Sorin Sbarnea 536e1f7f8c Make gentoo multinode job nv
Gentoo multinode job is consistently failing. To disable only this
job with current test framework, we need to adapt the test framework, so
that disabling of specific jobs is possible.

Also includes minor documentation fix which triggers affected jobs.

2.1 KiB

Configures a VXLAN virtual network overlay through an openvswitch network bridge between a 'switch' node and 'peer' nodes.

This allows members of the bridge to communicate with each other through the virtual network.

By default, this role will:

  • Install and start openvswitch
  • Set up a br-infra bridge on all nodes
  • Set up the connectivity between the switch and the peer with a virtual port
  • Set up an ip address on the bridge interface:
172.24.4.1/23 # switch node
172.41.4.2/23 # first peer
172.41.4.3/23 # second peer
...

Role requirements

This role requires and expects two groups to be set up in the Ansible host inventory in order to work:

  • switch (the node acting as the switch)
  • peers (nodes connected to the virtual switch ports)
