Due to new install dependencies for urllib3, this charm has been converted to a binary charm so that the build dependencies are resolved at charm build, rather than charm install. Note: the 23.04 binary charm build fails due to missing support in charmcraft [1], but this should be addressed soon. [1] https://github.com/canonical/charmcraft/issues/1104 Closes-Bug: #2019540 Change-Id: I0834ddf7d63bf7f7d59a122bc07f007abffb5f3f
Overview
OVN provides open source network virtualization for Open vSwitch (OVS).
The neutron-api-plugin-ovn charm is a subordinate charm that augments Neutron's
configuration for use with the OVN ML2 driver. On OpenStack Ussuri and onwards
the OVN ML2 driver is maintained as an in-tree driver in Neutron. On OpenStack
Train it is maintained separately as the networking-ovn
plugin.
Usage
OVN makes use of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to authenticate and authorize
control plane communication. The charm requires a Certificate Authority to be
present in the model as represented by the certificates
relation.
The OpenStack Base bundle gives an example of how you can deploy OpenStack and OVN with Vault to automate certificate lifecycle management.
Please refer to the OVN Appendix in the OpenStack Charms Deployment Guide for details.
