8.1. Networking overview

OpenShift Virtualization provides advanced networking functionality by using custom resources and plugins. Virtual machines (VMs) are integrated with OpenShift Container Platform networking and its ecosystem.

Note

You cannot run OpenShift Virtualization on a single-stack IPv6 cluster.

The following figure illustrates the typical network setup of OpenShift Virtualization. Other configurations are also possible.

Figure 8.1. OpenShift Virtualization networking overview

OpenShift Virtualization networking architecture

20 Pods and VMs run on the same network infrastructure which allows you to easily connect your containerized and virtualized workloads.

20 You can connect VMs to the default pod network and to any number of secondary networks.

20 The default pod network provides connectivity between all its members, service abstraction, IP management, micro segmentation, and other functionality.

20 Multus is a "meta" CNI plugin that enables a pod or virtual machine to connect to additional network interfaces by using other compatible CNI plugins.

20 The default pod network is overlay-based, tunneled through the underlying machine network.

20 The machine network can be defined over a selected set of network interface controllers (NICs).

20 Secondary VM networks are typically bridged directly to a physical network, with or without VLAN encapsulation.

20 Secondary VM networks can be defined on dedicated set of NICs, as shown in Figure 1, or they can use the machine network.

8.1.1. OpenShift Virtualization networking glossary

The following terms are used throughout OpenShift Virtualization documentation:

Container Network Interface (CNI)
A Cloud Native Computing Foundation project, focused on container network connectivity. OpenShift Virtualization uses CNI plugins to build upon the basic Kubernetes networking functionality.
Multus
A "meta" CNI plugin that allows multiple CNIs to exist so that a pod or virtual machine can use the interfaces it needs.
Custom resource definition (CRD)
A Kubernetes API resource that allows you to define custom resources, or an object defined by using the CRD API resource.
Network attachment definition (NAD)
A CRD introduced by the Multus project that allows you to attach pods, virtual machines, and virtual machine instances to one or more networks.
Node network configuration policy (NNCP)
A CRD introduced by the nmstate project, describing the requested network configuration on nodes. You update the node network configuration, including adding and removing interfaces, by applying a NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy manifest to the cluster.

8.1.2. Using the default pod network

Connecting a virtual machine to the default pod network
Each VM is connected by default to the default internal pod network. You can add or remove network interfaces by editing the VM specification.
Exposing a virtual machine as a service
You can expose a VM within the cluster or outside the cluster by creating a Service object. For on-premise clusters, you can configure a load balancing service by using the MetalLB Operator. You can install the MetalLB Operator by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console or the CLI.

8.1.3. Configuring VM secondary network interfaces

You can connect a virtual machine to a secondary network by using Linux bridge, SR-IOV and OVN-Kubernetes CNI plugins. You can list multiple secondary networks and interfaces in the VM specification. It is not required to specify the primary pod network in the VM specification when connecting to a secondary network interface.

Connecting a virtual machine to a Linux bridge network

Install the Kubernetes NMState Operator to configure Linux bridges, VLANs, and bondings for your secondary networks.

You can create a Linux bridge network and attach a VM to the network by performing the following steps:

  1. Configure a Linux bridge network device by creating a NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy custom resource definition (CRD).
  2. Configure a Linux bridge network by creating a NetworkAttachmentDefinition CRD.
  3. Connect the VM to the Linux bridge network by including the network details in the VM configuration.
Connecting a virtual machine to an SR-IOV network

You can use Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) network devices with additional networks on your OpenShift Container Platform cluster installed on bare metal or Red Hat OpenStack Platform (RHOSP) infrastructure for applications that require high bandwidth or low latency.

You must install the SR-IOV Network Operator on your cluster to manage SR-IOV network devices and network attachments.

You can connect a VM to an SR-IOV network by performing the following steps:

  1. Configure an SR-IOV network device by creating a SriovNetworkNodePolicy CRD.
  2. Configure an SR-IOV network by creating an SriovNetwork object.
  3. Connect the VM to the SR-IOV network by including the network details in the VM configuration.
Connecting a virtual machine to an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network

You can connect a VM to an Open Virtual Network (OVN)-Kubernetes secondary network. OpenShift Virtualization supports the layer 2 and localnet topologies for OVN-Kubernetes.

  • A layer 2 topology connects workloads by a cluster-wide logical switch. The OVN-Kubernetes Container Network Interface (CNI) plug-in uses the Geneve (Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation) protocol to create an overlay network between nodes. You can use this overlay network to connect VMs on different nodes, without having to configure any additional physical networking infrastructure.
  • A localnet topology connects the secondary network to the physical underlay. This enables both east-west cluster traffic and access to services running outside the cluster, but it requires additional configuration of the underlying Open vSwitch (OVS) system on cluster nodes.

To configure an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network and attach a VM to that network, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network by creating a network attachment definition (NAD).

    Note

    For localnet topology, you must configure an OVS bridge by creating a NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy object before creating the NAD.

  2. Connect the VM to the OVN-Kubernetes secondary network by adding the network details to the VM specification.

8.1.3.1. Comparing Linux bridge CNI and OVN-Kubernetes localnet topology

The following table provides a comparison of features available when using the Linux bridge CNI versus the localnet topology for an OVN-Kubernetes plugin:

Hot plugging secondary network interfaces
You can add or remove secondary network interfaces without stopping your VM. OpenShift Virtualization supports hot plugging and hot unplugging for Linux bridge interfaces that use the VirtIO device driver.
Using DPDK with SR-IOV
The Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) provides a set of libraries and drivers for fast packet processing. You can configure clusters and VMs to run DPDK workloads over SR-IOV networks.
Configuring a dedicated network for live migration
You can configure a dedicated Multus network for live migration. A dedicated network minimizes the effects of network saturation on tenant workloads during live migration.
Accessing a virtual machine by using the cluster FQDN
You can access a VM that is attached to a secondary network interface from outside the cluster by using its fully qualified domain name (FQDN).
Configuring and viewing IP addresses
You can configure an IP address of a secondary network interface when you create a VM. The IP address is provisioned with cloud-init. You can view the IP address of a VM by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console or the command line. The network information is collected by the QEMU guest agent.

8.1.4. Integrating with OpenShift Service Mesh

Connecting a virtual machine to a service mesh
OpenShift Virtualization is integrated with OpenShift Service Mesh. You can monitor, visualize, and control traffic between pods and virtual machines.

8.1.5. Managing MAC address pools

Managing MAC address pools for network interfaces
The KubeMacPool component allocates MAC addresses for VM network interfaces from a shared MAC address pool. This ensures that each network interface is assigned a unique MAC address. A virtual machine instance created from that VM retains the assigned MAC address across reboots.

8.1.6. Configuring SSH access

Configuring SSH access to virtual machines

You can configure SSH access to VMs by using the following methods:

  • virtctl ssh command

    You create an SSH key pair, add the public key to a VM, and connect to the VM by running the virtctl ssh command with the private key.

    You can add public SSH keys to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 9 VMs at runtime or at first boot to VMs with guest operating systems that can be configured by using a cloud-init data source.

  • virtctl port-forward command

    You add the virtctl port-foward command to your .ssh/config file and connect to the VM by using OpenSSH.

  • Service

    You create a service, associate the service with the VM, and connect to the IP address and port exposed by the service.

  • Secondary network

    You configure a secondary network, attach a VM to the secondary network interface, and connect to its allocated IP address.

8.2. Connecting a virtual machine to the default pod network

You can connect a virtual machine to the default internal pod network by configuring its network interface to use the masquerade binding mode.

Note

Traffic passing through network interfaces to the default pod network is interrupted during live migration.

8.2.1. Configuring masquerade mode from the command line

You can use masquerade mode to hide a virtual machine’s outgoing traffic behind the pod IP address. Masquerade mode uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to connect virtual machines to the pod network backend through a Linux bridge.

Enable masquerade mode and allow traffic to enter the virtual machine by editing your virtual machine configuration file.

Prerequisites

  • The virtual machine must be configured to use DHCP to acquire IPv4 addresses.

