This section is not necessarily for understanding -basic Contiv/VPP operation, but is very useful for debugging purposes. - -Contiv/VPP currently uses a single VRF to forward the traffic between PODs on a node, -PODs on different nodes, host network stack, and DPDK-managed dataplane interface. The forwarding -between each of them is purely L3-based, even for cases of communication -between 2 PODs within the same node. - -#### DPDK-Managed Data Interface -In order to allow inter-node communication between PODs on different -nodes and between PODs and outside world, Contiv/VPP uses data-plane interfaces -bound to VPP using DPDK. Each node should have one "main" VPP interface, -which is unbound from the host network stack and bound to VPP. -The Contiv/VPP control plane automatically configures the interface either -via DHCP, or with a statically assigned address (see `NodeInterconnectCIDR` and -`NodeInterconnectDHCP` yaml settings). - -#### PODs on the Same Node -PODs are connected to VPP using virtio-based TAP interfaces created by VPP, -with the POD-end of the interface placed into the POD container network namespace. -Each POD is assigned an IP address from the `PodSubnetCIDR`. The allocated IP -is configured with the prefix length `/32`. Additionally, a static route pointing -towards the VPP is configured in the POD network namespace. -The prefix length `/32` means that all IP traffic will be forwarded to the -default route - VPP. To get rid of unnecessary broadcasts between POD and VPP, -a static ARP entry is configured for the gateway IP in the POD namespace, as well -as for POD IP on VPP. Both ends of the TAP interface have a static (non-default) -MAC address applied. - -#### PODs with hostNetwork=true -PODs with a `hostNetwork=true` attribute are not placed into a separate network namespace, they instead use the main host Linux network namespace; therefore, they are not directly connected to the VPP. They rely on the interconnection between the VPP and the host Linux network stack, -which is described in the next paragraph. Note, when these PODs access some service IP, their network communication will be NATed in Linux (by iptables rules programmed by kube-proxy) -as opposed to VPP, which is the case for the PODs connected to VPP directly. - -#### Linux Host Network Stack -In order to interconnect the Linux host network stack with VPP (to allow access -to the cluster resources from the host itself, as well as for the PODs with `hostNetwork=true`), -VPP creates a TAP interface between VPP and the main network namespace. The TAP interface is configured with IP addresses from the `VPPHostSubnetCIDR` range, with `.1` in the latest octet on the VPP side, and `.2` on the host side. The name of the host interface is `vpp1`. The host has static routes pointing to VPP configured with: -- A route to the whole `PodSubnetCIDR` to route traffic targeting PODs towards VPP. -- A route to `ServiceCIDR` (default `10.96.0.0/12`), to route service IP targeted traffic that has not been translated by kube-proxy for some reason towards VPP. -- The host also has a static ARP entry configured for the IP of the VPP-end TAP interface, to get rid of unnecessary broadcasts between the main network namespace and VPP. - -#### VXLANs to Other Nodes -In order to provide inter-node POD to POD connectivity via any underlay network -(not necessarily an L2 network), Contiv/VPP sets up a VXLAN tunnel overlay between -each 2 nodes within the cluster (full mesh). - -All VXLAN tunnels are terminated in one bridge domain on each VPP. The bridge domain -has learning and flooding disabled, the l2fib of the bridge domain contains a static entry for each VXLAN tunnel. Each bridge domain has a BVI interface, which -interconnects the bridge domain with the main VRF (L3 forwarding). This interface needs -a unique IP address, which is assigned from the `VxlanCIDR` as describe above. - -The main VRF contains several static routes that point to the BVI IP addresses of other nodes. -For each node, it is a route to PODSubnet and VppHostSubnet of the remote node, as well as a route -to the management IP address of the remote node. For each of these routes, the next hop IP is the -BVI interface IP of the remote node, which goes via the BVI interface of the local node. - -The VXLAN tunnels and the static routes pointing to them are added/deleted on each VPP, -whenever a node is added/deleted in the k8s cluster. - - -#### More Info -Please refer to the \[Packet Flow Dev Guide\](../dev-guide/PACKET_FLOW.html) for more -detailed description of paths traversed by request and response packets -inside Contiv/VPP Kubernetes cluster under different situations.

