This document describes how to set up SEBA-in-a-Box (SiaB). SiaB is a functional SEBA pod capable of running E2E tests. It takes about 10 minutes to install on a physical server or VM.
The default configuration of SiaB incorporates an emulated OLT/ONU provided by Ponsim and an emulated AGG switch provided by Mininet. Mininet is also configured with a host that stands in as the BNG and runs a DHCP server. The Ponsim setup installs a single OLT, ONU, and RG. The RG is able to authenticate itself via 802.1x, run dhclient to get an IP address from the DHCP server in Mininet, and finally ping the BNG. This demonstrates end-to-end connectivity between the RG and BNG via the ONU, OLT, and agg switch.
This page describes how to set up SiaB with a physical switch instead of an emulated Mininet topology. An external server running DHCP services connected to the switch acts as the BNG.
A Makefile can be used to install SEBA-in-a-Box in an automated manner on an Ubuntu 16.04 system:
mkdir -p ~/cord cd ~/cord git clone https://gerrit.opencord.org/automation-tools cd automation-tools/seba-in-a-box
To build a SiaB that uses the released service versions specified in the Helm charts:
make [stable] [NUM_OLTS=n] [NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT=m] # `make` and `make stable` are the same
NOTE that
makeormake stablewill install SEBA with the container versions that are defined in the helm charts. If you want to install SEBA 2.0 please use:make siab-2.0-alpha1
You can specify the number of OLTs (up to 4) and number of ONUs per OLT (up to 4) that you want to create.
After a successful install, you will see the message:
SEBA-in-a-Box installation finished!
If the install fails for some reason, you can re-run the make command and the install will try to resume where it left off.
You can optionally install the logging and nem-monitoring charts during the installation by passing one or both of them (space delimited) via the INFRA_CHARTS variable. E.g.:
make INFRA_CHARTS='logging nem-monitoring' stable
To test basic SEBA functionality, you can run:
make run-tests
Note that the tests currently assume a single OLT/ONU, so some tests will likely fail if you have configured multiple OLTs and ONUs.
To build a SiaB that uses the latest development code:
make latest [NUM_OLTS=n] [NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT=m]
You can specify the number of OLTs (up to 4) and number of ONUs per OLT (up to 4) that you want to create.
After a successful install, you will see the message:
SEBA-in-a-Box installation finished!
If the install fails for some reason, you can re-run the make command and the install will try to resume where it left off.
To test basic SEBA functionality using the development code, you can run:
make run-tests-latest
Note that the tests currently assume a single OLT/ONU, so some tests will likely fail if you have configured multiple OLTs and ONUs.
The rest of this page describes a manual method for installing SEBA-in-a-Box. It also provides an overview of what is installed by each chart.
Before installing SiaB, you need a Kubernetes cluster (can be a single node) with the Calico CNI plugin installed. You also need Helm and a few other software packages.
The server or VM on which you are installing SEBA-in-a-Box should have at least two CPU cores, 8GB RAM, and 30GB disk space.
You need to have Kubernetes with CNI enabled. An easy way to set up a single-node Kubernetes that meets the requirements is with kubeadm. Instructions for installing kubeadm on various platforms can be found [here](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/inde pendent/install-kubeadm/&sa=D&ust=1542238113244000).
NOTE: the setup has not been made to work with minikube; we recommend installing kubeadm instead.
