Hi, Deepak!

  The easiest way I can imagine is to use multiple VLANs, put all ceph hosts 
ports into every VLAN and use a wider subnet. For example, you can set 
192.168.0.0/16<http://192.168.0.0/16> for the public ceph network, use 
192.168.0.1-254 IPs for ceph hosts, 192.168.1.1-254/16 IPs for the first 
tenant, 192.168.2.1-254/16 for the second and so on. You'll have to be sure 
that no ceph hosts have any routing facilities running and then get a number of 
isolated L2 networks with the common part. Actually it's not a good way and 
lead to many errors (your tenants must carefully use provided IPs and do not 
cross with other IPs spaces despite of the /16 bitmask).


  An another option is - like David said - L3 routed network. In this case you 
will probably face with network bandwidth problems: all your traffic will go 
through one interface. But if your switches have L3 functionality you can route 
packets there. And again, the problem would be in bandwidth: usually switches 
doesn't have a lot of power and routed bandwidth leaves a lot to desire.


  And the craziest one :-). It just a theory, never tried this in production 
and even in a lab.

  As with previous options you go with multiple per-tenant VLANs and ceph hosts 
ports in all of these VLANs.

  You need to choose a different network for public interfaces, for ex., 
10.0.0.0/24<http://10.0.0.0/24>. Then set loopback interface on each ceph host 
and attach a single unique IP to it, like 10.0.0.1/32<http://10.0.0.1/32>, 
10.0.0.2/32<http://10.0.0.2/32> and so on. Enable IP forwarding and start RIP 
routing daemon on each ceph host. Setup and configure ceph, use attached IP as 
MON IP.

  Create ceph VLAN with all ceph hosts and set a common network IP subnet (for 
ex, 172.16.0.0/24<http://172.16.0.0/24>), attach IP from this network to every 
ceph host. Check that you can reach any of the public (loopback) IPs from any 
ceph host.

  Now create multiple per-tenant VLANs and put ceph hosts ports into every one. 
Set isolated subnets for your tenant's networks, for example, 
192.168.0.0/23<http://192.168.0.0/23>, use 192.168.0.x IPs as the additional 
addresses for the ceph hosts, 192.168.1.x as tenant network. Start RIP routing 
daemon on every tenant host. Check that you can reach every ceph public IPs 
(10.0.0.x/32).

  I would also configure RIP daemon to advertise only 10.0.0.x/32 network on 
each ceph host and set RIP daemon on passive mode on client hosts. It's better 
to configure firewall on ceph hosts as well to prevent extra-subnets 
communications.

  In theory it should work but can't say much on how stable would it be.

Best regards,
Vladimir

Hi Vlad,

Thanks for chiming in.

>>It's not clear what you want to achieve from the ceph point of view?
Multiple tenancy. We will have multiple tenants from different isolated 
subnet/network accessing single ceph cluster which can support multiple 
tenants. The only problem I see with ceph in a physical env setup is I cannot 
isolate public networks , example mon,mds for multiple subnet/network/tenants.

>>For example, for the network isolation you can use managed switches, set 
>>different VLANs and put ceph hosts to the every VLAN.
Yes we have managed switches with VLAN. And if I add for example 2x public 
interferences on Net1(subnet 192.168.1.0/24<http://192.168.1.0/24>) and 
Net2(subnet 192.168.2.0/24<http://192.168.2.0/24>) how does the ceph.conf look 
like. How does my mon and MDS server config look like, that's the 
challenge/question.

>>But it's a shoot in the dark as I don't know what exactly you need. For 
>>example, what services (block storage, object storage, API etc) you want to 
>>offer to your tenants and so on

CephFS and Object. I am familiar on how to get the ceph storage part "tenant 
friendly", it's just the network part I need to isolate.
