Note: MAC addresses of physical interfaces that belong to a bond will be resolved to the bond name and the bond will be added to the ovs bridge. Bridges referenced here must be mentioned in the `ovn-bridge-mappings` configuration option. If a match is found the bridge will be created if it does not already exist, the matched interface will be added to it and the mapping found in `ovn-bridge-mappings` will be added to the local OVSDB under the `external\_ids:ovn-bridge-mappings` key in the Open\_vSwitch table. An example value mapping two network interface mac address to two ovs bridges would be: br-internet:00:00:5e:00:00:42 br-provider:enp3s0f0 Note: OVN gives you distributed East/West and highly available North/South routing by default. You do not need to add provider networks for use with external Layer3 connectivity to all chassis. Doing so will create a scaling problem at the physical network layer that needs to be resolved with globally shared Layer2 (does not scale) or tunneling at the top-of-rack switch layer (adds complexity) and is generally not a recommended configuration. Add provider networks for use with external Layer3 connectivity to individual chassis located near the datacenter border gateways by adding the MAC address of the physical interfaces of those units. * debug | boolean Enable debug logging * disable-mlockall | boolean Disable Open vSwitch use of mlockall(). . When mlockall() is enabled, all of ovs-vswitchd's process memory is locked into physical RAM and prevented from paging. This avoids network interruptions but can lead to memory exhaustion in memory-constrained environments. . By default, the charm will disable mlockall() if it is running in a container. Otherwise, the charm will default to mlockall() enabled if it is not running in a container. . Changing this config option will restart openvswitch-switch, resulting in an expected data plane outage while the service restarts. * dpdk-bond-config | string Default: :balance-tcp:active:fast Space delimited list of bond:mode:lacp:lacp-time, where the arguments meaning is: . \* bond - the bond name. If not specified the configuration applies to all bonds \* mode - the bond mode of operation. Possible values are: - active-backup - No load balancing is offered in this mode and only one of the member ports is active/used at a time. - balance-slb - Considered as a static load-balancing mode. Traffic is load balanced between member ports based on the source MAC and VLAN. - balance-tcp - This is the preferred bonding mode. It offers traffic load balancing based on 5-tuple header fields. LACP must be enabled at both endpoints to use this mode. The aggregate link will fall back to default mode (active-passive) in the event of LACP negotiation failure. \* lacp - active, passive or off \* lacp-time - fast or slow. LACP negotiation time interval - 30 ms or 1 second * dpdk-bond-mappings | string Space-delimited list of bond:port mappings. The DPDK assigned ports will be added to their corresponding bond, which in turn will be put into the bridge as specified in data-port. . This option is supported only when enable-dpdk is true. * dpdk-driver | string Kernel userspace device driver to use for DPDK devices, valid values include: . vfio-pci uio\_pci\_generic . Only used when DPDK is enabled. * dpdk-runtime-libraries | string Space delimited list of additional DPDK runtime libraries that should be installed when DPDK is enabled. . By default, only the runtime libraries that are recommended with the dpdk libraries are installed. Environments that need additional libraries installed should include those library packages. The runtime libraries can be defined either by the full package name (e.g. librte-pmd-bnx2x20.0) or by the simple name (e.g. bnx2x). When providing the simple name, a search is done of the apt-cache for a name matching `librte-\*\*` for installation and will install all matching packages that are found. . Only used when DPDK is enabled. * dpdk-socket-cores | int Default: 1 Number of cores to allocate to non-datapath DPDK threads per NUMA socket in deployed systems. . Only used when DPDK is enabled. * dpdk-socket-memory | int Default: 1024 Amount of hugepage memory in MB to allocate per NUMA socket in deployed systems. . Only used when DPDK is enabled. NOTE: Please check that the value set here is large enough to accommodate the MTU size being used. For more information please refer to https://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/topics/dpdk/memory/#shared-memory-calculations * enable-auto-restarts | boolean Default: True Allow the charm and packages to restart services automatically when required. * enable-dpdk | boolean Enable DPDK fast userspace networking; this requires use of DPDK supported network interface drivers and must be used in conjunction with the data-port configuration option to configure each bridge with an appropriate DPDK enabled network device. * enable-hardware-offload | boolean Enable support for hardware offload of flows from Open vSwitch to supported network adapters. . Enabling this option will make use of the sriov-numvfs option to configure the VF functions of the physical network adapters detected in each unit. . This option must not be enabled with either enable-sriov or enable-dpdk. . NOTE: Changing this value will not perform runtime changes to hardware specific adaption. A reboot of the system is required to apply configuration. * enable-sriov | boolean Enable SR-IOV NIC agent on deployed units; use with sriov-device-mappings to map SR-IOV devices to underlying provider networks. Enabling this option allows instances to be plugged into directly into SR-IOV VF devices connected to underlying provider networks alongside the default Open vSwitch networking options. * enable-version-pinning | boolean Default: True OVN is a distributed system, and special consideration must be given to the process used to upgrade OVN. In order to successfully perform a rolling upgrade, the ovn-controller process needs to understand the structure of the database for the version you are upgrading from and to simultaneously. Rolling upgrades are supported as long as the span of versions used in the system is within the previous and the next upstream OVN LTS version. If you are upgrading across LTS boundaries you may need to use version pinning to avoid data plane outage during the upgrade. * nagios\_context | string Default: juju A string that will be prepended to instance name to set the host name in nagios. So for instance the hostname would be something like: juju-myservice-0 