Hi All, I have been tasked with creating an openstack cloud on a cluster at the University of Maine. Here is a rough diagram of the planned network network setup: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22341705/network-layout.jpg wher XXX.YYY.ZZZ is the upper portion of our public, routable IPs.
Here are some (what I am sure) basic questions about how I should configure the network: 1) What is the purpose of my_ip and routing_source_ip? In this example should my_ip=10.20.0.1 and routing_source_ip=XXX.YYY.ZZZ.226? Obviously this would only apply to cloudy correct? 2) is it possible to specify floating_range as a range of addresses? Our block of floating addresses does not have a valid CIDR notation. 3) What is the recommended binding for endpoints? For node1 ... nodeN it seems the public/internal/admin endpoints will all be on the 10.20.0.0/16 network. For cloudy are there any services that should have endpoints on the XXX.YYY.ZZZ.0/24 network? For example it seems like having the ec2 compatiblity service on the public network might be useful for tools such as hybrid-fox. Is it good practice to bind all admin urls to the managment network? Thank you for the help, I am sure a lot of these questions come from a lack of experience actually using openstack (or cloud based computing in general). If you have any recommended reading material, faqs, guides, screencasts, stone tablets, etc. that you find useful I would really appreciate it if you post them.
