This document describes the architecture that results from a particular OpenStack configuration, specifically:
Much of the document will be relevant to other configurations, but details will vary based on your choice of layer 2 connectivity, number of running instances, and so forth.
The examples in this document were generated on a system with Quantum networking but will generally match what you see under Neutron as well, if you replace quantum by neutron in names.
This is a simplified architecture diagram of network connectivity in a quantum/neutron managed world:
Section names in this document include parenthetical references to the nodes on the map relevant to that particular section.
An outbound packet starts on eth0 of the virtual instance, which is connected to a tap device on the host, tap7c7ae61e-05. This tap device is attached to a Linux bridge device, qbr7c7ae61e-05. What is this bridge device for? From the OpenStack Networking Administration Guide:
Ideally, the TAP device vnet0 would be connected directly to the integration bridge, br-int. Unfortunately, this isn‘t possible because of how OpenStack security groups are currently implemented. OpenStack uses iptables rules on the TAP devices such as vnet0 to implement security groups, and Open vSwitch is not compatible with iptables rules that are applied directly on TAP devices that are connected to an Open vSwitch port.
Because this bridge device exists primarily to support firewall rules, I‘m going to refer to it as the "firewall bridge".
If you examine the firewall rules on your compute host, you will find that there are several rules associated with this tap device:
# iptables -S | grep tap7c7ae61e-05 -A quantum-openvswi-FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-out tap7c7ae61e-05 --physdev-is-bridged -j quantum-openvswi-sg-chain -A quantum-openvswi-FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-in tap7c7ae61e-05 --physdev-is-bridged -j quantum-openvswi-sg-chain -A quantum-openvswi-INPUT -m physdev --physdev-in tap7c7ae61e-05 --physdev-is-bridged -j quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -A quantum-openvswi-sg-chain -m physdev --physdev-out tap7c7ae61e-05 --physdev-is-bridged -j quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -A quantum-openvswi-sg-chain -m physdev --physdev-in tap7c7ae61e-05 --physdev-is-bridged -j quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0
The quantum-openvswi-sg-chain is where neutron-managed security groups are realized. The quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 chain controls outbound traffic FROM the instance, and by default looks like this:
-A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -m mac ! --mac-source FA:16:3E:03:00:E7 -j DROP -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -p udp -m udp --sport 68 --dport 67 -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 ! -s 10.1.0.2/32 -j DROP -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -p udp -m udp --sport 67 --dport 68 -j DROP -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -m state --state INVALID -j DROP -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-o7c7ae61e-0 -j quantum-openvswi-sg-fallback
The quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 chain controls inbound traffic TO the instance. After opening up port 22 in the default security group:
# neutron security-group-rule-create --protocol tcp --port-range-min 22 --port-range-max 22 --direction ingress default
The rules look like this:
-A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -m state --state INVALID -j DROP -A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -p icmp -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -s 10.1.0.3/32 -p udp -m udp --sport 67 --dport 68 -j RETURN -A quantum-openvswi-i7c7ae61e-0 -j quantum-openvswi-sg-fallback
A second interface attached to the bridge, qvb7c7ae61e-05, attaches the firewall bridge to the integration bridge, typically named br-int.
The integration bridge, br-int, performs VLAN tagging and un-tagging for traffic coming from and to your instances. At this moment, br-int looks something like this:
# ovs-vsctl show
Bridge br-int
Port "qvo7c7ae61e-05"
tag: 1
Interface "qvo7c7ae61e-05"
Port patch-tun
Interface patch-tun
type: patch
options: {peer=patch-int}
Port br-int
Interface br-int
type: internal
The interface qvo7c7ae61e-05 is the other end of qvb7c7ae61e-05, and carries traffic to and from the firewall bridge. The tag: 1 you see in the above output integrates that this is an access port attached to VLAN 1. Untagged outbound traffic from this instance will be assigned VLAN ID 1, and inbound traffic with VLAN ID 1 will stripped of it‘s VLAN tag and sent out this port.
Each network you create (with neutron net-create) will be assigned a different VLAN ID.
The interface named patch-tun connects the integration bridge to the tunnel bridge, br-tun.
