Networking-bgpvpn contains the bgpvpn_dashboard plugin for Horizon. It adds a BGPVPN Interconnections panel in the admin section. Admin users can handle BGPVPNs resources through this panel. The operations possible for admin users are:
listing BGPVPN
creating a BGPVPN
editing a BGPVPN
associating or disassociating a BGPVPN to network(s)
associating or disassociating a BGPVPN to router(s)
deleting a BGPVPN
For non admin users the plugin adds a BGPVPN Interconnections panel in the Project section under the Network subsection. The operations possible for non admin users are:
listing BGPVPN (display only name, type, networks and routers associations)
editing a BGPVPN (only the name)
associating or disassociating a BGPVPN to network(s)
associating or disassociating a BGPVPN to router(s)
Devstack will automatically configure Horizon to enable the Horizon plugin.
For others deployments we assume that Horizon and networking-bgpvpn are already installed. Their installation folders are respectively <horizon> and <networking-bgpvpn>.
Copy configuration file:
cp <networking-bgpvpn>/bgpvpn_dashboard/enabled/_[0-9]*.py <horizon>/openstack_dashboard/local/enabled/
Configure the policy file for BGPVPN dashboard in OpenStack Dashboard local_settings.py
.
<bgpvpn-dashboard-dir>
is a directory which contains configurations for
BGPVPN dashboard and the location varies across distributions or deployments.
<bgpvpn-dashboard-dir>
can be found with: dirname $(python -c 'import bgpvpn_dashboard as _; print _.__file__')
POLICY_FILES[' networking-bgpvpn'] = '<bgpvpn-dashboard-dir>/bgpvpn_dashboard/etc/bgpvpn-horizon.conf'
Note
If you do not configure POLICY_FILES
in your local_settings.py
,
you also need to define the default POLICY_FILES
in
local_settings.py
. If you use the example local_settings.py
file
from horizon, what you need is to uncomment POLICY_FILES
(which contains
the default values).
Restart the web server hosting Horizon.
The BGPVPN Interconnections panels will now be in your Horizon dashboard.
