ONES Orchestration

This section explains how large data centers can be designed seamlessly using ONES.

Configuring Devices

Most fabric orchestration solutions available today are complex and often difficult to understand. ONES provides simple and effective tools, such as predefined templates (YAML file), to configure data centers at scale. ONES allows a customized way of configuring devices that includes enhancements to the standard configuration.

The device should not have any IP, VLAN, Portchannel, BGP, SAG, or MCLAG config on any of the Interfaces to avoid overlapping during the orchestration and run into cleanup issues.
Post that, the user needs to save the config to a file, in case of any orchestration failure, or misconfiguration user can rollback to the saved config.

Configuration Commands:

  • Save Config:

    sudo config save -y
  • Copy to File:

    sudo cp /etc/sonic/config_db.json /host/backup_config_db.json
  • Restore Config: //If needed only

    sudo config reload /host/backup_config_db_json -y
    

Speed config for the Host Facing port should be updated before Orchestration if there is any change in the default speed config.

Ex: Interface speed is 25G, but you can use it with 10G Transceiver. In such cases, user needs to update speed.

Configuration Commands:

Update Speed:

sudo config interface speed Ethernet0 10000

Configuration Commands:

  • Save Config:

    sudo config save -y
  • Copy to File:

    sudo cp /etc/sonic/config_db.json /host/backup_config_db.json
  • Restore Config: //If needed only

    sudo config reload /host/backup_config_db_json -y

You need to provide the following inputs to configure the devices:

Device Details

Username - Device User-Name

Management IP - Device IP for management

Device Credentials - Login admin user-name & password with write permission

BGP ASN (Autonomous System Number)

Local AS number - Local BGP AS number a user wants to use

Subnet Details

IPv4 Subnet - IPv4 address range a user wants to use in the domain

IPv4 Loopback - IPv4 address range to use on the devices only for the loopback address

IPv6 Subnet - IPv6 address range a user wants to use in the domain

Connectivity

Link connectivity between (SuperSpine, Spine, Leaf & TOR)

Link Type (Access Trunk)

Layer-2 / Layer3 - interface type

MCLAG Details

VLAN - VLAN to b used for interfaces

PO Group - PortChannel number to be used to bundle the interface

Keepalive VLAN - VLAN a user wants to use to send keepalive messages

VRF number - VRF number to be used for MC-LAG

Host Interface

L2 Access & VLAN - Host facing interface with Access port & VLAN allocation

L2 Trunk & VLAN - Host facing interface with trunk port & VLAN allocation

L3 - Host facing interface with Layer 3 properties

Network Service Address

NTP server - NTP server a user wants to add

Syslog - Syslog server IP address

SNMP - SNMP Server address a user wants to add

VXLAN

VLAN Range - VLAN range a user wants to use for VXLAN Ex. 200-205

VNI Range - VNI range a user wants to use for VXLAN Ex.20000-20005

Any-Cast Gateway - Any-cast Gateway Subnet

Host Per Vlan - Allocation of Host per VLAN

IRB VLAN Range - IRB VLAN is a separate input and should not overlap with VXLAN VNI

IRB VNI Range - IRB VNI is separate input and should not overlap with VXLAN VNI

ONES requires a minimal set of information from the users to configure the devices. The tool is simple to use and allows to configure a large number of devices simultaneously.

Configuration Overview

This section explains the device configuration procedures, that gets applied seamlessly across the entire fabric

  • Navigate to Configurations >> Devices

  • Click on the Configure Devices button in the top right corner. This opens a new screen with a sample device configuration. You can edit the configurations directly in the UI to make the desired changes. You can also download the sample YAML file by clicking on Download YAML button, provided at the bottom of the above screen, make new changes and upload the YAML file using Upload YAML button.

A detailed explanation of all the intend fields

Inventory: Specify how many devices you want to add in any particular role - Super Spine, Spine, Leaf, and ToR.

