Description of configuration options for bigswitch
Configuration option=Default value (Type) Description
add_meta_server_route=True (BoolOpt) Flag to decide if a route to the metadata server should be injected into the VM
max_router_rules=200 (IntOpt) Maximum number of router rules
neutron_id=neutron-docwork (StrOpt) User defined identifier for this Neutron deployment
node_override_vif_802.1qbg= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to 802.1qbg
node_override_vif_802.1qbh= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to 802.1qbh
node_override_vif_binding_failed= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to binding_failed
node_override_vif_bridge= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to bridge
node_override_vif_hyperv= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to hyperv
node_override_vif_ivs= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to ivs
node_override_vif_other= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to other
node_override_vif_ovs= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to ovs
node_override_vif_unbound= (ListOpt) Nova compute nodes to manually set VIF type to unbound
server_auth=username:password (StrOpt) The username and password for authenticating against the BigSwitch or Floodlight controller.
server_ssl=False (BoolOpt) If True, Use SSL when connecting to the BigSwitch or Floodlight controller.
server_timeout=10 (IntOpt) Maximum number of seconds to wait for proxy request to connect and complete.
servers=localhost:8800 (StrOpt) A comma separated list of BigSwitch or Floodlight servers and port numbers. The plugin proxies the requests to the BigSwitch/Floodlight server, which performs the networking configuration. Note that only one server is needed per deployment, but you may wish to deploy multiple servers to support failover.
sync_data=False (BoolOpt) Sync data on connect
tenant_default_router_rule=['*:any:any:permit'] (MultiStrOpt) The default router rules installed in new tenant routers. Repeat the config option for each rule. Format is <tenant>:<source>:<destination>:<action> Use an * to specify default for all tenants.
vif_type=ovs (StrOpt) Virtual interface type to configure on Nova compute nodes
vif_types=unbound,binding_failed,ovs,ivs,bridge,802.1qbg,802.1qbh,hyperv,other (ListOpt) List of allowed vif_type values.