Procedure

  1. Edit the interfaces spec of your virtual machine configuration file:

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: example-vm
    spec:
      template:
        spec:
          domain:
            devices:
              interfaces:
                - name: default
                  masquerade: {} 1
                  ports: 2
                    - port: 80
    # ...
          networks:
          - name: default
            pod: {}
    1
    Connect using masquerade mode.
    2
    Optional: List the ports that you want to expose from the virtual machine, each specified by the port field. The port value must be a number between 0 and 65536. When the ports array is not used, all ports in the valid range are open to incoming traffic. In this example, incoming traffic is allowed on port 80.
    Note

    Ports 49152 and 49153 are reserved for use by the libvirt platform and all other incoming traffic to these ports is dropped.

  2. Create the virtual machine:

    $ oc create -f <vm-name>.yaml

8.2.2. Configuring masquerade mode with dual-stack (IPv4 and IPv6)

You can configure a new virtual machine (VM) to use both IPv6 and IPv4 on the default pod network by using cloud-init.

The Network.pod.vmIPv6NetworkCIDR field in the virtual machine instance configuration determines the static IPv6 address of the VM and the gateway IP address. These are used by the virt-launcher pod to route IPv6 traffic to the virtual machine and are not used externally. The Network.pod.vmIPv6NetworkCIDR field specifies an IPv6 address block in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation. The default value is fd10:0:2::2/120. You can edit this value based on your network requirements.

When the virtual machine is running, incoming and outgoing traffic for the virtual machine is routed to both the IPv4 address and the unique IPv6 address of the virt-launcher pod. The virt-launcher pod then routes the IPv4 traffic to the DHCP address of the virtual machine, and the IPv6 traffic to the statically set IPv6 address of the virtual machine.

Prerequisites

  • The OpenShift Container Platform cluster must use the OVN-Kubernetes Container Network Interface (CNI) network plugin configured for dual-stack.

Procedure

  1. In a new virtual machine configuration, include an interface with masquerade and configure the IPv6 address and default gateway by using cloud-init.

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: example-vm-ipv6
    spec:
      template:
        spec:
          domain:
            devices:
              interfaces:
                - name: default
                  masquerade: {} 1
                  ports:
                    - port: 80 2
    # ...
          networks:
          - name: default
            pod: {}
          volumes:
          - cloudInitNoCloud:
              networkData: |
                version: 2
                ethernets:
                  eth0:
                    dhcp4: true
                    addresses: [ fd10:0:2::2/120 ] 3
                    gateway6: fd10:0:2::1 4
    1
    Connect using masquerade mode.
    2
    Allows incoming traffic on port 80 to the virtual machine.
    3
    The static IPv6 address as determined by the Network.pod.vmIPv6NetworkCIDR field in the virtual machine instance configuration. The default value is fd10:0:2::2/120.
    4
    The gateway IP address as determined by the Network.pod.vmIPv6NetworkCIDR field in the virtual machine instance configuration. The default value is fd10:0:2::1.
  2. Create the virtual machine in the namespace:

    $ oc create -f example-vm-ipv6.yaml

Verification

  • To verify that IPv6 has been configured, start the virtual machine and view the interface status of the virtual machine instance to ensure it has an IPv6 address:
$ oc get vmi <vmi-name> -o jsonpath="{.status.interfaces[*].ipAddresses}"

8.2.3. About jumbo frames support

When using the OVN-Kubernetes CNI plugin, you can send unfragmented jumbo frame packets between two virtual machines (VMs) that are connected on the default pod network. Jumbo frames have a maximum transmission unit (MTU) value greater than 1500 bytes.

The VM automatically gets the MTU value of the cluster network, set by the cluster administrator, in one of the following ways:

  • libvirt: If the guest OS has the latest version of the VirtIO driver that can interpret incoming data via a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) config register in the emulated device.
  • DHCP: If the guest DHCP client can read the MTU value from the DHCP server response.
Note

For Windows VMs that do not have a VirtIO driver, you must set the MTU manually by using netsh or a similar tool. This is because the Windows DHCP client does not read the MTU value.

8.2.4. Additional resources

8.3. Exposing a virtual machine by using a service

You can expose a virtual machine within the cluster or outside the cluster by creating a Service object.

8.3.1. About services

A Kubernetes service exposes network access for clients to an application running on a set of pods. Services offer abstraction, load balancing, and, in the case of the NodePort and LoadBalancer types, exposure to the outside world.

ClusterIP
Exposes the service on an internal IP address and as a DNS name to other applications within the cluster. A single service can map to multiple virtual machines. When a client tries to connect to the service, the client’s request is load balanced among available backends. ClusterIP is the default service type.
NodePort
Exposes the service on the same port of each selected node in the cluster. NodePort makes a port accessible from outside the cluster, as long as the node itself is externally accessible to the client.
LoadBalancer
Creates an external load balancer in the current cloud (if supported) and assigns a fixed, external IP address to the service.
Note

For on-premise clusters, you can configure a load-balancing service by deploying the MetalLB Operator.

8.3.2. Dual-stack support

If IPv4 and IPv6 dual-stack networking is enabled for your cluster, you can create a service that uses IPv4, IPv6, or both, by defining the spec.ipFamilyPolicy and the spec.ipFamilies fields in the Service object.

The spec.ipFamilyPolicy field can be set to one of the following values:

SingleStack
The control plane assigns a cluster IP address for the service based on the first configured service cluster IP range.
PreferDualStack
The control plane assigns both IPv4 and IPv6 cluster IP addresses for the service on clusters that have dual-stack configured.
RequireDualStack
This option fails for clusters that do not have dual-stack networking enabled. For clusters that have dual-stack configured, the behavior is the same as when the value is set to PreferDualStack. The control plane allocates cluster IP addresses from both IPv4 and IPv6 address ranges.

You can define which IP family to use for single-stack or define the order of IP families for dual-stack by setting the spec.ipFamilies field to one of the following array values:

  • [IPv4]
  • [IPv6]
  • [IPv4, IPv6]
  • [IPv6, IPv4]

8.3.3. Creating a service by using the command line

You can create a service and associate it with a virtual machine (VM) by using the command line.

Prerequisites

  • You configured the cluster network to support the service.

Procedure

  1. Edit the VirtualMachine manifest to add the label for service creation:

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: example-vm
      namespace: example-namespace
    spec:
      running: false
      template:
        metadata:
          labels:
            special: key 1
    # ...
    1
    Add special: key to the spec.template.metadata.labels stanza.
    Note

    Labels on a virtual machine are passed through to the pod. The special: key label must match the label in the spec.selector attribute of the Service manifest.

  2. Save the VirtualMachine manifest file to apply your changes.
  3. Create a Service manifest to expose the VM:

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Service
    metadata:
      name: example-service
      namespace: example-namespace
    spec:
    # ...
      selector:
        special: key 1
      type: NodePort 2
      ports: 3
        protocol: TCP
        port: 80
        targetPort: 9376
        nodePort: 30000
    1
    Specify the label that you added to the spec.template.metadata.labels stanza of the VirtualMachine manifest.
    2
    Specify ClusterIP, NodePort, or LoadBalancer.
    3
    Specifies a collection of network ports and protocols that you want to expose from the virtual machine.
  4. Save the Service manifest file.
  5. Create the service by running the following command:

    $ oc create -f example-service.yaml
  6. Restart the VM to apply the changes.

Verification

  • Query the Service object to verify that it is available:

    $ oc get service -n example-namespace

8.3.4. Additional resources

8.4. Accessing a virtual machine by using its internal FQDN

You can access a virtual machine (VM) that is connected to the default internal pod network on a stable fully qualified domain name (FQDN) by using headless services.

A Kubernetes headless service is a form of service that does not allocate a cluster IP address to represent a set of pods. Instead of providing a single virtual IP address for the service, a headless service creates a DNS record for each pod associated with the service. You can expose a VM through its FQDN without having to expose a specific TCP or UDP port.

