Midonet integration with OpenStack Mitaka
MidoNet is an Open Source network virtualization software for IaaS infrastructure. | It decouples your IaaS cloud from your network hardware, creating an intelligent software abstraction layer between your end hosts and your physical network. | This network abstraction layer allows the cloud operator to move what has traditionally been hardware-based network appliances into a software-based multi-tenant virtual domain.
This definition from MidoNet documentation explains what MidoNet is and what MidoNet does.
At this I will post cover my experiences integrating MidoNet with OpenStack. | I used the following configurations:
All servers have CentOS 7.2 installed
OpenStack has been previously installed from RDO packages with multinode Packstack
- x3 NSDB nodes (Casandra and Zookeeper services)
- x2 Gateway Nodes (Midolman Agent)
- x1 OpenStack Controller (MidoNet Cluster)
- x1 OpenStack compute node (Midolman Agent)

Attach the tenant subnet interface we created before to the router
# neutron router-interface-add router1 demo-subnet
Added interface 06c85a56-368c-4d79-bbf0-4bb077f163e5 to router router1.
Set the external network as router gateway
# neutron router-gateway-set router1 ext-net
Set gateway for router router1
Now, you can create an instance at tenant network

| At this point you have to decide if use border routers with BGP enabled or static routes. | Use one of the following links to configure your use case: | https://docs.midonet.org/docs/latest/operations-guide/content/bgp_uplink_configuration.html | https://docs.midonet.org/docs/latest/operations-guide/content/static_setup.html
Issues I faced during configuration of Midonet
| Midolman agent don\'t start: | It was caused because midolman-env.sh file has more RAM configured as the one of my server. | Edit the file to match your server resources
# egrep ^MAX_HEAP_SIZE /etc/midolman/midolman-env.sh
MAX_HEAP_SIZE="2048M"
Instances doesn\'t boot with the following error:
could not open /dev/net/tun: Permission denied
I had to remove br-tun bridges at ovs, if not, ovs locks the device and midolman cannot create the tunnel beetwen compute nodes and gateway nodes.
ovs-vsctl del-br br-tun
| This post is my experience integrating Midonet into OpenStack, maybe some things are not correct, if you find any issue, please advise me to fix it. | Regards, Eduardo Gonzalez