The tunnel bridge translates VLAN-tagged traffic from the integration bridge into GRE tunnels. The translation between VLAN IDs and tunnel IDs is performed by OpenFlow rules installed on br-tun. Before creating any instances, the flow rules on the bridge look like this:
# ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-tun NXST_FLOW reply (xid=0x4): cookie=0x0, duration=871.283s, table=0, n_packets=4, n_bytes=300, idle_age=862, priority=1 actions=drop
There is a single rule that causes the bridge to drop all traffic. Afrer you boot an instance on this compute node, the rules are modified to look something like:
# ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-run NXST_FLOW reply (xid=0x4): cookie=0x0, duration=422.158s, table=0, n_packets=2, n_bytes=120, idle_age=55, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00 actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,output:1 cookie=0x0, duration=421.948s, table=0, n_packets=64, n_bytes=8337, idle_age=31, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:dd:c1:62 actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,NORMAL cookie=0x0, duration=422.357s, table=0, n_packets=82, n_bytes=10443, idle_age=31, priority=4,in_port=1,dl_vlan=1 actions=set_tunnel:0x2,NORMAL cookie=0x0, duration=1502.657s, table=0, n_packets=8, n_bytes=596, idle_age=423, priority=1 actions=drop
In general, these rules are responsible for mapping traffic between VLAN ID 1, used by the integration bridge, and tunnel id 2, used by the GRE tunnel.
The first rule...
cookie=0x0, duration=422.158s, table=0, n_packets=2, n_bytes=120, idle_age=55, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00 actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,output:1
...matches all multicast traffic (see ovs-ofctl(8)) on tunnel id 2 (tun_id=0x2), tags the ethernet frame with VLAN ID 1 (actions=mod_vlan_vid:1), and sends it out port 1. We can see from ovs-ofctl show br-tun that port 1 is patch-int:
# ovs-ofctl show br-tun

The next rule...

...matches traffic coming in on tunnel 2 (tun_id=0x2) with an ethernet destination of fa:16:3e:dd:c1:62 (dl_dst=fa:16:3e:dd:c1:62) and tags the ethernet frame with VLAN ID 1 (actions=mod_vlan_vid:1) before sending it out patch-int.
The following rule...
cookie=0x0, duration=422.357s, table=0, n_packets=82, n_bytes=10443, idle_age=31, priority=4,in_port=1,dl_vlan=1 actions=set_tunnel:0x2,NORMAL
...matches traffic coming in on port 1 (in_port=1) with VLAN ID 1 (dl_vlan=1) and set the tunnel id to 2 (actions=set_tunnel:0x2) before sending it out the GRE tunnel.
Traffic arrives on the network host via the GRE tunnel attached to br-tun. This bridge has a flow table very similar to br-tun on the compute host:
# ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-tun NXST_FLOW reply (xid=0x4): cookie=0x0, duration=1239.229s, table=0, n_packets=23, n_bytes=4246, idle_age=15, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00 actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,output:1 cookie=0x0, duration=524.477s, table=0, n_packets=15, n_bytes=3498, idle_age=10, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:83:69:cc actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,NORMAL cookie=0x0, duration=1239.157s, table=0, n_packets=50, n_bytes=4565, idle_age=148, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:aa:99:3c actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,NORMAL cookie=0x0, duration=1239.304s, table=0, n_packets=76, n_bytes=9419, idle_age=10, priority=4,in_port=1,dl_vlan=1 actions=set_tunnel:0x2,NORMAL cookie=0x0, duration=1527.016s, table=0, n_packets=12, n_bytes=880, idle_age=527, priority=1 actions=drop
As on the compute host, the first rule maps multicast traffic on tunnel ID 2 to VLAN 1.
The second rule...
cookie=0x0, duration=524.477s, table=0, n_packets=15, n_bytes=3498, idle_age=10, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:83:69:cc actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,NORMAL
...matches traffic on the tunnel destined for the DHCP server at fa:16:3e:83:69:cc. This is a dnsmasq process running inside a network namespace, the details of which we will examine shortly.
The next rule...
cookie=0x0, duration=1239.157s, table=0, n_packets=50, n_bytes=4565, idle_age=148, priority=3,tun_id=0x2,dl_dst=fa:16:3e:aa:99:3c actions=mod_vlan_vid:1,NORMAL
...matches traffic on tunnel ID 2 destined for the router at fa:16:3e:aa:99:3c, which is an interface in another network namespace.
