Rules Files & Interfaces Files

• You can pass multiple files containing component rules via --rules-files.

• You can specify various files containing network interfaces rules via --interfaces-files.

  A particular interfaces.yaml file looks as follows:

    interfaces:
      Network-1: "https://localhost:4567/api/admin/network/<vdc-network-uuid>"
      Network-2: "https://localhost:4567/api/admin/network/<vdc-network-uuid>"
  

  To find the urls for network, follow the document a docs/find_network_url

  rule "<description>" do
     source      :ip => "172.10.0.0/8"
     destination :ip => "172.10.0.5", :port => 4567
  end
end

NAT

nat do
    snat :interface => "<key-from-interfaces.rb>", :original => { :ip => "internal-ip" }, :translated => { :ip => "external-ip" }, :desc => "description"
    dnat :interface => "<key-from-interfaces.rb>", :original => { :ip => "external-ip", :port => 22 }, :translated => { :ip => "internal-ip", :port => 22 },  :desc => "SSH"
end

Load Balancer

load_balancer do
  configure "description-1" do
    pool ["<ip-1>", "<ip-2>"] do
      http
      https
    end

    virtual_server :name => "description-1", :interface => "<key-from-interfaces.rb>", :ip => "<vse-ip>"
  end

  configure "description-2" do
    pool ["<ip-1>", "<ip-2>", "<ip-3>"] do
      http :port => 8080, :health_check_path => "</router/healthcheck>"
      https
    end

    virtual_server :name => "description-2", :interface => "<key-from-interfaces.rb>", :ip => "<vse-ip>"
  end
