ciena/spanneti repository overview

⁠Spanneti

Spans networks, creating a spaghetti of connections.

⁠Description

Spanneti listens for specially-tagged containers, and builds container networks based on those tags. It was specifically designed to set up VNF chains, so it currently supports point-to-point L2 links (on a single host, or between multiple hosts), and OLT setup (s-tag/c-tag interfaces for the currently-limited tag-forwarding of ONOS).

⁠Running

Deploy in a k8s cluster using the k8s deployment file. kubectl apply -f k8s.yml (You may want to pin the version)

⁠Configuration

Environment variables can be changed in the k8s deployment file.

• DNS_NAME - name of the dns entry to lookup for peer discovery
• HOST_INTERFACE_NAME - name of the interface on which to setup networking
