Hi Hutson,<div><br></div><div>This is functionality is now being "up-ported" from OpenNebula core to the cloud APIs. The approach will be similar to that used for VM templates. The site admins will provide a base template for the site and vlan drivers. And the user will only deal with IP ranges...</div>
<div><br></div><div>Cheers and thanks for your great feedback!</div><div><br></div><div>Ruben</div><div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Dec 3, 2011 at 2:30 AM, Hutson Betts <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:hut101@tamu.edu">hut101@tamu.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br>

OpenNebula's OCCI server.<br>
<br>
Under the current OCCI implementation, and documentation, you specify<br>
the bridge on which all vnets will be attached. This is accomplished by<br>
configuring the following option:<br>
<br>
# Configuration for OpenNebula's Virtual Networks<br>
#:bridge: NAME_OF_DEFAULT_BRIDGE<br>
<br>
This bridge is then associated with a physical network interface<br>
manually, as seen in the bridge.png.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately this configuration limits network isolation to isolation<br>
enforced by ebtables.<br>
<br>
I would like to leverage VLAN tagging to isolate virtual networks from<br>
one another across my virtual machine hosts using OCCI as seen in<br>
vlan.png.<br>
<br>
There is an example given on the "Host-managed VLANs 3.0" configuration<br>
page for managing VLAN tagging using VNET templates. In the given<br>
example, you specify the physical network interface on which the VLAN<br>
tagged virtual interface will be attached, and subsequently, the bridge<br>
on which the vnet is attached.<br>
<br>
However, there is no documentation containing instructions on how to<br>
specify a physical network interface for OCCI.<br>
<br>
How can OCCI be modified so that virtual machine created using the OCCI<br>
interface as given virtual network interfaces attached to a physical<br>
network interface?<br>
