In OVN the DHCP options are stored on a table called DHCP_Options
in the OVN Northbound database.
Let’s add a DHCP option to a Neutron port:
$ neutron port-update --extra-dhcp-opt opt_name='server-ip-address',opt_value='10.0.0.1' b4c3f265-369e-4bf5-8789-7caa9a1efb9c
Updated port: b4c3f265-369e-4bf5-8789-7caa9a1efb9c
To find that port in OVN we can use command below:
$ ovn-nbctl find Logical_Switch_Port name=b4c3f265-369e-4bf5-8789-7caa9a1efb9c
...
dhcpv4_options : 5f00d1a2-c57d-4d1f-83ea-09bf8be13288
dhcpv6_options : []
...
For DHCP, the columns that we care about are the dhcpv4_options
and dhcpv6_options
. These columns has the uuids of entries in the
DHCP_Options
table with the DHCP information for this port.
$ ovn-nbctl list DHCP_Options 5f00d1a2-c57d-4d1f-83ea-09bf8be13288
_uuid : 5f00d1a2-c57d-4d1f-83ea-09bf8be13288
cidr : "10.0.0.0/26"
external_ids : {"neutron:revision_number"="0", port_id="b4c3f265-369e-4bf5-8789-7caa9a1efb9c", subnet_id="5157ed8b-e7f1-4c56-b789-fa420098a687"}
options : {classless_static_route="{169.254.169.254/32,10.0.0.2, 0.0.0.0/0,10.0.0.1}", dns_server="{8.8.8.8}", domain_name="\"openstackgate.local\"", lease_time="43200", log_server="127.0.0.3", mtu="1442", router="10.0.0.1", server_id="10.0.0.1", server_mac="fa:16:3e:dc:57:22", tftp_server_address="10.0.0.1"}
Here you can see that the option tftp_server_address
has been set in
the options column. Note that, the tftp_server_address
option is
the OVN translated name for server-ip-address
(option 150). Take a
look at the table in this document to find out more about the supported
options and their counterpart names in OVN.