Important

If you created a VM by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console, you can find its internal FQDN listed in the Network tile on the Overview tab of the VirtualMachine details page. For more information about connecting to the VM, see Connecting to a virtual machine by using its internal FQDN.

8.4.1. Creating a headless service in a project by using the CLI

To create a headless service in a namespace, add the clusterIP: None parameter to the service YAML definition.

Prerequisites

  • You have installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).

Procedure

  1. Create a Service manifest to expose the VM, such as the following example:

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Service
    metadata:
      name: mysubdomain 1
    spec:
      selector:
        expose: me 2
      clusterIP: None 3
      ports: 4
      - protocol: TCP
        port: 1234
        targetPort: 1234
    1
    The name of the service. This must match the spec.subdomain attribute in the VirtualMachine manifest file.
    2
    This service selector must match the expose:me label in the VirtualMachine manifest file.
    3
    Specifies a headless service.
    4
    The list of ports that are exposed by the service. You must define at least one port. This can be any arbitrary value as it does not affect the headless service.
  2. Save the Service manifest file.
  3. Create the service by running the following command:

    $ oc create -f headless_service.yaml

8.4.2. Mapping a virtual machine to a headless service by using the CLI

To connect to a virtual machine (VM) from within the cluster by using its internal fully qualified domain name (FQDN), you must first map the VM to a headless service. Set the spec.hostname and spec.subdomain parameters in the VM configuration file.

If a headless service exists with a name that matches the subdomain, a unique DNS A record is created for the VM in the form of <vm.spec.hostname>.<vm.spec.subdomain>.<vm.metadata.namespace>.svc.cluster.local.

Procedure

  1. Edit the VirtualMachine manifest to add the service selector label and subdomain by running the following command:

    $ oc edit vm <vm_name>

    Example VirtualMachine manifest file

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: vm-fedora
    spec:
      template:
        metadata:
          labels:
            expose: me 1
        spec:
          hostname: "myvm" 2
          subdomain: "mysubdomain" 3
    # ...

    1
    The expose:me label must match the spec.selector attribute of the Service manifest that you previously created.
    2
    If this attribute is not specified, the resulting DNS A record takes the form of <vm.metadata.name>.<vm.spec.subdomain>.<vm.metadata.namespace>.svc.cluster.local.
    3
    The spec.subdomain attribute must match the metadata.name value of the Service object.
  2. Save your changes and exit the editor.
  3. Restart the VM to apply the changes.

8.4.3. Connecting to a virtual machine by using its internal FQDN

You can connect to a virtual machine (VM) by using its internal fully qualified domain name (FQDN).

Prerequisites

  • You have installed the virtctl tool.
  • You have identified the internal FQDN of the VM from the web console or by mapping the VM to a headless service. The internal FQDN has the format <vm.spec.hostname>.<vm.spec.subdomain>.<vm.metadata.namespace>.svc.cluster.local.

Procedure

  1. Connect to the VM console by entering the following command:

    $ virtctl console vm-fedora
  2. To connect to the VM by using the requested FQDN, run the following command:

    $ ping myvm.mysubdomain.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local

    Example output

    PING myvm.mysubdomain.default.svc.cluster.local (10.244.0.57) 56(84) bytes of data.
    64 bytes from myvm.mysubdomain.default.svc.cluster.local (10.244.0.57): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.029 ms

    In the preceding example, the DNS entry for myvm.mysubdomain.default.svc.cluster.local points to 10.244.0.57, which is the cluster IP address that is currently assigned to the VM.

8.4.4. Additional resources

8.5. Connecting a virtual machine to a Linux bridge network

By default, OpenShift Virtualization is installed with a single, internal pod network.

You can create a Linux bridge network and attach a virtual machine (VM) to the network by performing the following steps:

  1. Create a Linux bridge node network configuration policy (NNCP).
  2. Create a Linux bridge network attachment definition (NAD) by using the web console or the command line.
  3. Configure the VM to recognize the NAD by using the web console or the command line.

8.5.1. Creating a Linux bridge NNCP

You can create a NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy (NNCP) manifest for a Linux bridge network.

Prerequisites

  • You have installed the Kubernetes NMState Operator.

Procedure

  • Create the NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy manifest. This example includes sample values that you must replace with your own information.

    apiVersion: nmstate.io/v1
    kind: NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy
    metadata:
      name: br1-eth1-policy 1
    spec:
      desiredState:
        interfaces:
          - name: br1 2
            description: Linux bridge with eth1 as a port 3
            type: linux-bridge 4
            state: up 5
            ipv4:
              enabled: false 6
            bridge:
              options:
                stp:
                  enabled: false 7
              port:
                - name: eth1 8
    1
    Name of the policy.
    2
    Name of the interface.
    3
    Optional: Human-readable description of the interface.
    4
    The type of interface. This example creates a bridge.
    5
    The requested state for the interface after creation.
    6
    Disables IPv4 in this example.
    7
    Disables STP in this example.
    8
    The node NIC to which the bridge is attached.

8.5.2. Creating a Linux bridge NAD

You can create a Linux bridge network attachment definition (NAD) by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console or command line.

8.5.2.1. Creating a Linux bridge NAD by using the web console

You can create a network attachment definition (NAD) to provide layer-2 networking to pods and virtual machines by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console.

A Linux bridge network attachment definition is the most efficient method for connecting a virtual machine to a VLAN.

Warning

Configuring IP address management (IPAM) in a network attachment definition for virtual machines is not supported.

Procedure

  1. In the web console, click Networking NetworkAttachmentDefinitions.
  2. Click Create Network Attachment Definition.

    Note

    The network attachment definition must be in the same namespace as the pod or virtual machine.

  3. Enter a unique Name and optional Description.
  4. Select CNV Linux bridge from the Network Type list.
  5. Enter the name of the bridge in the Bridge Name field.
  6. Optional: If the resource has VLAN IDs configured, enter the ID numbers in the VLAN Tag Number field.
  7. Optional: Select MAC Spoof Check to enable MAC spoof filtering. This feature provides security against a MAC spoofing attack by allowing only a single MAC address to exit the pod.
  8. Click Create.

8.5.2.2. Creating a Linux bridge NAD by using the command line

You can create a network attachment definition (NAD) to provide layer-2 networking to pods and virtual machines (VMs) by using the command line.

The NAD and the VM must be in the same namespace.

Warning

Configuring IP address management (IPAM) in a network attachment definition for virtual machines is not supported.

Prerequisites

  • The node must support nftables and the nft binary must be deployed to enable MAC spoof check.

Procedure

  1. Add the VM to the NetworkAttachmentDefinition configuration, as in the following example:

    apiVersion: "k8s.cni.cncf.io/v1"
    kind: NetworkAttachmentDefinition
    metadata:
      name: bridge-network 1
      annotations:
        k8s.v1.cni.cncf.io/resourceName: bridge.network.kubevirt.io/bridge-interface 2
    spec:
      config: |
        {
          "cniVersion": "0.3.1",
          "name": "bridge-network", 3
          "type": "bridge", 4
          "bridge": "bridge-interface", 5
          "macspoofchk": false, 6
          "vlan": 100, 7
          "disableContainerInterface": true,
          "preserveDefaultVlan": false 8
        }
    1
    The name for the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.
    2
    Optional: Annotation key-value pair for node selection, where bridge-interface must match the name of a bridge configured on some nodes. If you add this annotation to your network attachment definition, your virtual machine instances will only run on the nodes that have the bridge-interface bridge connected.
    3
    The name for the configuration. It is recommended to match the configuration name to the name value of the network attachment definition.
    4
    The actual name of the Container Network Interface (CNI) plugin that provides the network for this network attachment definition. Do not change this field unless you want to use a different CNI.
    5
    The name of the Linux bridge configured on the node.
    6
    Optional: A flag to enable the MAC spoof check. When set to true, you cannot change the MAC address of the pod or guest interface. This attribute allows only a single MAC address to exit the pod, which provides security against a MAC spoofing attack.
    7
    Optional: The VLAN tag. No additional VLAN configuration is required on the node network configuration policy.
    8
    Optional: Indicates whether the VM connects to the bridge through the default VLAN. The default value is true.
    Note

    A Linux bridge network attachment definition is the most efficient method for connecting a virtual machine to a VLAN.

