The aim is to monitor virtual routers per tenant with Monasca(which according to my knowledge hasn't been implemented yet). The initial features would include monitoring of in/out traffic per interface. I'm writing a plugin in Monasca for that purpose. If I'm not wrong, I can fetch the data about routers sitting on different compute nodes(in DVR case) running monasca-agent from Neutron database but will have to devise a mechanism to filter traffic based on tenants and subnets. Is there something already implemented in Neutron that I can use for this purpose? > Also, I would really appreciate if you guys tell me some use cases for Openstack's virtual routers monitoring per tenant with Monasca? > Thanks, > Rubab >
Hi! Architecture-wise, the virtual routers in DVR are at the Network node. Each router is associated with a tenant and handles SNAT traffic and inter-network traffic. The DVR is a DNAT at the compute nodes. All internet traffic of instances with Floating IPs goes through it. You may want to measure: north-south traffic of SNATted and of Floating IP associated instances, east-west same-network and east-west different-network traffic. And isn't it the problem of your supervisor to tell you the use cases? He should be the one who knows why you are doing the project after all.
