Description
The OpenStack Networking API offers users the ability to create and manage both basic and complex network architectures that blend the virtual and physical network infrastructure.
This book kicks off by describing various components of Openstack Neutron and installing Ubuntu OpenStack based on Canonical’s process. Further on, you will use various methods to interface with Neutron to create and manage network resources. You will also get to grips with the relationship between ports, networks, and subnets through diagrams and explanations, and see how the logical components are implemented via plugins and agents.
Moving forward, you will learn how virtual switches are implemented and how to build Neutron routers. You will also configure networks, subnets, and routers to provide connectivity to instances using simple examples. At the end, you will configure and manage security groups, and will observe how these rules translate to iptables rules on the host machines.
By the end of the book, you will be able to build basic network architectures using Neutron networks and routers in no time.
What you will learn
Install the latest Liberty (2015.2) release of OpenStack using RDO in VirtualBox
Discover the basics of the Neutron API, including networks, subnets, and ports
Interact with Neutron using the CLI and Horizon dashboard
Create networks and subnets that provide connectivity to instances
Implement software routers that connect networks and provide network address translation
Secure instances using Neutron’s security group functionality