  2. Create the network attachment definition:

    $ oc create -f network-attachment-definition.yaml 1
    1
    Where network-attachment-definition.yaml is the file name of the network attachment definition manifest.

Verification

  • Verify that the network attachment definition was created by running the following command:

    $ oc get network-attachment-definition bridge-network

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: example-vm
    spec:
      template:
        spec:
          domain:
            devices:
              interfaces:
                - bridge: {}
                  name: bridge-net 1
    # ...
          networks:
            - name: bridge-net 2
              multus:
                networkName: a-bridge-network 3

  3. Optional: If you edited a running virtual machine, you must restart it for the changes to take effect.

8.6. Connecting a virtual machine to an SR-IOV network

You can connect a virtual machine (VM) to a Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) network by performing the following steps:

8.6.1. Configuring SR-IOV network devices

The SR-IOV Network Operator adds the SriovNetworkNodePolicy.sriovnetwork.openshift.io CustomResourceDefinition to OpenShift Container Platform. You can configure an SR-IOV network device by creating a SriovNetworkNodePolicy custom resource (CR).

Note

When applying the configuration specified in a SriovNetworkNodePolicy object, the SR-IOV Operator might drain the nodes, and in some cases, reboot nodes. Reboot only happens in the following cases:

  • With Mellanox NICs (mlx5 driver) a node reboot happens every time the number of virtual functions (VFs) increase on a physical function (PF).
  • With Intel NICs, a reboot only happens if the kernel parameters do not include intel_iommu=on and iommu=pt.

It might take several minutes for a configuration change to apply.

Prerequisites

  • You installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.
  • You have installed the SR-IOV Network Operator.
  • You have enough available nodes in your cluster to handle the evicted workload from drained nodes.
  • You have not selected any control plane nodes for SR-IOV network device configuration.

Procedure

  1. Create an SriovNetworkNodePolicy object, and then save the YAML in the <name>-sriov-node-network.yaml file. Replace <name> with the name for this configuration.

    apiVersion: sriovnetwork.openshift.io/v1
    kind: SriovNetworkNodePolicy
    metadata:
      name: <name> 1
      namespace: openshift-sriov-network-operator 2
    spec:
      resourceName: <sriov_resource_name> 3
      nodeSelector:
        feature.node.kubernetes.io/network-sriov.capable: "true" 4
      priority: <priority> 5
      mtu: <mtu> 6
      numVfs: <num> 7
      nicSelector: 8
        vendor: "<vendor_code>" 9
        deviceID: "<device_id>" 10
        pfNames: ["<pf_name>", ...] 11
        rootDevices: ["<pci_bus_id>", "..."] 12
      deviceType: vfio-pci 13
      isRdma: false 14
    1
    Specify a name for the CR object.
    2
    Specify the namespace where the SR-IOV Operator is installed.
    3
    Specify the resource name of the SR-IOV device plugin. You can create multiple SriovNetworkNodePolicy objects for a resource name.
    4
    Specify the node selector to select which nodes are configured. Only SR-IOV network devices on selected nodes are configured. The SR-IOV Container Network Interface (CNI) plugin and device plugin are deployed only on selected nodes.
    5
    Optional: Specify an integer value between 0 and 99. A smaller number gets higher priority, so a priority of 10 is higher than a priority of 99. The default value is 99.
    6
    Optional: Specify a value for the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the virtual function. The maximum MTU value can vary for different NIC models.
    7
    Specify the number of the virtual functions (VF) to create for the SR-IOV physical network device. For an Intel network interface controller (NIC), the number of VFs cannot be larger than the total VFs supported by the device. For a Mellanox NIC, the number of VFs cannot be larger than 127.
    8
    The nicSelector mapping selects the Ethernet device for the Operator to configure. You do not need to specify values for all the parameters. It is recommended to identify the Ethernet adapter with enough precision to minimize the possibility of selecting an Ethernet device unintentionally. If you specify rootDevices, you must also specify a value for vendor, deviceID, or pfNames. If you specify both pfNames and rootDevices at the same time, ensure that they point to an identical device.
    9
    Optional: Specify the vendor hex code of the SR-IOV network device. The only allowed values are either 8086 or 15b3.
    10
    Optional: Specify the device hex code of SR-IOV network device. The only allowed values are 158b, 1015, 1017.
    11
    Optional: The parameter accepts an array of one or more physical function (PF) names for the Ethernet device.
    12
    The parameter accepts an array of one or more PCI bus addresses for the physical function of the Ethernet device. Provide the address in the following format: 0000:02:00.1.
    13
    The vfio-pci driver type is required for virtual functions in OpenShift Virtualization.
    14
    Optional: Specify whether to enable remote direct memory access (RDMA) mode. For a Mellanox card, set isRdma to false. The default value is false.
    Note

    If isRDMA flag is set to true, you can continue to use the RDMA enabled VF as a normal network device. A device can be used in either mode.

  2. Optional: Label the SR-IOV capable cluster nodes with SriovNetworkNodePolicy.Spec.NodeSelector if they are not already labeled. For more information about labeling nodes, see "Understanding how to update labels on nodes".
  3. Create the SriovNetworkNodePolicy object:

    $ oc create -f <name>-sriov-node-network.yaml

    where <name> specifies the name for this configuration.

    After applying the configuration update, all the pods in sriov-network-operator namespace transition to the Running status.

  4. To verify that the SR-IOV network device is configured, enter the following command. Replace <node_name> with the name of a node with the SR-IOV network device that you just configured.

    $ oc get sriovnetworknodestates -n openshift-sriov-network-operator <node_name> -o jsonpath='{.status.syncStatus}'

8.6.2. Configuring SR-IOV additional network

You can configure an additional network that uses SR-IOV hardware by creating an SriovNetwork object.

When you create an SriovNetwork object, the SR-IOV Network Operator automatically creates a NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.

Note

Do not modify or delete an SriovNetwork object if it is attached to pods or virtual machines in a running state.

Prerequisites

  • Install the OpenShift CLI (oc).
  • Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

Procedure

  1. Create the following SriovNetwork object, and then save the YAML in the <name>-sriov-network.yaml file. Replace <name> with a name for this additional network.
apiVersion: sriovnetwork.openshift.io/v1
kind: SriovNetwork
metadata:
  name: <name> 1
  namespace: openshift-sriov-network-operator 2
spec:
  resourceName: <sriov_resource_name> 3
  networkNamespace: <target_namespace> 4
  vlan: <vlan> 5
  spoofChk: "<spoof_check>" 6
  linkState: <link_state> 7
  maxTxRate: <max_tx_rate> 8
  minTxRate: <min_rx_rate> 9
  vlanQoS: <vlan_qos> 10
  trust: "<trust_vf>" 11
  capabilities: <capabilities> 12
1
Replace <name> with a name for the object. The SR-IOV Network Operator creates a NetworkAttachmentDefinition object with same name.
2
Specify the namespace where the SR-IOV Network Operator is installed.
3
Replace <sriov_resource_name> with the value for the .spec.resourceName parameter from the SriovNetworkNodePolicy object that defines the SR-IOV hardware for this additional network.
4
Replace <target_namespace> with the target namespace for the SriovNetwork. Only pods or virtual machines in the target namespace can attach to the SriovNetwork.
5
Optional: Replace <vlan> with a Virtual LAN (VLAN) ID for the additional network. The integer value must be from 0 to 4095. The default value is 0.
6
Optional: Replace <spoof_check> with the spoof check mode of the VF. The allowed values are the strings "on" and "off".
Important

You must enclose the value you specify in quotes or the CR is rejected by the SR-IOV Network Operator.

