networking-hyperv
This project tracks the work to integrate the Hyper-V networking with Neutron.
This project contains the Hyper-V Neutron Agent, Security Groups Driver, and
ML2 Mechanism Driver, which are used to properly bind neutron ports on a
Hyper-V host.
This project resulted from the neutron core vendor decomposition.
Supports Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4, and Python 3.5.
How to Install
Run the following command to install the agent on the system:
::
C:\networking-hyperv> python setup.py install
To use the neutron-hyperv-agent
, the Neutron Controller will have to be
properly configured. For this, the config option core_plugin
in the
/etc/neutron/neutron.conf
file must be set as follows:
::
core_plugin = neutron.plugins.ml2.plugin.Ml2Plugin
Additionally, hyperv
will have to be added as a mechanism driver in the
/etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini
configuration file:
::
mechanism_drivers = openvswitch,hyperv
In order for these changes to take effect, the neutron-server
service will
have to be restarted.
Finally, make sure the tenant_network_types
field contains network types
supported by Hyper-V: local, flat, vlan, gre.
Tests
You will have to install the test dependencies first to be able to run the
tests.
::
C:\networking-hyperv> pip install -r requirements.txt
C:\networking-hyperv> pip install -r test-requirements.txt
You can run the unit tests with the following command.
::
C:\networking-hyperv> nosetests networking_hyperv\tests