The following rule...
cookie=0x0, duration=1239.304s, table=0, n_packets=76, n_bytes=9419, idle_age=10, priority=4,in_port=1,dl_vlan=1 actions=set_tunnel:0x2,NORMAL
...simply maps outbound traffic on VLAN ID 1 to tunnel ID 2.

It connects to the tunnel bridge, br-tun, via a patch interface, patch-tun.
Each network for which DHCP is enabled has a DHCP server running on the network controller. The DHCP server is an instance of dnsmasq running inside a network namespace. A network namespace is a Linux kernel facility that allows groups of processes to have a network stack (interfaces, routing tables, iptables rules) distinct from that of the host.
You can see a list of network namespace with the ip netns command, which in our configuration will look something like this:
# ip netns qdhcp-88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264 qrouter-2d214fde-293c-4d64-8062-797f80ae2d8f
The first of these (qdhcp...) is the DHCP server namespace for our private subnet, while the second (qrouter...) is the router.
You can run a command inside a network namespace using the ip netns exec command. For example, to see the interface configuration inside the DHCP server namespace (lo removed for brevity):
# ip netns exec qdhcp-88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264 ip addr
71: ns-f14c598d-98: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
link/ether fa:16:3e:10:2f:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.1.0.3/24 brd 10.1.0.255 scope global ns-f14c598d-98
inet6 fe80::f816:3eff:fe10:2f03/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Note the MAC address on interface ns-f14c598d-98; this matches the MAC address in the flow rule we saw on the tunnel bridge. This interface connects to the integration bridge via a tap device:
Port "tapf14c598d-98"
tag: 1
Interface "tapf14c598d-98"
You can find the dnsmasq process associated with this namespace by search the output of ps for the id (the number after qdhcp- in the namespace name):
# ps -fe | grep 88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264 nobody 23195 1 0 Oct26 ? 00:00:00 dnsmasq --no-hosts --no-resolv --strict-order --bind-interfaces --interface=ns-f14c598d-98 --except-interface=lo --pid-file=/var/lib/quantum/dhcp/88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264/pid --dhcp-hostsfile=/var/lib/quantum/dhcp/88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264/host --dhcp-optsfile=/var/lib/quantum/dhcp/88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264/opts --dhcp-script=/usr/bin/quantum-dhcp-agent-dnsmasq-lease-update --leasefile-ro --dhcp-range=tag0,10.1.0.0,static,120s --conf-file= --domain=openstacklocal root 23196 23195 0 Oct26 ? 00:00:00 dnsmasq --no-hosts --no-resolv --strict-order --bind-interfaces --interface=ns-f14c598d-98 --except-interface=lo --pid-file=/var/lib/quantum/dhcp/88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264/pid --dhcp-hostsfile=/var/lib/quantum/dhcp/88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264/host --dhcp-optsfile=/var/lib/quantum/dhcp/88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264/opts --dhcp-script=/usr/bin/quantum-dhcp-agent-dnsmasq-lease-update --leasefile-ro --dhcp-range=tag0,10.1.0.0,static,120s --conf-file= --domain=openstacklocal
A Neutron router is a network namespace with a set of routing tables and iptables rules that performs the routing between subnets. Recall that we saw two network namespaces in our configuration:
# ip netns qdhcp-88b1609c-68e0-49ca-a658-f1edff54a264 qrouter-2d214fde-293c-4d64-8062-797f80ae2d8f
Using the ip netns exec command, we can inspect the interfaces associated with the router (lo removed for brevity):
# ip netns exec qrouter-2d214fde-293c-4d64-8062-797f80ae2d8f ip addr
66: qg-d48b49e0-aa: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000

inet 172.24.4.228/32 brd 172.24.4.228 scope global qg-d48b49e0-aa
inet6 fe80::f816:3eff:fe5c:a2ac/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
68: qr-c2d7dd02-56: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
link/ether fa:16:3e:ea:64:6e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.1.0.1/24 brd 10.1.0.255 scope global qr-c2d7dd02-56