7
Optional: Replace <link_state> with the link state of virtual function (VF). Allowed value are enable, disable and auto.
8
Optional: Replace <max_tx_rate> with a maximum transmission rate, in Mbps, for the VF.
9
Optional: Replace <min_tx_rate> with a minimum transmission rate, in Mbps, for the VF. This value should always be less than or equal to Maximum transmission rate.
Note

Intel NICs do not support the minTxRate parameter. For more information, see BZ#1772847.

10
Optional: Replace <vlan_qos> with an IEEE 802.1p priority level for the VF. The default value is 0.
11
Optional: Replace <trust_vf> with the trust mode of the VF. The allowed values are the strings "on" and "off".
Important

You must enclose the value you specify in quotes or the CR is rejected by the SR-IOV Network Operator.

12
Optional: Replace <capabilities> with the capabilities to configure for this network.
  1. To create the object, enter the following command. Replace <name> with a name for this additional network.

    $ oc create -f <name>-sriov-network.yaml
  2. Optional: To confirm that the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object associated with the SriovNetwork object that you created in the previous step exists, enter the following command. Replace <namespace> with the namespace you specified in the SriovNetwork object.

    $ oc get net-attach-def -n <namespace>

8.6.3. Connecting a virtual machine to an SR-IOV network by using the command line

You can connect the virtual machine (VM) to the SR-IOV network by including the network details in the VM configuration.

Procedure

  1. Add the SR-IOV network details to the spec.domain.devices.interfaces and spec.networks stanzas of the VM configuration as in the following example:

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: example-vm
    spec:
      domain:
        devices:
          interfaces:
          - name: nic1 1
            sriov: {}
      networks:
      - name: nic1 2
        multus:
            networkName: sriov-network 3
    # ...
    1
    Specify a unique name for the SR-IOV interface.
    2
    Specify the name of the SR-IOV interface. This must be the same as the interfaces.name that you defined earlier.
    3
    Specify the name of the SR-IOV network attachment definition.
  2. Apply the virtual machine configuration:

    $ oc apply -f <vm_sriov>.yaml 1
    1
    The name of the virtual machine YAML file.

8.6.4. Connecting a VM to an SR-IOV network by using the web console

You can connect a VM to the SR-IOV network by including the network details in the VM configuration.

Prerequisites

  • You must create a network attachment definition for the network.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to Virtualization VirtualMachines.
  2. Click a VM to view the VirtualMachine details page.
  3. On the Configuration tab, click the Network interfaces tab.
  4. Click Add network interface.
  5. Enter the interface name.

  10. Restart or live-migrate the VM to apply the changes.

8.6.5. Additional resources

8.7. Using DPDK with SR-IOV

The Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) provides a set of libraries and drivers for fast packet processing.

You can configure clusters and virtual machines (VMs) to run DPDK workloads over SR-IOV networks.

8.7.1. Configuring a cluster for DPDK workloads

You can configure an OpenShift Container Platform cluster to run Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK) workloads for improved network performance.

Prerequisites

  • You have access to the cluster as a user with cluster-admin permissions.
  • You have installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).
  • You have installed the SR-IOV Network Operator.
  • You have installed the Node Tuning Operator.

Procedure

  1. Map your compute nodes topology to determine which Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) CPUs are isolated for DPDK applications and which ones are reserved for the operating system (OS).
  2. Label a subset of the compute nodes with a custom role; for example, worker-dpdk:

    $ oc label node <node_name> node-role.kubernetes.io/worker-dpdk=""
  3. Create a new MachineConfigPool manifest that contains the worker-dpdk label in the spec.machineConfigSelector object:

    Example MachineConfigPool manifest

    apiVersion: machineconfiguration.openshift.io/v1
    kind: MachineConfigPool
    metadata:
      name: worker-dpdk
      labels:
        machineconfiguration.openshift.io/role: worker-dpdk
    spec:
      machineConfigSelector:
        matchExpressions:
          - key: machineconfiguration.openshift.io/role
            operator: In
            values:
              - worker
              - worker-dpdk
      nodeSelector:
        matchLabels:
          node-role.kubernetes.io/worker-dpdk: ""

  4. Create a PerformanceProfile manifest that applies to the labeled nodes and the machine config pool that you created in the previous steps. The performance profile specifies the CPUs that are isolated for DPDK applications and the CPUs that are reserved for house keeping.

    Example PerformanceProfile manifest

    apiVersion: performance.openshift.io/v2
    kind: PerformanceProfile
    metadata:
      name: profile-1
    spec:
      cpu:
        isolated: 4-39,44-79
        reserved: 0-3,40-43
      globallyDisableIrqLoadBalancing: true
      hugepages:
        defaultHugepagesSize: 1G
        pages:
        - count: 8
          node: 0
          size: 1G
      net:
        userLevelNetworking: true
      nodeSelector:
        node-role.kubernetes.io/worker-dpdk: ""
      numa:
        topologyPolicy: single-numa-node

    Note

    The compute nodes automatically restart after you apply the MachineConfigPool and PerformanceProfile manifests.

  5. Retrieve the name of the generated RuntimeClass resource from the status.runtimeClass field of the PerformanceProfile object:

    $ oc get performanceprofiles.performance.openshift.io profile-1 -o=jsonpath='{.status.runtimeClass}{"\n"}'
  6. Set the previously obtained RuntimeClass name as the default container runtime class for the virt-launcher pods by editing the HyperConverged custom resource (CR):

    $ oc patch hyperconverged kubevirt-hyperconverged -n openshift-cnv \
        --type='json' -p='[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/defaultRuntimeClass", "value":"<runtimeclass-name>"}]'
    Note

    Editing the HyperConverged CR changes a global setting that affects all VMs that are created after the change is applied.

  7. If your DPDK-enabled compute nodes use Simultaneous multithreading (SMT), enable the AlignCPUs enabler by editing the HyperConverged CR:

    $ oc patch hyperconverged kubevirt-hyperconverged -n openshift-cnv \
        --type='json' -p='[{"op": "replace", "path": "/spec/featureGates/alignCPUs", "value": true}]'
    Note

    Enabling AlignCPUs allows OpenShift Virtualization to request up to two additional dedicated CPUs to bring the total CPU count to an even parity when using emulator thread isolation.

  8. Create an SriovNetworkNodePolicy object with the spec.deviceType field set to vfio-pci:

    Example SriovNetworkNodePolicy manifest

    apiVersion: sriovnetwork.openshift.io/v1
    kind: SriovNetworkNodePolicy
    metadata:
      name: policy-1
      namespace: openshift-sriov-network-operator
    spec:
      resourceName: intel_nics_dpdk
      deviceType: vfio-pci
      mtu: 9000
      numVfs: 4
      priority: 99
      nicSelector:
        vendor: "8086"
        deviceID: "1572"
        pfNames:
          - eno3
        rootDevices:
          - "0000:19:00.2"
      nodeSelector:
        feature.node.kubernetes.io/network-sriov.capable: "true"

8.7.2. Configuring a project for DPDK workloads

You can configure the project to run DPDK workloads on SR-IOV hardware.

Prerequisites

  • Your cluster is configured to run DPDK workloads.

Procedure

  1. Create a namespace for your DPDK applications:

    $ oc create ns dpdk-checkup-ns
  2. Create an SriovNetwork object that references the SriovNetworkNodePolicy object. When you create an SriovNetwork object, the SR-IOV Network Operator automatically creates a NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.

    Example SriovNetwork manifest

    apiVersion: sriovnetwork.openshift.io/v1
    kind: SriovNetwork
    metadata:
      name: dpdk-sriovnetwork
      namespace: openshift-sriov-network-operator
    spec:
      ipam: |
        {
          "type": "host-local",
          "subnet": "10.56.217.0/24",
          "rangeStart": "10.56.217.171",
          "rangeEnd": "10.56.217.181",
          "routes": [{
            "dst": "0.0.0.0/0"
          }],
          "gateway": "10.56.217.1"
        }
      networkNamespace: dpdk-checkup-ns 1
      resourceName: intel_nics_dpdk 2
      spoofChk: "off"
      trust: "on"
      vlan: 1019

    1
    The namespace where the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object is deployed.
    2
    The value of the spec.resourceName attribute of the SriovNetworkNodePolicy object that was created when configuring the cluster for DPDK workloads.
  3. Optional: Run the virtual machine latency checkup to verify that the network is properly configured.
  4. Optional: Run the DPDK checkup to verify that the namespace is ready for DPDK workloads.

