Mark Goddard dcc25d8524 Configure VM interfaces in macvtap passthrough mode
Tenks currently uses macvtap interfaces in 'VEPA' mode for the VMs. If the VMs
run any virtual networking internally, typically this will use a different MAC
address, which will not be reachable from outside due to the macvtap MAC
filtering.

This change uses macvtap 'passthrough' mode, such that all traffic is passed.

Tenks is a utility that manages virtual bare metal clusters for development and testing purposes. It offers:

  • Declarative definition of clusters using Ansible's familiar YAML syntax
  • Automated creation and deletion of virtualised bare metal nodes across any number of hypervisors
  • In-built management of Open vSwitch bridges for physical networks
  • Registration of nodes and ports with OpenStack Ironic, and creation of OpenStack Nova flavors
  • Simple cluster reconfiguration and tear-down

To get started with Tenks, see the documentation (linked below).