Here’s an example of installing kubeadm on an Ubuntu 16.04 server:
echo "Installing docker..." sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y software-properties-common sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 0EBFCD88 sudo add-apt-repository \ "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \ $(lsb_release -cs) \ stable" sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y "docker-ce=17.06*" echo "Installing kubeadm..." sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install -y ebtables ethtool apt-transport-https curl curl -s https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key add - cat <<EOF >/tmp/kubernetes.list deb http://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main EOF sudo cp /tmp/kubernetes.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list sudo apt-get update sudo apt install -y "kubeadm=1.12.7-*" "kubelet=1.12.7-*" "kubectl=1.12.7-*" sudo swapoff -a sudo kubeadm init --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16 mkdir -p $HOME/.kube sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config
If running on a single node, taint the master node so that we can schedule pods on it:
kubectl taint nodes --all node-role.kubernetes.io/master-
Install the Calico CNI plugin in Kubernetes:
kubectl apply -f \ https://docs.projectcalico.org/v3.3/getting-started/kubernetes/installation/hosted/rbac-kdd.yaml kubectl apply -f \ https://docs.projectcalico.org/v3.3/getting-started/kubernetes/installation/hosted/kubernetes-datastore/calico-networking/1.7/calico.yaml
An example of installing Helm:
echo "Installing helm..." curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/helm/master/scripts/get > install-helm.sh bash install-helm.sh -v v2.12.1 kubectl create serviceaccount --namespace kube-system tiller kubectl create clusterrolebinding tiller-cluster-rule --clusterrole=cluster-admin --serviceaccount=kube-system:tiller helm init --service-account tiller helm repo add incubator https://kubernetes-charts-incubator.storage.googleapis.com/
Install the cordctl command line tool:
export CORDCTL_VERSION=1.1.2 export CORDCTL_PLATFORM=linux-amd64 curl -L -o /tmp/cordctl "https://github.com/opencord/cordctl/releases/download/$CORDCTL_VERSION/cordctl-$CORDCTL_PLATFORM" sudo mv /tmp/cordctl /usr/local/bin/cordctl sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/cordctl mkdir -p ~/.cord printf "server: localhost:30011\nusername: admin@opencord.org\npassword: letmein\ngrpc:\n timeout: 10s\n" > ~/.cord/config
Install the http and jq commands. Run: sudo apt install -y httpie jq
Before we can start installing SEBA components, we need to get the charts.
mkdir -p cord cd cord git clone https://gerrit.opencord.org/helm-charts
Run these commands:
cd ~/cord/helm-charts helm repo add incubator http://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-charts-incubator helm install -n cord-kafka --version=0.13.3 -f examples/kafka-single.yaml incubator/kafka # Wait for Kafka to come up kubectl wait pod/cord-kafka-0 --for condition=Ready --timeout=180s helm install -n onos onos
You should see the following pods running:
$ kubectl get pod NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE cord-kafka-0 1/1 Running 1 14h cord-kafka-zookeeper-0 1/1 Running 0 14h onos-558445d9bc-c2cd5 2/2 Running 0 14h
Run these commands to install VOLTHA:
cd ~/cord/helm-charts # Install the etcd-operator helm chart: helm install -n etcd-operator stable/etcd-operator --version 0.8.3 # Allow etcd-operator enough time to create the EtdcCluster # CustomResourceDefinitions. This should only be a couple of seconds after the # etcd-operator pods are running. Check the CRD are ready by running the following: kubectl get crd | grep etcd # After EtcdCluster CRD is in place helm dep up voltha helm install -n voltha voltha --set etcd-cluster.clusterSize=1
Before proceeding
Run: kubectl get pod -l app=etcd
You should see the etcd-cluster pod up and running.
$ kubectl get pod -l app=etcd NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE etcd-cluster-jcjk2x97w6 1/1 Running 0 14h
You should see the VOLTHA pods created:
$ kubectl get pod -n voltha NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE default-http-backend-798fb4f44c-fb696 1/1 Running 0 14h freeradius-754bc76b5-22lcm 1/1 Running 0 14h netconf-66b767bddc-hbsgr 1/1 Running 0 14h nginx-ingress-controller-5fc7b87c86-bd55x 1/1 Running 0 14h ofagent-556cd6c978-lknd4 1/1 Running 0 14h vcli-67c996f87d-vw4pk 1/1 Running 0 14h vcore-0 1/1 Running 0 14h voltha-6f8d7bf7b-4gkkj 1/1 Running 1 14h
Run these commands to install Ponsim (after installing VOLTHA):
cd ~/cord/helm-charts NUM_OLTS=1 # can be between 1 and 4 NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT=1 # can be between 1 and 4 helm install -n ponnet ponnet --set numOlts=$(NUM_OLTS) --set numOnus=$(NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT) # Wait for CNI changes ~/cord/helm-charts/scripts/wait_for_pods.sh kube-system helm install -n ponsimv2 ponsimv2 --set numOlts=$(NUM_OLTS) --set numOnus=$(NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT) # Iptables setup sudo iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
Setting numOlts and numOnus is optional; the default is 1.
