This page overviews integrations with other services like Neutron and others to
|
|
make use of Designate more convenient.

|
Reverse - FloatingIP
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
The FloatingIP PTR feature of Designate relies on information of the FloatingIP
|
|
which is in a different service than Designate itself. It can be in any service
|
|
as long as their is a "plugin" for it that can be loaded via the configuration
|
|
setting called "network_api".
|
|
|
|
* Controller, views and schemas in the V2 API
|
|
* RPC Client towards Central used by the API and Sink
|
|
* Logic in Central to make it convenient for setting, unsetting, listing and
|
|
getting FloatingIP PTR records compared to the Records themselves which would
|
|
be more work. (This is outlined in code docstrings for the specific methods.)
|
|
* Sink handlers for the various backend to help us be more consistent.
|
|
|
|
Record invalidation
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Happens mainly happens via comparing a Tenant's FloatingIPs
|
|
towards the list we have of Records which are of a certain plugin type and
|
|
with the use of a Sink handler that listens for incoming events from the
|
|
various services.
|
|
|
|
Configuring Neutron
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Configuring the FloatingIP feature is really simple:
|
|
|
|
[network_api:neutron]
|
|
# endpoints = RegionOne|http://localhost:9696
|
|
# endpoint_type = publicURL
|
|
# timeout = 30
|
|
# admin_username = designate
|
|
# admin_password = designate
|
|
# admin_tenant_name = designate
|
|
# auth_url = http://localhost:35357/v2.0
|
|
# insecure = False
|
|
# auth_strategy = keystone
|
|
# ca_certificates_file = /etc/path/to/ca.pem
|
|
|
|
Note that using admin_user, admin_password and admin_tenant_name is optional,
|
|
if not present we'll piggyback on the context.auth_token passed in by the API.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
If "endpoints" is not configured and there's no service catalog is present
|
|
in the context passed by the API to Central the request will fail in
|
|
a NoEndpoint exception.
