[openstack-dev] [magnum] Are Floating IPs really needed for all nodes?

Egor,
I agree with you. I think Magnum should support another option to connect a bay to an existing neutron private network instead of creating one. If you like, we can discuss it separately in our next team meeting or in the design summit.

Best regards,
Hongbin

Hongbin,

It's correct, I was involved in two big OpenStack private cloud deployments and we never had public ips.
In such case Magnum shouldn't create any private networks, operator need to provide network id/name or
it should use default  (we used to have networking selection logic in scheduler) .

Egor,

I agree with what you said, but I think we need to address the problem that some clouds are lack of public IP addresses. It is not uncommon that a private cloud is running without public IP addresses, and they already figured out how to route traffics in and out. In such case, a bay doesn’t need to have floating IPs and the NodePort feature seems to work with the private IP address.

Generally speaking, I think it is useful to have a feature that allows bays to work without public IP addresses. I don’t want to end up in a situation that Magnum is unusable because the clouds don’t have enough public IP addresses.

Best regards,
Hongbin

-1

who is going to run/support this proxy? also keep in mind that Kubernetes Service/NodePort (http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/services/#type-nodeport)
functionality is not going to work without public ip and this is very handy feature.

Hi yuanying,

I agree to reduce the usage of floating IP. But as far as I know, if we need to pull
docker images from docker hub in nodes floating ips are needed. To reduce the
usage of floating ip, we can use proxy. Only some nodes have floating ips, and
other nodes can access docker hub by proxy.

Best Regards,
Wanghua

I think we can add option on whether to using floating ip address since IP address are
kinds of resource which not wise to waste.

Hi team,

Previously, we had a reason why all nodes should have floating ips [1].
But now we have a LoadBalancer features for masters [2] and minions [3].
And also minions do not necessarily need to have floating ips [4].
I think it’s the time to remove floating ips from all nodes.

I know we are using floating ips in gate to get log files,
So it’s not good idea to remove floating ips entirely.

I want to introduce `disable-floating-ips-to-nodes` parameter to bay model.

Thoughts?
