TF REST bash wrappers

A set of bash scripts wrapping REST commands for Tungsten Fabric

Purpose of the repository

This repository provides bash functions to configure Tungsten Fabric (TF) virtual networks and other entities. The REST API used in TF is very diverse and requires a lot of input. Therefore, the more concise tool to manipulate a TF configuation is needed.

Prerequisites

Next CLI tools should be installed on the system:

1. jq
2. openstack CLI client
3. curl cmd
4. ping cmd
5. dig cmd

Examples of usage

Creation and deleteion of a virtual network

First we create a network nw1 with 1 subnet aaaa::/32:

create_network "nw1" "aaaa::/32"

This network can be deleted with:

delete_networks "nw1"

Creation and deletion of several virtual networks

First we create networka nwa and nwb with subnets aaaa::/32 bbbb::/32:

create_network "nwa" "aaaa::/32"
create_network "nwb" "bbbb::/32"

These networks can be then deleted with the command:

delete_networks "nwa,nwb"

Creation and deletion of a virtual port (virtual machine interface) with IP address

As the first step, we create virtual network nw1 and obtain it's subnet UUID:

create_network "nw1" "1111::/32"
local nw_subnet_uuid=`network_ipam_subnets "nw1"`

Then we create a virtual machine interface vmi1 in virtual network nw1:

create_vm_interface "vmi1" "nw1"

Finally, we create in instance ip iip1 with IPv6 address "1111::11" ( from 1111::/32 subnet of nw1 network) and associate it with vmi1:

create_instance_ip "iip1" "nw1" "$nw_subnet_uuid" "1111::11"
link_iip_with_vmi "iip1" "vmi1"

The created entities should be deleted in the reversed order:

delete_instance_ips "iip1"
delete_vm_interfaces "vmi1"
delete_networks "nw1"
