Install and configure controller node
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. only:: obs or rdo or ubuntu
Prerequisites
-------------
Before you configure the OpenStack Networking (neutron) service, you
must create a database, service credentials, and API endpoints.
#. To create the database, complete these steps:
* Use the database access client to connect to the database server as the
``root`` user:
.. code-block:: console
$ mysql -u root -p
* Create the ``neutron`` database:
.. code-block:: console
CREATE DATABASE neutron;
* Grant proper access to the ``neutron`` database, replacing
``NEUTRON_DBPASS`` with a suitable password:
.. code-block:: console
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON neutron.* TO 'neutron'@'localhost' \
IDENTIFIED BY 'NEUTRON_DBPASS';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON neutron.* TO 'neutron'@'%' \
IDENTIFIED BY 'NEUTRON_DBPASS';
* Exit the database access client.
#. Source the ``admin`` credentials to gain access to admin-only CLI
commands:
.. code-block:: console
$ . admin-openrc
#. To create the service credentials, complete these steps:
* Create the ``neutron`` user:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack user create --domain default --password-prompt neutron
User Password:
Repeat User Password:
+-----------+----------------------------------+
| Field | Value |

* Add the ``admin`` role to the ``neutron`` user:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack role add --project service --user neutron admin
.. note::
This command provides no output.
* Create the ``neutron`` service entity:
.. code-block:: console
$ openstack service create --name neutron \

Configure networking options
----------------------------
You can deploy the Networking service using one of two architectures
represented by options 1 and 2.
Option 1 deploys the simplest possible architecture that only supports
attaching instances to provider (external) networks. No self-service (private)
networks, routers, or floating IP addresses. Only the ``admin`` or other
privileged user can manage provider networks.
Option 2 augments option 1 with layer-3 services that support attaching
instances to self-service networks. The ``demo`` or other unprivileged
user can manage self-service networks including routers that provide
connectivity between self-service and provider networks. Additionally,
floating IP addresses provide connectivity to instances using self-service
networks from external networks such as the Internet.
Self-service networks typically use overlay networks. Overlay network
protocols such as VXLAN include additional headers that increase overhead
and decrease space available for the payload or user data. Without knowledge
of the virtual network infrastructure, instances attempt to send packets
using the default Ethernet :term:`maximum transmission unit (MTU)` of 1500
bytes. The Networking service automatically provides the correct MTU value
to instances via DHCP. However, some cloud images do not use DHCP or ignore
the DHCP MTU option and require configuration using metadata or a script.
.. note::
Option 2 also supports attaching instances to provider networks.
Choose one of the following networking options to configure services
specific to it. Afterwards, return here and proceed to
:ref:`neutron-controller-metadata-agent`.

neutron-controller-install-option2.rst
.. _neutron-controller-metadata-agent:
Configure the metadata agent
----------------------------
The :term:`metadata agent <Metadata agent>` provides configuration information
such as credentials to instances.
* Edit the ``/etc/neutron/metadata_agent.ini`` file and complete the following
actions:
* In the ``[DEFAULT]`` section, configure the metadata host and shared
secret:
.. code-block:: ini
[DEFAULT]
...
nova_metadata_ip = controller
metadata_proxy_shared_secret = METADATA_SECRET
Replace ``METADATA_SECRET`` with a suitable secret for the metadata proxy.
Configure Compute to use Networking
-----------------------------------
* Edit the ``/etc/nova/nova.conf`` file and perform the following actions:
* In the ``[neutron]`` section, configure access parameters, enable the
metadata proxy, and configure the secret:
.. code-block:: ini
[neutron]
...
url = http://controller:9696
auth_url = http://controller:35357
auth_type = password
project_domain_name = default
user_domain_name = default
region_name = RegionOne
project_name = service
username = neutron
password = NEUTRON_PASS
service_metadata_proxy = True
metadata_proxy_shared_secret = METADATA_SECRET
Replace ``NEUTRON_PASS`` with the password you chose for the ``neutron``
user in the Identity service.
Replace ``METADATA_SECRET`` with the secret you chose for the metadata
proxy.
Finalize installation
---------------------
.. only:: rdo
#. The Networking service initialization scripts expect a symbolic link
``/etc/neutron/plugin.ini`` pointing to the ML2 plug-in configuration
file, ``/etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini``. If this symbolic
link does not exist, create it using the following command:
.. code-block:: console
# ln -s /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini /etc/neutron/plugin.ini
#. Populate the database:
.. code-block:: console
# su -s /bin/sh -c "neutron-db-manage --config-file /etc/neutron/neutron.conf \
--config-file /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini upgrade head" neutron
.. note::
Database population occurs later for Networking because the script
requires complete server and plug-in configuration files.
#. Restart the Compute API service:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl restart openstack-nova-api.service
#. Start the Networking services and configure them to start when the system
boots.
For both networking options:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl enable neutron-server.service \
neutron-linuxbridge-agent.service neutron-dhcp-agent.service \
neutron-metadata-agent.service
# systemctl start neutron-server.service \
neutron-linuxbridge-agent.service neutron-dhcp-agent.service \
neutron-metadata-agent.service
For networking option 2, also enable and start the layer-3 service:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl enable neutron-l3-agent.service
# systemctl start neutron-l3-agent.service
.. only:: obs
#. Restart the Compute API service:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl restart openstack-nova-api.service
#. Start the Networking services and configure them to start when the system
boots.
For both networking options:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl enable openstack-neutron.service \
openstack-neutron-linuxbridge-agent.service \
openstack-neutron-dhcp-agent.service \
openstack-neutron-metadata-agent.service
# systemctl start openstack-neutron.service \
openstack-neutron-linuxbridge-agent.service \
openstack-neutron-dhcp-agent.service \
openstack-neutron-metadata-agent.service
For networking option 2, also enable and start the layer-3 service:
.. code-block:: console
# systemctl enable openstack-neutron-l3-agent.service
# systemctl start openstack-neutron-l3-agent.service
.. only:: ubuntu
#. Populate the database:
.. code-block:: console
# su -s /bin/sh -c "neutron-db-manage --config-file /etc/neutron/neutron.conf \
--config-file /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini upgrade head" neutron
.. note::
Database population occurs later for Networking because the script
requires complete server and plug-in configuration files.
#. Restart the Compute API service:
.. code-block:: console
# service nova-api restart
#. Restart the Networking services.
For both networking options:
.. code-block:: console
# service neutron-server restart
# service neutron-linuxbridge-agent restart
# service neutron-dhcp-agent restart
# service neutron-metadata-agent restart
For networking option 2, also restart the layer-3 service:
.. code-block:: console
# service neutron-l3-agent restart
.. only:: ubuntu
4. By default, the Ubuntu packages create an SQLite database.
Because this configuration uses an SQL database server,
you can remove the SQLite database file:
.. code-block:: console
# rm -f /var/lib/neutron/neutron.sqlite
