This release allows you to configure the neutron_tunnel_id_ranges and neutron_vni_ranges parameters, which govern the GRE or VXLAN tunnel IDs respectively. These are to be made available for overcloud tenant networks by overcloud Neutron. As an example, you can specify:
# openstack overcloud deploy --plan overcloud --control-scale 3 --compute-scale 1 --neutron-tunnel-id-ranges "1:1111,2:2222" --neutron-vni-ranges "3:33,5:55,100:999" --neutron-tunnel-types "gre,vxlan"
If not specified, tunnel_id_ranges and neutron_vni_ranges both default to "1:1000", which may be unsuitable or restrictive for some deployment scenarios.
If deploying as shown in the example above, you can inspect and verify the relevant neutron configuration files on a controller node (post deploy), for instance:
# grep -rni 'vni_ranges\|id_ranges\|tunnel_types' /etc/neutron/*
/etc/neutron/plugin.ini:78:tunnel_id_ranges =1:1111,2:2222
/etc/neutron/plugin.ini:85:vni_ranges =3:33,5:55,100:999
/etc/neutron/plugins/openvswitch/ovs_neutron_plugin.ini:77:tunnel_types =gre,vxlan
/etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini:78:tunnel_id_ranges =1:1111,2:2222
/etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini:85:vni_ranges =3:33,5:55,100:999
You can also test by creating an overcloud network (again, post-deploy), for instance:
# source overcloudrc # from the undercloud box for example
# neutron net-create --provider:network_type "vxlan" "foo"
This will create a vxlan type network. On inspection you can verify that this received a segmentation ID from the specified vni_ranges:
# neutron net-show foo
| provider:network_type | vxlan
| provider:segmentation_id | 3
Likewise, you can verify an appropriate segmentation ID is assigned for GRE networks. |
