Configuration - RHEL

Version

F5® OpenStack LBaaSv1 plugin v 9.0.1-final for OpenStack Mitaka.

Configure the F5® LBaaSv1 Plugin

  1. Configure the agent (/etc/neutron/f5-oslbaasv1-agent.ini).

    NOTE: You must at minimum set the iControl® address, username, and password for the BIG-IP®(s) you will be managing and identify if the BIG-IP® is internal or external (i.e., running within your stack or outside of it).

    # vi /etc/neutron/f5-oslbaasv1-agent.ini
...
#
f5_device_type = external
#
...
#
icontrol_hostname = 192.168.1.245
#
icontrol_username = admin
#
icontrol_password = admin
#
...

  2. Configure the Neutron service to use the F5® plugin.

    NOTE: In the service providers section, the f5.oslbaasv1driver entry will most likely be present, but commented out. Uncomment this line and comment out the HA proxy line to identify the F5® plugin as the lbaas service provider. Add :default to the end of the line as shown below to set F5 as the default LBaaS service provider.

    # vi /etc/neutron/neutron_lbaas.conf
...
[service providers]
service_provider=LOADBALANCER:F5:f5.oslbaasv1driver.drivers.plugin_driver.F5PluginDriver:default

  3. Restart the neutron-server service:

    # systemctl restart neutron-server

  4. Enable LBaaS on the Controller Node

    NOTE: This step may be necessary in Icehouse and Juno. It is not needed in Kilo.

    # vi local_settings.py
OPENSTACK_NEUTRON_NETWORK = { 'enable_lb': True, ...}"

  5. Restart the http service.

    # service httpd restart

  6. Start the agent.

    # service f5-oslbaasv1-agent start

TIP: Use the commands shown below to check if the agent is running.

# neutron agent-list
# neutron agent-show <agent_id>
