in example ``br-ex`` or ``bond-0`` cannot be used because ansible will read
|

them as ``br_ex`` and ``bond_0`` respectively.

Address family configuration (IPv4/IPv6)
|
||||
----------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with the Train release, Kolla Ansible allows operators to deploy
|
||||
the control plane using IPv6 instead of IPv4. Each Kolla Ansible network
|
||||
(as represented by interfaces) provides a choice of two address families.
|
||||
Both internal and external VIP addresses can be configured using an IPv6
|
||||
address as well.
|
||||
IPv6 is tested on Debian and Ubuntu.
|
||||
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
|
||||
While Kolla Ansible Train requires Ansible 2.6 or later, IPv6 support requires
|
||||
Ansible 2.8 or later due to a bug:
|
||||
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/63227
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
Currently there is no dual stack support. IPv4 can be mixed with IPv6 only
|
||||
when on different networks. This constraint arises from services requiring
|
||||
common single address family addressing.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, ``network_address_family`` accepts either ``ipv4`` or ``ipv6``
|
||||
as its value and defines the default address family for all networks just
|
||||
like ``network_interface`` defines the default interface.
|
||||
Analogically, ``api_adress_family`` changes the address family for the API
|
||||
network. Current listing of networks is available in ``globals.yml`` file.
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
While IPv6 support introduced in Train is broad, some services are known
|
||||
not to work yet with IPv6 or have some known quirks:
|
||||
|
||||
* CentOS 7 images suffer from IPv6 connectivity issues:
|
||||
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+bug/1848444
|
||||
|
||||
* Bifrost does not support IPv6:
|
||||
https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2006689
|
||||
|
||||
* Docker does not allow IPv6 registry address:
|
||||
https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/39033
|
||||
- the workaround is to use the hostname
|
||||
|
||||
* RabbitMQ in provided images prefers IPv4 addresses when resolving names:
|
||||
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+bug/1848452
|
||||
- the workaround is to ensure that the hostname resolves uniquely
|
||||
to an IPv6 address
|
||||
|
||||
* Ironic DHCP server, dnsmasq, is not currently automatically configured
|
||||
to offer DHCPv6: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible/+bug/1848454