8.7.3. Configuring a virtual machine for DPDK workloads

You can run Data Packet Development Kit (DPDK) workloads on virtual machines (VMs) to achieve lower latency and higher throughput for faster packet processing in the user space. DPDK uses the SR-IOV network for hardware-based I/O sharing.

Prerequisites

  • Your cluster is configured to run DPDK workloads.
  • You have created and configured the project in which the VM will run.

Procedure

  1. Edit the VirtualMachine manifest to include information about the SR-IOV network interface, CPU topology, CRI-O annotations, and huge pages:

    Example VirtualMachine manifest

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:

  2. Save and exit the editor.
  3. Apply the VirtualMachine manifest:

    $ oc apply -f <file_name>.yaml
  4. Configure the guest operating system. The following example shows the configuration steps for RHEL 9 operating system:

    1. Configure huge pages by using the GRUB bootloader command-line interface. In the following example, 8 1G huge pages are specified.

      $ grubby --update-kernel=ALL --args="default_hugepagesz=1GB hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8"
    2. To achieve low-latency tuning by using the cpu-partitioning profile in the TuneD application, run the following commands:

      $ dnf install -y tuned-profiles-cpu-partitioning
      $ echo isolated_cores=2-9 > /etc/tuned/cpu-partitioning-variables.conf

      The first two CPUs (0 and 1) are set aside for house keeping tasks and the rest are isolated for the DPDK application.

      $ tuned-adm profile cpu-partitioning
    3. Override the SR-IOV NIC driver by using the driverctl device driver control utility:

      $ dnf install -y driverctl
      $ driverctl set-override 0000:07:00.0 vfio-pci
  5. Restart the VM to apply the changes.

8.8. Connecting a virtual machine to an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network

You can connect a virtual machine (VM) to an Open Virtual Network (OVN)-Kubernetes secondary network. OpenShift Virtualization supports the layer 2 and localnet topologies for OVN-Kubernetes.

  • A layer 2 topology connects workloads by a cluster-wide logical switch. The OVN-Kubernetes Container Network Interface (CNI) plug-in uses the Geneve (Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation) protocol to create an overlay network between nodes. You can use this overlay network to connect VMs on different nodes, without having to configure any additional physical networking infrastructure.
  • A localnet topology connects the secondary network to the physical underlay. This enables both east-west cluster traffic and access to services running outside the cluster, but it requires additional configuration of the underlying Open vSwitch (OVS) system on cluster nodes.
Note

An OVN-Kubernetes secondary network is compatible with the multi-network policy API which provides the MultiNetworkPolicy custom resource definition (CRD) to control traffic flow to and from VMs. You can use the ipBlock attribute to define network policy ingress and egress rules for specific CIDR blocks.

To configure an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network and attach a VM to that network, perform the following steps:

  1. Configure an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network by creating a network attachment definition (NAD).

    Note

    For localnet topology, you must configure an OVS bridge by creating a NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy object before creating the NAD.

  2. Connect the VM to the OVN-Kubernetes secondary network by adding the network details to the VM specification.

8.8.1. Creating an OVN-Kubernetes NAD

You can create an OVN-Kubernetes layer 2 or localnet network attachment definition (NAD) by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console or the CLI.

Note

Configuring IP address management (IPAM) in a network attachment definition for virtual machines is not supported.

8.8.1.1. Creating a NAD for layer 2 topology using the CLI

You can create a network attachment definition (NAD) which describes how to attach a pod to the layer 2 overlay network.

Prerequisites

  • You have access to the cluster as a user with cluster-admin privileges.
  • You have installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).

Procedure

  1. Create a NetworkAttachmentDefinition object:

    apiVersion: k8s.cni.cncf.io/v1
    kind: NetworkAttachmentDefinition
    metadata:
      name: l2-network
      namespace: my-namespace
    spec:
      config: |2
        {
                "cniVersion": "0.3.1", 1
                "name": "my-namespace-l2-network", 2
                "type": "ovn-k8s-cni-overlay", 3
                "topology":"layer2", 4
                "mtu": 1300, 5
                "netAttachDefName": "my-namespace/l2-network" 6
        }
    1
    The CNI specification version. The required value is 0.3.1.
    2
    The name of the network. This attribute is not namespaced. For example, you can have a network named l2-network referenced from two different NetworkAttachmentDefinition objects that exist in two different namespaces. This feature is useful to connect VMs in different namespaces.
    3
    The name of the CNI plug-in to be configured. The required value is ovn-k8s-cni-overlay.
    4
    The topological configuration for the network. The required value is layer2.
    5
    Optional: The maximum transmission unit (MTU) value. The default value is automatically set by the kernel.
    6
    The value of the namespace and name fields in the metadata stanza of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.
    Note

    The above example configures a cluster-wide overlay without a subnet defined. This means that the logical switch implementing the network only provides layer 2 communication. You must configure an IP address when you create the virtual machine by either setting a static IP address or by deploying a DHCP server on the network for a dynamic IP address.

  2. Apply the manifest:

    $ oc apply -f <filename>.yaml

8.8.1.2. Creating a NAD for localnet topology using the CLI

You can create a network attachment definition (NAD) which describes how to attach a pod to the underlying physical network.

Prerequisites

                "cniVersion": "0.3.1", 1
                "name": "localnet-network", 2
                "type": "ovn-k8s-cni-overlay", 3
                "topology": "localnet", 4
                "netAttachDefName": "default/localnet-network" 5
        }
    1
    The CNI specification version. The required value is 0.3.1.
    2
    The name of the network. This attribute must match the value of the spec.desiredState.ovn.bridge-mappings.localnet field of the NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy object that defines the OVS bridge mapping.
    3
    The name of the CNI plug-in to be configured. The required value is ovn-k8s-cni-overlay.
    4
    The topological configuration for the network. The required value is localnet.
    5
    The value of the namespace and name fields in the metadata stanza of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.

8.8.1.4. Creating a NAD for localnet topology using the web console

You can create a network attachment definition (NAD) to connect workloads to a physical network by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console.

Prerequisites

  • You have access to the cluster as a user with cluster-admin privileges.
  • Use nmstate to configure the localnet to OVS bridge mappings.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to Networking NetworkAttachmentDefinitions in the web console.
  2. Click Create Network Attachment Definition. The network attachment definition must be in the same namespace as the pod or virtual machine using it.
  3. Enter a unique Name and optional Description.
  4. Select OVN Kubernetes secondary localnet network from the Network Type list.
  5. Enter the name of your pre-configured localnet identifier in the Bridge mapping field.
  6. Optional: You can explicitly set MTU to the specified value. The default value is chosen by the kernel.
  7. Optional: Encapsulate the traffic in a VLAN. The default value is none.
  8. Click Create.

8.8.2. Attaching a virtual machine to the OVN-Kubernetes secondary network

You can attach a virtual machine (VM) to the OVN-Kubernetes secondary network interface by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console or the CLI.

8.8.2.1. Attaching a virtual machine to an OVN-Kubernetes secondary network using the CLI

You can connect a virtual machine (VM) to the OVN-Kubernetes secondary network by including the network details in the VM configuration.

Prerequisites

  • You have access to the cluster as a user with cluster-admin privileges.
  • You have installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).

Procedure

  1. Edit the VirtualMachine manifest to add the OVN-Kubernetes secondary network interface details, as in the following example:

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: vm-server
    spec:
      running: true
      template:
        spec:
          domain:
            devices:
              interfaces:
              - name: secondary 1
                bridge: {}
            resources:
              requests:
                memory: 1024Mi
          networks:
          - name: secondary  2
            multus:

    # ...
    1
    The name of the OVN-Kubernetes secondary interface.
    2
    The name of the network. This must match the value of the spec.template.spec.domain.devices.interfaces.name field.
    3
    The name of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.
  2. Apply the VirtualMachine manifest:

    $ oc apply -f <filename>.yaml
  3. Optional: If you edited a running virtual machine, you must restart it for the changes to take effect.

