The current Distributed Virtual Router (DVR) implementation supports routing traffic between virtual instances and routing traffic to external networks that support the OVS plugin. For the last couple of cycles, DVR has gained momentum within the developer and user community and has matured to scale and support other deployment models. For certain workloads inclusion of bare metal servers into a cloud deployment is almost a must. Therefore, it is now time to extend the DVR routing capability to route the traffic to and from the bare metal servers managed by OpenStack Ironic.
In this talk, we will be presenting:
1. How OpenStack Ironic connects bare metal servers to the neutron networks.
2. A proposal on how DVR can be extended to enable routing of data traffic between the virtual machines that reside in VLAN or VXLAN networks in the cloud and the bare metal servers managed by Ironic that reside in a different VLAN segment.
Attendees will learn:
1. Bringing the bare metal servers into the OpenStack cloud using OpenStack Ironic2. Limitation on having the virtual instances and the bare metal servers in the same VLAN segment.
2. Routing between the virtual instances and the bare metal servers using DVR when the virtual instances and the bare metal servers reside in different VLAN segments.
