IETF 102 Hackathon
From Yuma123 Wiki
Alternative southbound interface to flow enabled network bridges
This is a new project originally defined in the following post on hackathon@ietf.org https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/hackathon/vb27RmJivbwy8UURV_KXh2IzZd0
The project consists of 3 tasks:
- Design and publish draft with YANG model of a flow enabled network bridge.
- Device (server) side model implementation - loadable module for some of the available opensource NETCONF servers implementing the model for a OpenFlow device as a proxy controller with a single node.
- Controller (client) side plug-in implementation - ncflowplugin for
ODL interacting with NETCONF mounted nodes implementing the YANG model that ideally can coexist with openflowplugin.
Progress:
Design and publish draft with YANG model of a flow enabled network bridge.
Done. - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-vassilev-netmod-network-bridge/
Device (server) side model implementation
Partial. Can be mounted from ODL but the OpenFlow part is not ready. - https://github.com/vlvassilev/yuma123/tree/master/example-modules/ietf-network-bridge
Controller (client) side plug-in implementation - ncflowplugin for ODL
Incomplete.
Walkthrough (tested on Debian)
Build and start netconfd server instance with the ietf-network-bridge* modules loaded listening on port 830:
cd
sudo apt-get install git autoconf gcc libtool libxml2-dev libssh2-1-dev make libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev libreadline-dev
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/yuma123/git yuma123-git
cd yuma123-git
autoreconf -i -f
./configure CFLAGS='-g -O0' CXXFLAGS='-g -O0' --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
#Enable the netconf subsystem and restart sshd
echo "Port 830" | sudo tee -a /etc/ssh/sshd_config
echo "Subsystem netconf "/usr/sbin/netconf-subsystem" | sudo tee -a /etc/ssh/sshd_config
sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