8.8.3. Additional resources

8.9. Hot plugging secondary network interfaces

You can add or remove secondary network interfaces without stopping your virtual machine (VM). OpenShift Virtualization supports hot plugging for secondary interfaces that use the VirtIO device driver.

Note

Hot unplugging is not supported for Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) interfaces.

8.9.1. VirtIO limitations

Each VirtIO interface uses one of the limited Peripheral Connect Interface (PCI) slots in the VM. There are a total of 32 slots available. The PCI slots are also used by other devices and must be reserved in advance, therefore slots might not be available on demand. OpenShift Virtualization reserves up to four slots for hot plugging interfaces. This includes any existing plugged network interfaces. For example, if your VM has two existing plugged interfaces, you can hot plug two more network interfaces.

Note

The actual number of slots available for hot plugging also depends on the machine type. For example, the default PCI topology for the q35 machine type supports hot plugging one additional PCIe device. For more information on PCI topology and hot plug support, see the libvirt documentation.

If you restart the VM after hot plugging an interface, that interface becomes part of the standard network interfaces.

8.9.2. Hot plugging a secondary network interface by using the CLI

Hot plug a secondary network interface to a virtual machine (VM) while the VM is running.

Prerequisites

  • A network attachment definition is configured in the same namespace as your VM.
  • You have installed the virtctl tool.
  • You have installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).

Procedure

  1. If the VM to which you want to hot plug the network interface is not running, start it by using the following command:

    $ virtctl start <vm_name> -n <namespace>
  2. Use the following command to add the new network interface to the running VM. Editing the VM specification adds the new network interface to the VM and virtual machine instance (VMI) configuration but does not attach it to the running VM.

    $ oc edit vm <vm_name>

    Example VM configuration

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: vm-fedora
    template:
      spec:
        domain:
          devices:
            interfaces:
            - name: defaultnetwork
              masquerade: {}
            # new interface
            - name: <secondary_nic> 1
              bridge: {}
        networks:
        - name: defaultnetwork
          pod: {}
        # new network
        - name: <secondary_nic> 2
          multus:
            networkName: <nad_name> 3
    # ...

    1
    Specifies the name of the new network interface.
    2
    Specifies the name of the network. This must be the same as the name of the new network interface that you defined in the template.spec.domain.devices.interfaces list.
    3
    Specifies the name of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.
  3. To attach the network interface to the running VM, live migrate the VM by running the following command:

    $ virtctl migrate <vm_name>

Verification

  1. Verify that the VM live migration is successful by using the following command:

    $ oc get VirtualMachineInstanceMigration -w

    Example output

    NAME                        PHASE             VMI
    kubevirt-migrate-vm-lj62q   Scheduling        vm-fedora
    kubevirt-migrate-vm-lj62q   Scheduled         vm-fedora

    kubevirt-migrate-vm-lj62q   TargetReady       vm-fedora
    kubevirt-migrate-vm-lj62q   Running           vm-fedora
    kubevirt-migrate-vm-lj62q   Succeeded         vm-fedora

  2. Verify that the new interface is added to the VM by checking the VMI status:

    $ oc get vmi vm-fedora -ojsonpath="{ @.status.interfaces }"

    Example output

    [
      {
        "infoSource": "domain, guest-agent",
        "interfaceName": "eth0",
        "ipAddress": "10.130.0.195",
        "ipAddresses": [
          "10.130.0.195",
          "fd02:0:0:3::43c"
        ],
        "mac": "52:54:00:0e:ab:25",
        "name": "default",
        "queueCount": 1
      },
      {
        "infoSource": "domain, guest-agent, multus-status",
        "interfaceName": "eth1",
        "mac": "02:d8:b8:00:00:2a",
        "name": "bridge-interface", 1
        "queueCount": 1
      }
    ]

    1
    The hot plugged interface appears in the VMI status.

8.9.3. Hot unplugging a secondary network interface by using the CLI

You can remove a secondary network interface from a running virtual machine (VM).

Note

Hot unplugging is not supported for Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) interfaces.

Prerequisites

  • Your VM must be running.
  • The VM must be created on a cluster running OpenShift Virtualization 4.14 or later.
  • The VM must have a bridge network interface attached.

Procedure

  1. Edit the VM specification to hot unplug a secondary network interface. Setting the interface state to absent detaches the network interface from the guest, but the interface still exists in the pod.

    $ oc edit vm <vm_name>

    Example VM configuration

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: vm-fedora
    template:
      spec:
        domain:
          devices:
            interfaces:
              - name: defaultnetwork
                masquerade: {}
              # set the interface state to absent
              - name: <secondary_nic>
                state: absent 1
                bridge: {}
        networks:
          - name: defaultnetwork
            pod: {}
          - name: <secondary_nic>
            multus:
              networkName: <nad_name>
    # ...

    1
    Set the interface state to absent to detach it from the running VM. Removing the interface details from the VM specification does not hot unplug the secondary network interface.
  2. Remove the interface from the pod by migrating the VM:

    $ virtctl migrate <vm_name>

8.10. Connecting a virtual machine to a service mesh

OpenShift Virtualization is now integrated with OpenShift Service Mesh. You can monitor, visualize, and control traffic between pods that run virtual machine workloads on the default pod network with IPv4.

8.10.1. Adding a virtual machine to a service mesh

To add a virtual machine (VM) workload to a service mesh, enable automatic sidecar injection in the VM configuration file by setting the sidecar.istio.io/inject annotation to true. Then expose your VM as a service to view your application in the mesh.

Important

To avoid port conflicts, do not use ports used by the Istio sidecar proxy. These include ports 15000, 15001, 15006, 15008, 15020, 15021, and 15090.

Prerequisites

  • You installed the Service Mesh Operators.
  • You created the Service Mesh control plane.
  • You added the VM project to the Service Mesh member roll.

Procedure

  1. Edit the VM configuration file to add the sidecar.istio.io/inject: "true" annotation:

    Example configuration file

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      labels:
        kubevirt.io/vm: vm-istio
      name: vm-istio
    spec:

            app: vm-istio 1
          annotations:
            sidecar.istio.io/inject: "true" 2
        spec:
          domain:
            devices:
              interfaces:
              - name: default
                masquerade: {} 3
              disks:
              - disk:
                  bus: virtio
                name: containerdisk
              - disk:
                  bus: virtio
                name: cloudinitdisk
            resources:
              requests:
                memory: 1024M
          networks:
          - name: default
            pod: {}
          terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 180
          volumes:
          - containerDisk:
              image: registry:5000/kubevirt/fedora-cloud-container-disk-demo:devel
            name: containerdisk

    1
    The key/value pair (label) that must be matched to the service selector attribute.
    2
    The annotation to enable automatic sidecar injection.
    3
    The binding method (masquerade mode) for use with the default pod network.
  2. Apply the VM configuration:

    $ oc apply -f <vm_name>.yaml 1
    1
    The name of the virtual machine YAML file.
  3. Create a Service object to expose your VM to the service mesh.

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Service
    metadata:
      name: vm-istio
    spec:
      selector:
        app: vm-istio 1
      ports:
        - port: 8080
          name: http
          protocol: TCP
    1
    The service selector that determines the set of pods targeted by a service. This attribute corresponds to the spec.metadata.labels field in the VM configuration file. In the above example, the Service object named vm-istio targets TCP port 8080 on any pod with the label app=vm-istio.
  4. Create the service:

    $ oc create -f <service_name>.yaml 1
    1
    The name of the service YAML file.

8.11. Configuring a dedicated network for live migration

You can configure a dedicated Multus network for live migration. A dedicated network minimizes the effects of network saturation on tenant workloads during live migration.

