NetOps

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

Get Started

Please refer to our documentation on:

• Install KubeSlice on cloud clusters.
• Install KubeSlice on kind clusters using our Sandbox.

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.

Build and Deploy Netops on a Kind Cluster

To download the latest NetOps docker hub image, click here.

docker pull aveshasystems/netops:latest

Set up Your Helm Repo

If you have not added Avesha's helm repo yet, add it.

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

Upgrade Avesha's 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

2. Edit the VERSION variable in the Makefile to change the docker tag to be built. The image is set as docker.io/aveshasystems/netops:$(VERSION) in the Makefile. Modiy this if required.

make docker-build

Run Locally on a Kind Cluster

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

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

   docker exec -it <node-name> crictl images

   Example

   docker exec -it kind-control-plane crictl images

Deploy NetOps on a Cluster

Update the chart values file called yourvaluesfile.yaml that you have previously created. Refer to the values.yaml to create yourvaluesfiel.yaml and update the Netops 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
