netops

NetOps

The netop pods enforce the QoS Profile for a slice. It uses Linux TC (Traffic Control) for the slice traffic classification.

Getting Started

Please refer to our documentation on:

• Installing KubeSlice on cloud clusters.
• Installing KubeSlice on kind clusters.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure the following prerequisites are met:

• Docker is installed and running on your local machine.
• A running kind cluster.
• kubectl is installed and configured.
• You have prepared the environment to install kubeslice-controller on the controller cluster and worker-operator on the worker cluster. For more information, see Prerequisites.

Local Build and Update

Latest Docker Hub Image

docker pull aveshasystems/netops:latest

Setting up Your Helm Repo

If you have not added avesha helm repo yet, add it.

helm repo add avesha https://kubeslice.github.io/charts/

Upgrade the avesha helm repo.

helm repo update

Build docker images

1. Clone the latest version of netops from the master branch.

git clone https://github.com/kubeslice/netops.git
cd netops

1. Adjust the VERSION variable in the Makefile to change the docker tag to be built. Image is set as docker.io/aveshasystems/netops:$(VERSION) in the Makefile. Change this if required.

make docker-build

Running Locally on Kind Clusters

1. You can load the netops image on your kind cluster using the following command:

kind load docker-image my-custom-image:unique-tag --name clustername

Example

kind load docker-image aveshasystems/netops:1.2.1 --name kind

1. Check the loaded image in the cluster. Modify node name if required.

docker exec -it <node-name> crictl images

Example

docker exec -it kind-control-plane crictl images

Deploy in a Cluster

Update the chart values file called yourvaluesfile.yaml that you have previously created. Refer to values.yaml to create yourvaluesfiel.yaml and update the netop image subsection to use the local image.

From the sample:

netop:
  image: docker.io/aveshasystems/netops
  tag: 0.1.0

Change it to:

netop:
  image: <my-custom-image>
  tag: <unique-tag>

Deploy the updated chart.

make chart-deploy VALUESFILE=yourvaluesfile.yaml

Verify the Installation

Verify the installation of NetOps by checking the status of pods belonging to the kubeslice-system namespace.

kubectl get pods -n kubeslice-system | grep netop

Example output

avesha-netop-pnbbr                         1/1     Running   0          4d23h