This section is not +necessarily for understanding basic Contiv/VPP operation, but is very +useful for debugging purposes. + +Contiv/VPP currently uses a single VRF to forward the traffic between +PODs on a node, PODs on different nodes, host network stack, and +DPDK-managed dataplane interface. The forwarding between each of them is +purely L3-based, even for cases of communication between 2 PODs within +the same node. + +DPDK-Managed Data Interface +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +In order to allow inter-node communication between PODs on different +nodes and between PODs and outside world, Contiv/VPP uses data-plane +interfaces bound to VPP using DPDK. Each node should have one “main” VPP +interface, which is unbound from the host network stack and bound to +VPP. The Contiv/VPP control plane automatically configures the interface +either via DHCP, or with a statically assigned address (see +``NodeInterconnectCIDR`` and ``NodeInterconnectDHCP`` yaml settings). + +PODs on the Same Node +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +PODs are connected to VPP using virtio-based TAP interfaces created by +VPP, with the POD-end of the interface placed into the POD container +network namespace. Each POD is assigned an IP address from the +``PodSubnetCIDR``. The allocated IP is configured with the prefix length +``/32``. Additionally, a static route pointing towards the VPP is +configured in the POD network namespace. The prefix length ``/32`` means +that all IP traffic will be forwarded to the default route - VPP. To get +rid of unnecessary broadcasts between POD and VPP, a static ARP entry is +configured for the gateway IP in the POD namespace, as well as for POD +IP on VPP. Both ends of the TAP interface have a static (non-default) +MAC address applied. + +PODs with hostNetwork=true +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +PODs with a ``hostNetwork=true`` attribute are not placed into a +separate network namespace, they instead use the main host Linux network +namespace; therefore, they are not directly connected to the VPP. They +rely on the interconnection between the VPP and the host Linux network +stack, which is described in the next paragraph. Note, when these PODs +access some service IP, their network communication will be NATed in +Linux (by iptables rules programmed by kube-proxy) as opposed to VPP, +which is the case for the PODs connected to VPP directly. + +Linux Host Network Stack +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +In order to interconnect the Linux host network stack with VPP (to allow +access to the cluster resources from the host itself, as well as for the +PODs with ``hostNetwork=true``), VPP creates a TAP interface between VPP +and the main network namespace. The TAP interface is configured with IP +addresses from the ``VPPHostSubnetCIDR`` range, with ``.1`` in the +latest octet on the VPP side, and ``.2`` on the host side. The name of +the host interface is ``vpp1``. The host has static routes pointing to +VPP configured with: - A route to the whole ``PodSubnetCIDR`` to route +traffic targeting PODs towards VPP. - A route to ``ServiceCIDR`` +(default ``10.96.0.0/12``), to route service IP targeted traffic that +has not been translated by kube-proxy for some reason towards VPP. - The +host also has a static ARP entry configured for the IP of the VPP-end +TAP interface, to get rid of unnecessary broadcasts between the main +network namespace and VPP. + +VXLANs to Other Nodes +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +In order to provide inter-node POD to POD connectivity via any underlay +network (not necessarily an L2 network), Contiv/VPP sets up a VXLAN +tunnel overlay between each 2 nodes within the cluster (full mesh). + +All VXLAN tunnels are terminated in one bridge domain on each VPP. The +bridge domain has learning and flooding disabled, the l2fib of the +bridge domain contains a static entry for each VXLAN tunnel. Each bridge +domain has a BVI interface, which interconnects the bridge domain with +the main VRF (L3 forwarding). This interface needs a unique IP address, +which is assigned from the ``VxlanCIDR`` as describe above. + +The main VRF contains several static routes that point to the BVI IP +addresses of other nodes. For each node, it is a route to PODSubnet and +VppHostSubnet of the remote node, as well as a route to the management +IP address of the remote node. For each of these routes, the next hop IP +is the BVI interface IP of the remote node, which goes via the BVI +interface of the local node. + +The VXLAN tunnels and the static routes pointing to them are +added/deleted on each VPP, whenever a node is added/deleted in the k8s +cluster. + +More Info +~~~~~~~~~ + +Please refer to the [Packet Flow Dev +Guide](../dev-guide/PACKET_FLOW.html) for more detailed description of +paths traversed by request and response packets inside Contiv/VPP +Kubernetes cluster under different situations. diff --git a/docs/usecases/contiv/Prometheus.md b/docs/usecases/contiv/Prometheus.md deleted file mode 100644 index ba61be3c739..00000000000 --- a/docs/usecases/contiv/Prometheus.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,159 +0,0 @@ -# Prometheus Statistics - -Each contiv-agent exposes statistics in Prometheus format at port `9999` by default. -Exposed data is split into two groups: -- `/stats` provides statistics for VPP interfaces managed by contiv-agent - Prometheus data is a set of counters with labels.