inet6 fe80::f816:3eff:feea:646e/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
The first interface, qg-d48b49e0-aa, connects the router to the gateway set by the router-gateway-set command. The second interface, qr-c2d7dd02-56, is what connects the router to the integration bridge:
Port "tapc2d7dd02-56"
tag: 1
Interface "tapc2d7dd02-56"
Looking at the routing tables inside the router, we see that there is a default gateway pointing to the .1 address of our external network, and the expected network routes for directly attached networks:
# ip netns exec qrouter-2d214fde-293c-4d64-8062-797f80ae2d8f ip route 172.24.4.224/28 dev qg-d48b49e0-aa proto kernel scope link src 172.24.4.227 10.1.0.0/24 dev qr-c2d7dd02-56 proto kernel scope link src 10.1.0.1 default via 172.24.4.225 dev qg-d48b49e0-aa
The netfilter nat table inside the router namespace is responsible for associating floating IP addresses with your instances. For example, after associating the address 172.24.4.228 with our instance, the nat table looks like this:
# ip netns exec qrouter-2d214fde-293c-4d64-8062-797f80ae2d8f iptables -t nat -S -P PREROUTING ACCEPT -P POSTROUTING ACCEPT -P OUTPUT ACCEPT -N quantum-l3-agent-OUTPUT -N quantum-l3-agent-POSTROUTING -N quantum-l3-agent-PREROUTING -N quantum-l3-agent-float-snat -N quantum-l3-agent-snat -N quantum-postrouting-bottom -A PREROUTING -j quantum-l3-agent-PREROUTING -A POSTROUTING -j quantum-l3-agent-POSTROUTING -A POSTROUTING -j quantum-postrouting-bottom -A OUTPUT -j quantum-l3-agent-OUTPUT -A quantum-l3-agent-OUTPUT -d 172.24.4.228/32 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.1.0.2 -A quantum-l3-agent-POSTROUTING ! -i qg-d48b49e0-aa ! -o qg-d48b49e0-aa -m conntrack ! --ctstate DNAT -j ACCEPT -A quantum-l3-agent-PREROUTING -d 169.254.169.254/32 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 9697 -A quantum-l3-agent-PREROUTING -d 172.24.4.228/32 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.1.0.2 -A quantum-l3-agent-float-snat -s 10.1.0.2/32 -j SNAT --to-source 172.24.4.228 -A quantum-l3-agent-snat -j quantum-l3-agent-float-snat -A quantum-l3-agent-snat -s 10.1.0.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source 172.24.4.227 -A quantum-postrouting-bottom -j quantum-l3-agent-snat
There are SNAT and DNAT rules to map traffic between the floating address, 172.24.4.228, and the private address 10.1.0.2:
-A quantum-l3-agent-OUTPUT -d 172.24.4.228/32 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.1.0.2 -A quantum-l3-agent-PREROUTING -d 172.24.4.228/32 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.1.0.2 -A quantum-l3-agent-float-snat -s 10.1.0.2/32 -j SNAT --to-source 172.24.4.228
When you associate a floating ip address with an instance, similar rules will be created in this table.
There is also an SNAT rule that NATs all outbound traffic from our private network to 172.24.4.227:
-A quantum-l3-agent-snat -s 10.1.0.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source 172.24.4.227
This permits instances to have outbound connectivity even without a public ip address.
"External" traffic flows through br-ex via the qg-d48b49e0-aa interface in the router name space, which connects to br-ex as tapd48b49e0-aa:
Bridge br-ex
Port "tapd48b49e0-aa"
Interface "tapd48b49e0-aa"
Port br-ex
Interface br-ex
type: internal
What happens when traffic gets this far depends on your local configuration.
If you assign the gateway address for your public network to br-ex:
# ip addr add 172.24.4.225/28 dev br-ex
Then you can create forwarding and NAT rules that will cause "external" traffic from your instances to get rewritten to your network controller‘s ip address and sent out on the network:
# iptables -A FORWARD -d 172.24.4.224/28 -j ACCEPT # iptables -A FORWARD -s 172.24.4.224/28 -j ACCEPT # iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING 1 -s 172.24.4.224/28 -j MASQUERADE
If you have an external router that will act as a gateway for your public network, you can add an interface on that network to the bridge. For example, assuming that eth2 was on the same network as 172.24.4.225:
# ovs-vsctl add-port br-ex eth2
