The OpenStack Summit, November 5-8, 2013 brings together the brightest technical minds to discuss the future of cloud computing. With OpenStack software quickly gaining adoption around the world, the Summit will feature case studies, visionary keynotes, hands-on workshops and technical sessions for cloud operators and developers. Register NOW.
As far as we know, a lot of stackers are still confused by the neutron and its concept. Sometimes, it is a headache for them to choose between nova-network and neutron when they deploy OpenStack.
On Grizzly and Havana design summits, we had workshops to show stackers the basic
behaviour of neutron. In this session, we will dive into neutron so that stackers could understand what is inside the neutron. It includes:
1. Big picture of neutron components and its position in a Openstack deployment
2. Deep dive into main neutron API methods and their implementation under Linux bridge, ovs and ryu plugins
3. Neutron routers and floating IPs and its iptables rules
4. Introduction of neutron load balancer as a service, firewall as a service and VPN as a service
After this session, hope users are more confident with deploying neutron.
