Description

Fnux

Monitoring services is a pain at the moment: either I have to configure prometheus by hand to monitor a service, or I have to make a hole for the node's specific IP so that it joins the consul cluster.
Could we have some kind of internal "monitoring LAN" that we attach to the VM in ONE? This subnet could be wired to be able to access the consul cluster.

Nico

ok. Proceed as follows:
delegate a new /64 from 2a0a:e5c0:2::/48 in netbox
Create an opennebula network for it, cluster = place6, ciara (all clusters that are in place6)
Don't configure a gateway - we keep this as an add-on network
Reconfigure the firewall to allow accessing consul from this network
(all in a redmine ticket, cc llnu kjg)

  • We create a vxlan device
  • We create a bridge containing the vxlan device
  • And we are happy

Allocated 2a0a:e5c0:2:b::/64 (https://netbox.ungleich.ch/ipam/prefixes/208/). This netbox thing is very convenient.

Seems we need a global ip on the vlan interface

Actions #6

Updated by Nico Schottelius almost 4 years ago

Adding vxlan 33 to apu-routers:

# For vxlans
auto eth1.33
iface eth1.33 inet static
  address 2a0a:e5c0:2:c::IPSUFFIX/64
  netmask 64
  post-up /sbin/ip link set $IFACE mtu 9000

Firewall rule:

        # no traffic is supposed to get into the vxlan network
        ip6 daddr $vxlan_network drop

Actions #7

Up and running! It still need:

  • Documentation.
  • Testing/checking on cdist-backed vlan creation on ONe workers.
Actions #8

Updated by Timothée Floure about 3 years ago

  • Status changed from In Progress to Waiting
  • Assignee deleted (Timothée Floure)

This thing is nice in theory but painful in practice: they are too many moving parts. I'm pretty sure we can design simpler service discovery if needed.