Before proceeding
Run: kubectl -n voltha get pod -l app=ponsim
$ kubectl -n voltha get pod -l app=ponsim NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE olt0-f4744dc5-xdrjb 1/1 Running 0 15h onu0-0-6bf67bf6c6-76gn7 1/1 Running 0 15h rg0-0-7b9d5cdb5c-jc8p5 1/1 Running 0 14h
Make sure that all of the pods in the voltha namespace are in Running state. If you see the olt0 pod in CrashLoopBackOff state, try deleting (helm delete --purge) and reinstalling the ponsimv2 chart.
If you install more than one OLT/ONU then you will see more containers above. The naming convention:
1st OLT - olt0-xxx 2nd OLT - olt1-xxx 1st ONU attached to 1st OLT - onu0-0-xx (onu<olt>-<onu>) 2nd ONU attached to 1st OLT - onu0-1-xx 1st ONU attached to 2nd OLT - onu1-0-xx 2nd ONU attached to 2nd OLT - onu1-1-xx RG follows the same naming logic as ONU (rg0-0-xx, rg0-1-xx, rg1-0-xx, rg1-1-xx) Linux bridges interconnecting ONU and RG follow the same naming logic as ONU (pon0.0, pon0.1 ...) Linux bridges interconnecting OLT and Mininet follow same naming logic as OLT (nni0, nni1, ...)
Run http GET http://127.0.0.1:30125/health|jq '.state'. It should return "HEALTHY":
$ http GET http://127.0.0.1:30125/health|jq '.state' "HEALTHY"
Run these commands:
cd ~/cord/helm-charts helm dep update xos-core helm install -n xos-core xos-core helm dep update xos-profiles/seba-services helm install -n seba-services xos-profiles/seba-services helm dep update workflows/att-workflow helm install -n att-workflow workflows/att-workflow -f configs/seba-ponsim.yaml helm dep update xos-profiles/base-kubernetes helm install -n base-kubernetes xos-profiles/base-kubernetes
Before proceeding
Run: kubectl get pod
You should see all the NEM pods in Running state, except a number of *-tosca-loader pods which should eventually be in Completed state. To wait until this occurs you can run:
~/cord/helm-charts/scripts/wait_for_pods.sh
Run these commands:
helm install -n ponsim-pod xos-profiles/ponsim-pod --set numOlts=$(NUM_OLTS) --set numOnus=$(NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT) ~/cord/helm-charts/scripts/wait_for_pods.sh
The TOSCA creates a subscriber for each RG rg<olt>-<onu> with S-tag of 222+<olt> and C-tag of 111+<onu>.
Before proceeding
Log into the XOS GUI at http://<hostname>:30001 (credentials: admin@opencord.org / letmein). You should see an AttWorkflowDriver Service Instance with authentication state AWAITING. To check this from the command line:
cordctl model list AttWorkflowDriverServiceInstance -f "authentication_state=AWAITING"
This will show only the AttWorkflowDriver Service Instances in AWAITING state. Wait until you see a line for each ONU:
$ cordctl model list AttWorkflowDriverServiceInstance -f "authentication_state=AWAITING" ID NAME OF_DPID OWNER_ID SERIAL_NUMBER STATUS_MESSAGE UNI_PORT_ID 56 of:0000d0d3e158fede 2 PSMO00000000 ONU has been validated - Awaiting Authentication 128
Ensure that the openvswitch kernel module is loaded:
sudo modprobe openvswitch
Wait for the ofdpa-ovs switch driver setting to be sync'ed to ONOS:
cordctl model sync Switch -f 'driver=ofdpa-ovs'
Next install the Mininet chart:
cd ~/cord/helm-charts helm install -n mininet mininet --set numOlts=$(NUM_OLTS) --set numOnus=$(NUM_ONUS_PER_OLT) ~/cord/helm-charts/scripts/wait_for_pods.sh
After the Mininet pod is running, you can get to the mininet> prompt using:
kubectl attach -ti deployment.apps/mininet
To detach press Ctrl-P Ctrl-Q.
Before proceeding
Run: brctl show
You should see two interfaces on the ponX.Y and nniX Linux bridges.
$ brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces docker0 8000.02429d07b4e2 no pon0.0 8000.bec4912b1f6a no veth25c1f40b veth2a4c914f nni0 8000.0a580a170001 no veth3cc603fe vethb6820963
You will see more bridges if you've configured multiple OLTs and ONUs. All of the nniX Linux bridges connect to the agg switch in Mininet on different ports.
