Description Steven Hardy 2020-02-05 17:40:53 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1798637 +++

Description of problem:

Adding ipv6.dhcp-duid=ll means we get a predictable
client ID so that reservations can be made on the
DHCP server - this is useful if you want to provide
the hostname via DHCP (although a reverse DNS lookup
should also work)

Reservations are also required to ensure the controlplane
IP of the masters won't ever change post-deployment
which will be necessary if the DNS lookup approach
is taken to set the hostnames.

- What I did

Updated the NetworkManager configuration, only for the baremetal (IPI) platform, so we specify the ipv6.dhcp-duid=ll option. This enables a predictable (mac derived) client ID/DUID when deploying in an IPv6 environment.

- How to verify it

If testing with dev-scripts you can check via virsh net-dhcp-leases baremetal - on baremetal you can check the client ID in the lease for the nic connected to the controlplane network (/var/lib/NetworkManager/dhclient6*.lease)

In both cases the controlplane network must be configured for single-stack ipv6, and there are some other PRs open to enable that e2e with the default OpenShift builds. openshift-metal3/dev-scripts#871 has some more details.

- Description for the changelog

Updated the NetworkManager configuration, for the baremetal (IPI) platform to specify the ipv6.dhcp-duid=ll option. This enables a predictable (mac derived) client ID/DUID.
