Contrail Controller is an open, standards-based software solution that delivers network virtualization and service automation for federated cloud networks. It provides self-service provisioning, improves network troubleshooting and diagnostics, and enables service chaining for dynamic application environments across enterprise virtual private cloud (VPC), managed Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), and Networks Functions Virtualization (NFV) use cases.
Formula support OpenContrail as well as Juniper Contrail package repository in the backend.
Differences withing the configuration and state run are controlled by
opencontrail.common.vendor: [opencontrail|juniper]
pillar attribute.
Default value is set to opencontrail
.
- Juniper releases tested with this formula:
- 3.0.2.x
To use Juniper Contrail repository as a source of packages override pillar as in this example:
opencontrail:
common:
vendor: juniper
There are several scenarios for OpenContrail control plane.
Config, control, analytics, database, web -- altogether on one node.
