Network configuration is based upon using the Neutron-based options supported by the Red Hat OpenStack Platform code base, and does not rely upon third-party drivers. This reference configuration is based upon the Neutron networking services using the ML2 drivers for Open vSwitch with the VLAN option.
Networking includes:
- Core and layered networking capabilities
- Network Function Virtualization (NFV)
- 25 GbE and 100 GbE networking
- NIC bonding
- Redundant trunking top-of-rack (ToR) switches into core routers
This enables the Dell EMC Ready Architecture for Red Hat OpenStack Platform to operate in a full production environment.
See Network architecture for guidelines. Detailed designs are available through Dell EMC consulting services.
