[Failed] Add a scope global ip into instance

Asked by Hugo Kou

Hi all

We're build several private cloud in our lab to implement Fault Zone and Web-Services HA+LB

There're two NOVA deployments, and run up software LoadBalancer (pound) + heartbeat(keepalived) on each deployment.

It's ok with keepalived part. Two LB instance can detect each other . The problem is pound. While pound startup , it establish a virtual IP for master LB. Attach to instance's eth0. As below , 192.168.1.102 is instance original ip. 192.168.1.55 is for keepalived and pound to be a virtual ip. But this Virtual seems not work in instance. Other client in same network segment can not find out 192.168.1.55.
Is this the limitation of VM ?
How could I realize this virtual IP?
I think this issue is on Hypervisor layer.......

======================================
 eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether 02:16:3e:0c:e9:94 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 192.168.1.102/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global eth0
    inet 192.168.1.55/32 scope global eth0
    inet6 fe80::16:3eff:fe0c:e994/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
======================================

Any suggestion will help :>

Cheers

Instances cannot spoof other ip addresses. If you want to allow them to you have to disable some firewall rules.

In nova/virt/libvirt/firewall.py there is a method called _ensure_static_filters. You will see one called nova-base and one called nova-vpn. The base filter stops arp, mac, and ip spoofing. nova-vpn allows all of that traffic. You can see that the image defined as FLAGS.vpn_image_id uses nova-vpn instead of nova-base. So you can
a) use nova-vpn for all instances
b) set FLAGS.vpn_image_id to make it work for one image
c) write some new code to allow certain images/instances to have spoofing protection turned off

Hello Vish

Thanks for ur reply , it's the answer what I need .

And in my research ...............

I found a wiki about Atlas-LB , Is this works in current NOVA?
http://wiki.openstack.org/Atlas-LB

As I know , both Rackspace and AWS , or even IBM cloud ....
They provide a service named "Shared IP" / "Cloud Server Virtual IP"

This Virtual IP could be used for heartbeat.......I'm interesting about how's the approach of those public providers to provision Virtual IP.

Thanks

Hugo Kuo

After a test, Rewrite firewall.py it's work now....

Actually , these two NOVA deployments only for our web-service etc.. So it's much more free than a public cloud.
But it's not a recommend way for every time....
I'll keep l working on Atlas-LB ....... To implement " Virtual IPs " as RackSpace.

    210 if self.static_filters_configured:
    211 return

Oh, Sorry . don't delete line 217...... a typo
Sorry.......

I hope this will help for someone.
