A convenience script is provided that will install M-CORD on a single node, suitable for evaluation or testing. Requirements:
sudo apt update; sudo apt -y upgradesudo capabilityIf you do not have a target server available that meets the above requirements, you can borrow one on CloudLab. Sign up for an account using your organization's email address and choose "Join Existing Project"; for "Project Name" enter cord-testdrive.
NOTE: CloudLab is supporting CORD as a courtesy. It is expected that you will not use CloudLab resources for purposes other than evaluating CORD. If, after a week or two, you wish to continue using CloudLab to experiment with or develop CORD, then you must apply for your own separate CloudLab project.
Once your account is approved, start an experiment using the OnePC-Ubuntu16.04-HWE profile on the Wisconsin cluster. This will provide you with a temporary target server meeting the above requirements.
Refer to the CloudLab documentation for more information.
This script takes about an hour to complete. If you run it, you can skip directly to Validating the Installation below.
mkdir ~/cord cd ~/cord git clone https://gerrit.opencord.org/automation-tools automation-tools/mcord/mcord-in-a-box.sh
M-CORD requires OpenStack to run VNFs. The OpenStack installation must be customized with the onos_ml2 Neutron plugin.
Bring up the M-CORD controller by installing the following charts in order:
Before creating any VMs, check to see that VTN has initialized the nodes correctly. On the OpenStack Helm master node run:
# password: rocks ssh -p 8101 onos@onos-cord-ssh.default.svc.cluster.local cordvtn-nodes
You should see all nodes in COMPLETE state.
Next, check that the VNF images are loaded into OpenStack (they are quite large so this may take a while to complete):
export OS_CLOUD=openstack_helm openstack image list
You should see output like the following:

To create a virtual EPC, on the master node run:
sudo apt install httpie http -a admin@opencord.org:letmein POST http://xos-gui.default.svc.cluster.local:4000/xosapi/v1/vepc/vepcserviceinstances blueprint=mcord_5 site_id=1
Check that the networks are created:
export OS_CLOUD=openstack_helm openstack network list
You should see output like the following:

Check that the VMs are created (it will take a few minutes for them to come up):
export OS_CLOUD=openstack_helm openstack server list --all-projects
