A10 Networks LBaaS Driver
|
|
==========================================
|
|
|
|
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/a10networks-lbaas-driver
|
|
|
|
Resubmitting Icehouse BP. Neutron/LBaaS driver for A10 Networks appliances.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Problem description
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
The new driver would allow using A10 Networks ADC appliances (hardware or
|
|
software) as backends for Neutron/LBaaS functionality.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Proposed change
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The driver will implement the interfaces in the lbaas abstract_driver, using
|
|
axAPI version 2.1, a JSON HTTP interface for configuring A10 appliances. The
|
|
currently implemented methods are:
|
|
|
|
* create_vip
|
|
* update_vip
|
|
* delete_vip
|
|
* create_pool
|
|
* update_pool
|
|
* delete_pool
|
|
* stats
|
|
* create_member
|
|
* update_member
|
|
* delete_member
|
|
* update_pool_health_monitor
|
|
* create_pool_health_monitor
|
|
* delete_pool_health_monitor
|
|
|
|
Among the current LBaaS functionality (as of Icehouse), the only unsupported
|
|
feature is APP_COOKIE persistence.
|
|
|
|
Driver will support the upcoming Juno LBaaS object model changes. Juno TLS support will be included in a future blueprint.

Work Items
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
* A10 driver code
|
|
* Unit tests
|
|
* Voting CI
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Driver likely affected by LBaaS model and TLS changes for Juno:
|
|
|
|
* https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/lbaas-api-and-objmodel-improvement
|
|
|
|
* https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/lbaas-ssl-termination
|
|
|
|
|
|
Testing
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
* Unit tests
|
|
|
|
* A10 QA
|
|
|
|
* Existing LBaaS tests provide complete coverage, if driver is installed
|
|
and configured (as our CI will do.)
|
|
|
|
* Not testable in gate, requires hardware. Third party CI will be in place.