If you're running multiple environments with the same services in them this allows you to differentiate between them. * nagios\_servicegroups | string Comma separated list of nagios servicegroups for the service checks. * new-units-paused | boolean Start new units of the application as paused. . When set to 'true' newly deployed units of the application will install the charm and any packages required on the sytem, but keep any services from actually starting. . To start the services the operator must run the `resume` action on each unit. . This is useful for use with OpenStack for controlled unit by unit migration of deployments from the legacy Neutron ML2 OVS topology to the OVN topology. Both topologies make use of Open vSwitch and the 'br-int' integration bridge on the hypervisor and during a migration the operator may want to shut down and clean up after the ML2 OVS components before the `ovn-controller` takes over and reprograms the bridge flow rules. * openstack-metadata-workers | int Default: 2 When charm is related to OpenStack through the `nova-compute` relation endpoint, the Neutron OVN Metadata service will be activated on the host. . Use this configuration option to control the number of workers the Neutron OVN Metadata service should run. . Each of the workers will establish a connection to the OVN Southbound database. Events the worker respond to is for example the first time a hypervisor hosts an instance in a subnet, so the volume should be relatively low. If you set this number too high you may put an unnecessary toll on the OVN Southbound database server. * ovn-bridge-mappings | string A space-delimited list of key-value pairs that map a physical network name to a local ovs bridge that provides connectivity to that network. The physical network name can be referenced when the administrator programs the OVN logical flows either by talking directly to the Northbound database or by interfacing with a Cloud Management System (CMS). Each charm unit will evaluate each key-value pair and determine if the configuration is relevant for the host it is running on based on matches found in the `bridge-interface-mappings` configuration option. If a match is found the bridge will be created if it does not already exist, the matched interface will be added to it and the mapping will be added to the local OVSDB under the `external\_ids:ovn-bridge-mappings` key in the Open\_vSwitch table. An example value mapping two physical network names to two ovs bridges would be: physnet1:br-internet physnet2:br-provider NOTE: Values in this configuration option will only have effect for units that have a interface referenced in the `bridge-interface-mappings` configuration option. * ovn-monitor-all | boolean A boolean value that tells if ovn-controller should monitor all records of tables in the OVN\_Southbound database. If this option is set to false, ovn-controller will conditionally monitor only the records that are needed for the local chassis. * ovn-source | string Overlay repository from which to install OVS+OVN. The default for this configuration option is determined at charm runtime. When charm is deployed into a fresh environment on Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal Fossa), the default will be 'cloud:focal-ovn-22.03'. When charm is upgraded or deployed into a fresh environment on a different series the default will be to not use the overlay repository. To disable the overlay repository, set this option to 'distro'. Note that updating this setting to a source that is known to provide a later version of OVN will trigger a software upgrade. * pmd-cpu-set | string Comma separated list of cpus used for DPDK datapath packet processing. The range and caret operators are supported. Example: 2,4,5-9,^7,16-23,^20,^22 Only used when DPDK is enabled. NOTE: It is recommended to avoid overlap between datapath (pmd-cpu-mask) and non-datapath (dpdk-lcore-mask) cpus. The charm will go into blocked state if an overlap is detected. * prefer-chassis-as-gw | boolean Prefer units of this application in CMS (Cloud Management System) scheduling of HA chassis groups (aka. gateways) over units of other OVN chassis applications present in this deployment. . By default the CMS will schedule HA chassis groups across all chassis with bridge- and bridge interface mappings configured. . This configuration option would allow you to influence where gateways are scheduled when all units have equal bridge- and bridge interface mapping configuration. . NOTE: If none of the OVN chassis named applications in the deployment have this option enabled, the CMS will fall back to schedule gateways to chassis with bridge- and bridge interface mapping configured. . NOTE: It is also possible to enable this option on several OVN chassis applications at the same time, e.g. on 2 out of 3. * sriov-device-mappings | string Space-delimited list of SR-IOV device mappings with format . : . Multiple mappings can be provided, delimited by spaces. * sriov-numvfs | string Default: auto Number of VF's to configure each PF with; by default, each SR-IOV PF will be configured with the maximum number of VF's it can support. In the case sriov-device-mappings is set, only the devices in the mapping are configured. Either use a single integer to apply the same VF configuration to all detected SR-IOV devices or use a per-device configuration in the following format . : . Multiple devices can be configured by providing multi values delimited by spaces. . NOTE: Changing this value will have no effect on runtime configuration. A manual issue of the `netplan apply` command or reboot of the system is required to apply configuration. * vpd-device-spec | string A list of specs used by the charm to identify a device to be used as a primary source of Vital Product Data (VPD) containing a NIC serial number. This option can be used to enable SmartNIC DPU support. . Based on the retrieved information the charm will set up a mapping between a chassis hostname and a unique card serial number of a NIC in the OVN southbound database. It can then used by the CMS to look up which chassis should service a port plugging request based on the information provided from a hypervisor host. . Multiple items can be specified in the list in order to allow for hosts with different kinds of hardware or to specify the order of precedence if multiple devices from the list are present on a host. This should not normally happen with DPUs that only have one chip exposed. . Examples: [{"bus": "pci", "vendor\_id": "15b3", "product\_id": "a2d6" },
