L2 template example for automatic multiple subnet creation

This section contains an exemplary L2 template for automatic multiple subnet creation as described in Automate multiple subnet creation using SubnetPool. This template also contains the L3Layout section that allows defining the Subnet scopes and enables auto-creation of the Subnet objects from the SubnetPool objects. For details about auto-creation of the Subnet objects see Automate multiple subnet creation using SubnetPool.

For details on how to create L2 templates, see Create L2 templates.

Caution

Do not assign an IP address to the PXE nic 0 NIC explicitly to prevent the IP duplication during updates. The IP address is automatically assigned by the bootstrapping engine.

Example of an L2 template for multiple subnets:

apiVersion: ipam.mirantis.com/v1alpha1
kind: L2Template
metadata:
  name: test-managed
  namespace: managed-ns
spec:
  clusterRef: managed-cluster
  autoIfMappingPrio:
    - provision
    - eno
    - ens
    - enp
  l3Layout:
    - subnetName: pxe-subnet
      scope:      global
    - subnetName: subnet-1
      subnetPool: kaas-mgmt
      scope:      namespace
    - subnetName: subnet-2
      subnetPool: kaas-mgmt
      scope:      cluster
  npTemplate: |
    version: 2
    ethernets:
      onboard1gbe0:
        dhcp4: false
        dhcp6: false
        match:
          macaddress: {{mac 0}}
        set-name: {{nic 0}}
        # IMPORTANT: do not assign an IP address here explicitly
        # to prevent IP duplication issues. The IP will be assigned
        # automatically by the bootstrapping engine.
        # addresses: []
      onboard1gbe1:
        dhcp4: false
        dhcp6: false
        match:
          macaddress: {{mac 1}}
        set-name: {{nic 1}}
      ten10gbe0s0:
        dhcp4: false
        dhcp6: false
        match:
          macaddress: {{mac 2}}
        set-name: {{nic 2}}
        addresses:
          - {{ip "2:subnet-1"}}
      ten10gbe0s1:
        dhcp4: false
        dhcp6: false
        match:
          macaddress: {{mac 3}}
        set-name: {{nic 3}}
        addresses:
          - {{ip "3:subnet-2"}}

In the template above, the following networks are defined in the l3Layout section:

• pxe-subnet - global PXE network that already exists. A subnet name must refer to the PXE subnet created for the region.

• subnet-1 - unless already created, this subnet will be created from the kaas-mgmt subnet pool. The subnet name must be unique within the project. This subnet is shared between the project clusters.

• subnet-2 - will be created from the kaas-mgmt subnet pool. This subnet has the cluster scope. Therefore, the real name of the Subnet CR object consists of the subnet name defined in l3Layout and the cluster UID. But the npTemplate section of the L2 template must contain only the subnet name defined in l3Layout. The subnets of the cluster scope are not shared between clusters.

Caution

Using the l3Layout section, define all subnets of a cluster. Otherwise, do not use the l3Layout section. Defining only part of subnets is not allowed.