  • Inventory:
      SSpines: 2      #Define the count of devices in the SuperSpine role
      Spines: 2       #Define the count of devices in the Spine role
      Leafs: 2        #Define the count of devices in the Leaf role
      Tors: 1         #Define the count of devices in the Tor role

Connectivity: Specify the parameters required to establish link connectivity such as:

  1. Device switch ID: unique ID for every device, required to correctly render the topology

  2. Switch name: hostname of the device

  3. IP address: management address of the device

  4. Autonomous System Number (ASN): BGP AS number to use

  5. Device Credentials: Username & Password.

BGP: Specify if you want to enable regular BGP peering or BGP unnumbered peering.

  • BGP:  
        #BGP_U If set to False, this configures regular BGP peering.
        #BGP_U If set to True, this configures BGP unnumbered peering
        #ND_RA is reserved for future development
      BGP_U: False
      ND_RA: 30    

PhysicalIfCfg: Enable or disable FEC and change the MTU settings on all the links being configured.

  • PhysicalIfCfg:
      FEC: On    #Possible values are On or Off
      MTU: 8000  #MTU value a user wants to change
      AdminStatus: Up #Set the status UP 

ASN: Assign a BGP ASN (Autonomous System Number) from the specified pool. Dynamic assigning ASN will be implemented in ONES release 2.0. For release 1.0, you need to specify the ASN under the device configuration, as shown in the sample YAML file.

  • ASN:
      SSpine: 10000-20000
      Spine: 21000-50000
      Leaf: 51000-60000
      Tor: 61000-70000

IPv4Pool: Assign IP pools to different subnets. ONES automatically divides the subnets according to the number of available links.

ONES application uses IPv4 subnets for:

  • Interfaces

  • Loopbacks

  • Host interfaces

  • To configure BGP neighborship

  • ONES automatically advertises these subnets in BGP

    • IPv4Pool:
        Loopback: 19.168.10.0/24
        LeafSpine: 20.168.10.0/24
        LeafTor: 30.168.10.0/24
        Host: 49.0.0.0/24

IPv6Pool: Assign IPv6 subnet.

ONES application uses:

  • IPv6 subnet for interfaces

  • Subnets to configure BGP neighborship

  • Automatically advertise these subnets in BGP

    • IPv6Pool:
        LeafSpine:   #Define IPv6 Pool 
        LeafTor:     #Define IPv6 Pool
        Host:        #Define IPv6 Pool

Note* IPv6 loopback is not supported

NTP: Provide the NTP server address, to enable NTP. You can choose your desired timezone.

  • NTP:
      server: 128.138.141.172
      timezone: Asia/Kolkata

Creating Configuration

  • Navigate to Configurations >> Devices >> Configure Devices

Applying Configuration

Click on Apply Configs button in the bottom right corner of the above screen, to push the configs across the entire fabric.

ONES provides real-time updates when the devices are being configured and validates the configurations automatically to ensure the network is ready to use.

You will see the below screen, after the configurations are successfully verified:

FRR config Issue

With Few versions of FRR, when user gives reboot, existing config is erased and default config is pushed to FRR. This will lead to missing the configuration for users. below is the workaround config in this situation

  • Go inside BGP Container & Open docker_init.sh

    root@Leaf-1:/# vi /usr/bin/docker_init.sh
  • Look for "Split" Keyword & Comment out the statemets inside that with if conditions

    elif [ "$CONFIG_TYPE" == "split" ]; then
        #echo "no service integrated-vtysh-config" > /etc/frr/vtysh.conf
        rm -f /etc/frr/frr.conf
  • Add a new line which writes Service integrated in vtysh.conf

    elif [ "$CONFIG_TYPE" == "split" ]; then
        #echo "no service integrated-vtysh-config" > /etc/frr/vtysh.conf
        echo "service integrated-vtysh-config" > /etc/frr/vtysh.conf