This is necessary to enable the RG to authenticate:
echo 8 > /tmp/group_fwd_mask for BRIDGE in /sys/class/net/pon*; do sudo cp /tmp/group_fwd_mask $BRIDGE/bridge/group_fwd_mask; done
It’s necessary to install some custom configuration to ONOS directly. Run this command:
http -a karaf:karaf POST \ http://127.0.0.1:30120/onos/v1/configuration/org.opencord.olt.impl.Olt defaultVlan=65535
The above command instructs the ONU to exchange untagged packets with the RG, rather than packets tagged with VLAN 0.
At this point the system should be fully installed and functional.
Enter the RG pod in the voltha namespace:
RG_POD=$( kubectl -n voltha get pod | grep rg0-0 | awk '{print $1}' ) kubectl -n voltha exec -ti $RG_POD bash
If you built SiaB with multiple OLTs and ONUs, you can choose any RG to authenticate. Inside the pod, run this command:
wpa_supplicant -i eth0 -Dwired -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
You should see output like the following:
$ wpa_supplicant -i eth0 -Dwired -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant eth0: Associated with 01:80:c2:00:00:03 WMM AC: Missing IEs eth0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-STARTED EAP authentication started eth0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=4 eth0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-METHOD EAP vendor 0 method 4 (MD5) selected eth0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-SUCCESS EAP authentication completed successfully
Hit Ctrl-C after this point to get back to the shell prompt.
Before proceeding
In the XOS GUI, the AttDriverWorkflow Service Instance should now be in APPROVED state. You can check for this on the command line by running:
cordctl model list AttWorkflowDriverServiceInstance -f "authentication_state=APPROVED"
It should return output like this:
$ cordctl model list AttWorkflowDriverServiceInstance -f "authentication_state=APPROVED" ID NAME OF_DPID OWNER_ID SERIAL_NUMBER STATUS_MESSAGE UNI_PORT_ID 56 of:0000d0d3e158fede 2 PSMO00000000 ONU has been validated - Authentication succeeded 128
The FabricCrossconnect Service Instance should have a check in the Backend status column in the GUI. You can check for this on the command line by running:
cordctl model list FabricCrossconnectServiceInstance -f 'backend_status=OK'
Wait until it returns output like this:
$ cordctl model list FabricCrossconnectServiceInstance -f 'backend_status=OK' ID NAME OWNER_ID S_TAG SOURCE_PORT SWITCH_DATAPATH_ID 59 4 222 2 of:0000000000000001
On the host, remove the dhclient profile from apparmor if present:
sudo apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/sbin.dhclient || true
Next run the following commands inside the RG pod.
ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 dhclient
You should see output like the following:
$ dhclient mv: cannot move '/etc/resolv.conf.dhclient-new.46' to '/etc/resolv.conf': Device or resource busy
You can ignore the Device or resource busy errors. The issue is that /etc/resolv.conf is mounted into the RG container by Kubernetes and dhclient wants to overwrite it.
Before proceeding
rg<olt>-<onu> will get an IP address on subnet 172.18+<olt>.<onu>.0/24. Make sure that eth0 inside the RG container has an IP address on the proper subnet:
$ ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 0a:58:0a:16:00:06 inet addr:172.18.0.54 Bcast:172.18.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:600 errors:0 dropped:559 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:15 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:57517 (57.5 KB) TX bytes:3042 (3.0 KB)
rg<olt>-<onu> pings 172.18+<olt>.<onu>.10 as its BNG.
$ ping -c 3 172.18.0.10 PING 172.18.0.10 (172.18.0.10) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 172.18.0.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=34.9 ms 64 bytes from 172.18.0.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=39.6 ms 64 bytes from 172.18.0.10: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=37.4 ms --- 172.18.0.10 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 34.940/37.343/39.615/1.917 ms
That’s it. Currently it’s not possible to send traffic to destinations on the Internet.
After a reboot of a server running SiaB, some services (such as etcd) will likely come up in a broken state. The easiest thing to do in this situation is to teardown SiaB using make reset-kubeadm and then rebuild it.
If you're done with your testing, or want to change the version you are installing, the easiest way to remove a SiaB installation is to use the make reset-kubeadm target.
