analogous to the Nuage plugin's functionality, where openvswitch on
the hypervisor talks to a controller that provides all of the traffic
flow rules. It might not be complete. A cursory look at Cloudrouter
seems to indicate that it might be OpenDaylight in a pretty package.
Perhaps it can drop in as the controller under the existing
OpenDaylight code, or the OpenDaylight code can be extended.

 Hi All,

 This is the email about why can we merge the cloudrouter.org in cloudstack
 in the new 4.6.


 I basic idea is in Advance Networking when we choose VLAN isolatation why
 do we need more router.

 Can we do something like same what Nuage Network Provides.

 In Advance Networking configuration of Guest VLAN isolation we create many
 VM it creates many routers where this should be avoided and ACS should
 come
 up with good solution on networking part than depending on creating VLAN
 on
 switch.

 With reference to below link


 https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/NuageVsp+Network+Plugin

 All the network isolation and routing is handled by the Nuage SDN
 solution.
 Routing of the packets happen at hypervisor itself. Virtual Router is not
 used for routing the packets thus the current issue of the Virtual Router
 being the bottleneck is avoided. The Virtual Router VM is used only for
 Password reset functionality. The Nuage solution also helps significantly
 improve the agility and scale of a CS deployment as compared to a Virtual
 Router based deployment

 Why CS can have the same inbuilt features than of Nuage.

 For example : We can set two routers if we need we should have options to
 create backup server to redundancy.

 Can we merge something with cloudrouter to make ACS better.


 Thanks,
 Keerthi

Re: ACS 4.6 idea Vision

2015-04-24 Thread Christian
A nice vision Keerthi. I would love to see something like this implemented
in CloudStack.

Sometimes we just want to link VMs at Layer 2. I¹m aware that there are
ways of doing this without instantiating virtual routers, but these
methods are not officially supported. CloudStack seems very much focused
on Layer 3 networking. The ability to build VPCs without assigning IP
addresses to every interface would be very useful.

Best regards,
