Doc Text:	You can now use the Octavia API to create a VIP access control list (ACL) to limit incoming traffic to a listener to a set of allowed source IP addresses (CIDRs). Any other incoming traffic is rejected. For more information, see "Secure a load balancer with an access control list" in the "Networking Guide."

Description Carlos Goncalves 2019-03-20 16:37:35 UTC

When creating a listener for an octavia loadbalancer, for example opening port 80, it opens that port for accessing from everywhere by creating a security group that allows that traffic from 0.0.0.0/0.

However, it may be needed to just enable access to that port from a given subnet or from pods with a given security group, similarly how it is done with VMs. Currently it is not possible to do so, as the security group generated for the listener/loadbalancer does not belong to the tenant that created the loadbalancer but to the admin.

This RFE requests extending the API to allow setting a list of CIDRs and/or remote_group_ids per listener.

Comment 2 Toni Freger 2019-04-15 05:35:41 UTC

Hi Carlos,

Is it possible to add a scenario tempest test during development cycle of this feature?
It will helps us a lot since amount of qe work during OSP16 cycle is huge.

Comment 3 Carlos Goncalves 2019-04-15 16:49:31 UTC

I cannot commit to having a tempest scenario it time for GA as work to implement this feature hasn't started yet. We'll do our best. Tests from kuryr/ShiftOnStack could also validate this work as this originally came as a request from their side.

Comment 9 Carlos Goncalves 2019-09-14 10:14:46 UTC

RFE patches merged upstream for Train.

Comment 17 Bruna Bonguardo 2019-12-09 15:12:19 UTC

Verification steps:
1. Create a load balancer with listener and members.
2. Assert traffic can be reached between user and members.
3. Update listener with --allowed-cidr 99.99.99.99/24. Verify user cannot reach to members.
4. Update listener with --allowed-cidr <CIDR_THAT_INCLUDES_USER_CIDR>. Verify user can reach to members.