8.11.1. Configuring a dedicated secondary network for live migration

To configure a dedicated secondary network for live migration, you must first create a bridge network attachment definition (NAD) by using the CLI. Then, you add the name of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object to the HyperConverged custom resource (CR).

Prerequisites

  • You installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).
  • You logged in to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.
  • Each node has at least two Network Interface Cards (NICs).
  • The NICs for live migration are connected to the same VLAN.

Procedure

  1. Create a NetworkAttachmentDefinition manifest according to the following example:

    Example configuration file

    apiVersion: "k8s.cni.cncf.io/v1"
    kind: NetworkAttachmentDefinition
    metadata:
      name: my-secondary-network 1
      namespace: openshift-cnv 2
    spec:
      config: '{
        "cniVersion": "0.3.1",
        "name": "migration-bridge",
        "type": "macvlan",
        "master": "eth1", 3
        "mode": "bridge",
        "ipam": {
          "type": "whereabouts", 4
          "range": "10.200.5.0/24" 5
        }
      }'

    1
    Specify the name of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object.
    2 3
    Specify the name of the NIC to be used for live migration.
    4
    Specify the name of the CNI plugin that provides the network for the NAD.
    5
    Specify an IP address range for the secondary network. This range must not overlap the IP addresses of the main network.
  2. Open the HyperConverged CR in your default editor by running the following command:

    oc edit hyperconverged kubevirt-hyperconverged -n openshift-cnv
  3. Add the name of the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object to the spec.liveMigrationConfig stanza of the HyperConverged CR:

    Example HyperConverged manifest

    apiVersion: hco.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
    kind: HyperConverged
    metadata:
      name: kubevirt-hyperconverged
    spec:
      liveMigrationConfig:
        completionTimeoutPerGiB: 800
        network: <network> 1
        parallelMigrationsPerCluster: 5
        parallelOutboundMigrationsPerNode: 2
        progressTimeout: 150
    # ...

    1
    Specify the name of the Multus NetworkAttachmentDefinition object to be used for live migrations.
  4. Save your changes and exit the editor. The virt-handler pods restart and connect to the secondary network.

Verification

  • When the node that the virtual machine runs on is placed into maintenance mode, the VM automatically migrates to another node in the cluster. You can verify that the migration occurred over the secondary network and not the default pod network by checking the target IP address in the virtual machine instance (VMI) metadata.

    $ oc get vmi <vmi_name> -o jsonpath='{.status.migrationState.targetNodeAddress}'

8.11.2. Selecting a dedicated network by using the web console

You can select a dedicated network for live migration by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console.

Prerequisites

  • You configured a Multus network for live migration.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to Virtualization > Overview in the OpenShift Container Platform web console.
  2. Click the Settings tab and then click Live migration.
  3. Select the network from the Live migration network list.

8.11.3. Additional resources

You can view the IP address of a VM by using the OpenShift Container Platform web console or the command line. The network information is collected by the QEMU guest agent.

8.12.1. Configuring IP addresses for virtual machines

You can configure a static IP address when you create a virtual machine (VM) by using the web console or the command line.

You can configure a dynamic IP address when you create a VM by using the command line.

The IP address is provisioned with cloud-init.

8.12.1.1. Configuring an IP address when creating a virtual machine by using the command line

You can configure a static or dynamic IP address when you create a virtual machine (VM). The IP address is provisioned with cloud-init.

Note

If the VM is connected to the pod network, the pod network interface is the default route unless you update it.

Prerequisites

  • The virtual machine is connected to a secondary network.

8.13. Accessing a virtual machine by using its external FQDN

You can access a virtual machine (VM) that is attached to a secondary network interface from outside the cluster by using its fully qualified domain name (FQDN).

Important

Accessing a VM from outside the cluster by using its FQDN is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process.

For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope.

8.13.1. Configuring a DNS server for secondary networks

The Cluster Network Addons Operator (CNAO) deploys a Domain Name Server (DNS) server and monitoring components when you enable the deployKubeSecondaryDNS feature gate in the HyperConverged custom resource (CR).

Prerequisites

  • You installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).
  • You configured a load balancer for the cluster.
  • You logged in to the cluster with cluster-admin permissions.

Procedure

  1. Create a load balancer service to expose the DNS server outside the cluster by running the oc expose command according to the following example:

    $ oc expose -n openshift-cnv deployment/secondary-dns --name=dns-lb \
      --type=LoadBalancer --port=53 --target-port=5353 --protocol='UDP'
  2. Retrieve the external IP address by running the following command:

    $ oc get service -n openshift-cnv

    Example output

    NAME       TYPE             CLUSTER-IP     EXTERNAL-IP      PORT(S)          AGE
    dns-lb     LoadBalancer     172.30.27.5    10.46.41.94      53:31829/TCP     5s

  3. Edit the HyperConverged CR in your default editor by running the following command:

    $ oc edit hyperconverged kubevirt-hyperconverged -n openshift-cnv
  4. Enable the DNS server and monitoring components according to the following example:

    apiVersion: hco.kubevirt.io/v1beta1
    kind: HyperConverged
    metadata:
      name: kubevirt-hyperconverged
      namespace: openshift-cnv
    spec:
      featureGates:
        deployKubeSecondaryDNS: true
      kubeSecondaryDNSNameServerIP: "10.46.41.94" 1
    # ...
    1
    Specify the external IP address exposed by the load balancer service.
  5. Save the file and exit the editor.
  6. Retrieve the cluster FQDN by running the following command:

     $ oc get dnses.config.openshift.io cluster -o jsonpath='{.spec.baseDomain}'

    Example output

    openshift.example.com

  7. Point to the DNS server by using one of the following methods:

    • Add the kubeSecondaryDNSNameServerIP value to the resolv.conf file on your local machine.

      Note

      Editing the resolv.conf file overwrites existing DNS settings.

    • Add the kubeSecondaryDNSNameServerIP value and the cluster FQDN to the enterprise DNS server records. For example:

      vm.<FQDN>. IN NS ns.vm.<FQDN>.
      ns.vm.<FQDN>. IN A 10.46.41.94

8.13.2. Connecting to a VM on a secondary network by using the cluster FQDN

You can access a running virtual machine (VM) attached to a secondary network interface by using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the cluster.

Prerequisites

  • You installed the QEMU guest agent on the VM.
  • The IP address of the VM is public.
  • You configured the DNS server for secondary networks.
  • You retrieved the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the cluster.

Procedure

  1. Retrieve the network interface name from the VM configuration by running the following command:

    $ oc get vm -n <namespace> <vm_name> -o yaml

    Example output

    apiVersion: kubevirt.io/v1
    kind: VirtualMachine
    metadata:
      name: example-vm
      namespace: example-namespace
    spec:
      running: true
      template:
        spec:
          domain:
            devices:
              interfaces:
                - bridge: {}
                  name: example-nic
    # ...
          networks:
          - multus:
              networkName: bridge-conf
            name: example-nic 1

    1
    Note the name of the network interface.
  2. Connect to the VM by using the ssh command:

    $ ssh <user_name>@<interface_name>.<vm_name>.<namespace>.vm.<cluster_fqdn>

8.14. Managing MAC address pools for network interfaces

The KubeMacPool component allocates MAC addresses for virtual machine (VM) network interfaces from a shared MAC address pool. This ensures that each network interface is assigned a unique MAC address.

A virtual machine instance created from that VM retains the assigned MAC address across reboots.

Note

KubeMacPool does not handle virtual machine instances created independently from a virtual machine.

8.14.1. Managing KubeMacPool by using the command line

You can disable and re-enable KubeMacPool by using the command line.

KubeMacPool is enabled by default.

Procedure

  • To disable KubeMacPool in two namespaces, run the following command:

    $ oc label namespace <namespace1> <namespace2> mutatevirtualmachines.kubemacpool.io=ignore
  • To re-enable KubeMacPool in two namespaces, run the following command:

    $ oc label namespace <namespace1> <namespace2> mutatevirtualmachines.kubemacpool.io-
