Install INDIGO-DC Virtual Router.

Install INDIGO-DC Virtual Router [1]. The INDIGO-DC Virtual Router does not carry its own code. It consists of open components and all automation is contained in Ansible roles.

The purpose of the INDIGO-DC Virtual Router is establishing an overlay virtual private network to interconnect nodes in a cloud platofrm deployment even if deployed in multiple, geographically distant sites.

Getting Started

The roles are intended for automated deployment through the Infrastructure Manager [2]. They can be deployed manually with Ansible if required. Follow to section Example Playbook for that.

Role Variables

Description of all the variables that can be passed to this role is along their default values in defaults/main.yml.

Example Playbook

This an example of how to install the application:

In the "vrouter" node:

  roles:
  - role: indigo-dc.indigovr
    INDIGOVR_NODE_TYPE: vrouter
    INDIGOVR_CENTRALPOINT_IP: 'centralpoint_ip'

In the "standalone" node:

  roles:
  - role: indigo-dc.indigovr
    INDIGOVR_NODE_TYPE: standalone
    INDIGOVR_CENTRALPOINT_IP: 'centralpoint_ip'

In the "centralpoint" node:

  roles:
  - role: indigo-dc.indigovr
    INDIGOVR_NODE_TYPE: 'centralpoint'
