VTN development notes

Public Address ServiceInstances

Hardcoded dependencies to VRouterTenant have been eliminated. It's now assumed that any ServiceInstance that has public_ip and public_mac fields provides the addressing functionality that VRouterTenant used to provide.

Determining Additional Address Pairs

The VTN synchronizer will compute additional addresses attached to a port based on the following criteria:

  1. If an instance has an vm_vrouter_tag or vm_public_service_instance tag attached to it, and that tag points to a ServiceInstance that has public_ip and public_mac fields, then that address pair will be added to the ports for any access networks on that instance. (TODO: replace tag with link?)

vm_vrouter_tag is deprecated in favor of the service-neutron name vm_public_service_instance.

  1. If there exists a tenant associated with an instance, and that tenant has a SerivceInstanceLink to a ServiceInstance that has public_ip and public_mac fields, then that address pair will be added to the ports for any access networks on that instance.

Determining vlan_id

A port will be given a vlan_id if there exists a vlan_id or s_tag tag associated with the instance, and that port is an access network.

s_tag is deprecated in favor of the service-neutral name vlan_id.

Determining access networks

A network is an access network (i.e. supports vlan_id and address_pairs) if it's VTN kind is in the set ["VSG", ]. (TODO: Find a better way to mark address networks)

Determining Public Gateways

The VTN synchronizer determines public gateways by examining AddressPool objects. Each AddressPool has a gateway_ip and gateway_mac field.
