Learning OpenStack Networking - Third Edition

Local IP

The local_ip configuration option specifies the local IP address on the node that will be used to build the overlay network between hosts. Refer to Chapter 1, Introduction to OpenStack Networking, for ideas on how the overlay network should be architected. In this installation, all guest traffic through overlay networks will traverse a dedicated network over the eth1 interface configured earlier in this chapter.

Update the local_ip configuration option in the [vxlan] section of the ML2 configuration file accordingly on the controller01 and compute01 hosts:

[vxlan]...local_ip = 10.20.0.X

The following table provides the interfaces and addresses to be configured on each host. Substitute for X where appropriate:

Hostname
