mm-ctl

MidoNet port binding command line tool

Prerequisites

• Go (>= 1.5)

mm-ctl depends on the specific versions of the libraries. Especially mm-ctl heavily depends on curator.go's InterProcessMutex to have the coherence with the lock of MidoNet agent against the virutal topology, and curator.go is not up-to-date to be compatible with the latest version of go-zookeeper. So the snapshots of dependencies are included in the codebase under vendor directory. Go 1.5 introduced the vendoring as its experimental feature and we leverage it for managing the dependencies.

Installation

The following commands generate the binary mm-ctl. You can use it directly or put anywhere you want.

$ GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 go get
$ GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 go build

Usage

mm-ctl assumes two config files are placed in the appropriate places, /etc/midolman/midolman.conf and /etc/midonet_host_id.properties. If you have them in the different paths, you can specify them with -config and -host-config for each other.

Binding the Neutron port to the interface

$ sudo mm-ctl bind 2738e706-6ec7-4b22-b43f-be20f7ad85cb b3f9a34d-veth

or

$ sudo mm-ctl -config /path/to/midolman.conf \
  -host-config /path/to/midonet_host_id.properties \
  bind 2738e706-6ec7-4b22-b43f-be20f7ad85cb b3f9a34d-veth

Unbinding the Neutron port

$ sudo mm-ctl unbind 2738e706-6ec7-4b22-b43f-be20f7ad85cb

or

$ sudo mm-ctl -config /path/to/midolman.conf \
  -host-config /path/to/midonet_host_id.properties \
  unbind 2738e706-6ec7-4b22-b43f-be20f7ad85cb
