This section covers configuring Networking for a single flat network for bare
metal provisioning.
Baremetal service requires the baremetal mechanism driver to be installed and
enabled in the networking service for flat networks. Documentation regarding
installation and configuration of the baremetal mechanism driver is available
at `here <https://docs.openstack.org/networking-baremetal/latest/index.html>`_.
It is recommended to use the baremetal ML2 mechanism driver and L2 agent for
proper integration with the Networking service. Documentation regarding
installation and configuration of the baremetal mechanism driver and L2 agent
is available `here
<https://docs.openstack.org/networking-baremetal/latest/index.html>`_.
For use with `routed networks
<https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/admin/config-routed-networks>`_
the baremetal ML2 components are required.
.. Note:: When the baremetal ML2 components are *not* used, ports in the
Networking service will have status: ``DOWN``, and binding_vif_type:
``binding_failed``. This was always the status for Bare Metal
service ``flat`` network interface ports prior to the introduction
of the baremetal ML2 integration. For a non-routed network, bare
metal servers can still be deployed and are functional, despite this
port binding state in the Networking service.
You will also need to provide Bare Metal service with the MAC address(es) of
each node that it is provisioning; Bare Metal service in turn will pass this
information to Networking service for DHCP and PXE boot configuration.
An example of this is shown in the :ref:`enrollment` section.
