OpenStack Architecture
What is Neutron?
Neutron is an OpenStack project to provide
Networking as a Service between interface
devices managed by other OpenStack
services.
Basic API Abstraction (port, subnet,
network)
Operator selects backends to implement the
core API (ML2, OpenvSwitch, Linux Bridge
etc.)
Extendable API to provide advanced services
(LBaaS, FWaaS etc.)
What is this Neutron ML2?
Modular Layer 2
Now a core
plugin since
Havana,
Icehouse and
beyond!

plugins!
ML2 Use Cases
Replaces existing monolithic plugins, eases
development of new plugins
Eliminates redundant code
Reduce development and maintenance effort
New features
Top-of-Rack switch control
Avoid tunnel flooding via L2 population
Modular Agents
Heterogeneous deployments
Specialized hypervisor nodes with distinct
network mechanisms
Integrate *aaS appliances
Roll new technologies into existing deployments

Lets play!
What you need OpenStack
Ubuntu 14.0.x VM with a NAT and a
Host-Only Adaptor 4GB RAM
recommended, minimum 2GB
Clone devstack repository
Internet access from your VM
Good to have: Try out devstack from
https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/OVSD
B:OVSDB_OpenStack_Guide
What you need - ODL
Running on your laptop or VM (4GB
RAM minimum for VM)
Setup dev environment: Java, Maven
Clone Integration repo and compile, or
get Helium SR3 binary
Eclipse Optional
Good to have: Run ODL and
feature:install odl-ovsdb-openstack to
make sure all artifacts are available in
local repository
Workshop Walkthrough
Run ODL on your laptop/VM
OpenStack VMs provided as OVAs, boot
and login as stack/stack.
cd devstack and edit local.conf so that
IP Addresses match your setup
Run devstack: ~/devstack/stack.sh
