Hence these host names remain only resolvable within the same ONAP deployment. +DNS Configurations and Designate +================================ + +.. image:: images/designate.gif + +When DCAE VMs are launched by the dcae-bootstrap VM, they obtain their OAM IP addresses from +the DHCP server running on the OAM network (ONAP private network). Because these addresses +are dynamic, DCAE VMs rely on the OpenStack **Designate** DNSaaS API for registering their +IP-address-to-hostname bindings. + +DCAE VMs register their hostnames under a DNS zone. This zone can be a zone that is exposed +to the global DNS hierarchy, or a zone that is only known to the ONAP deployment. The actual +zone name is configurable, by the blueprint input files of the DCAE VMs. By default they are +set to be {{DCAE_ZONE}}.{{DOMAIN_NAME}}, where {{DCAE_ZONE}} is set to the {{RANDID}} and the +domain name is set to "dcaeg2.onap.org". If DCAE VMs are required to be routable in operator organization or on the Internet, it is expected that the DNS domain is already configured in +the organizational or global DNS hierarchy. + +For OpenStack installations without Designate, there is an alternative "Proxyed-Designate" +solution. That is, a second OpenStack installation with Designate support is used for +providing Designate API and DNSaaS for the first OpenStack installation where ONAP is +deployed. The Designate API calls from DCAE VMs are proxyed through the MultiCloud +service running in the same ONAP installation. The diagram above illustrates the solution. +Such a solution can be utilized by operators who have difficulties enhancing their existing +OpenStack infrastructure with Designate. The ONAP Pod25 lab is configured using this +approach. + +To prepare for using the proxyed-Designate solution for an ONAP deployment, a surrogate +tenant needs to be set up in the Designate-providing OpenStack. The name of the surrogate +tenant must match with the name of the tenant where the ONAP is deployed. At DCAE bootstrap +time, the dcae2_vm_init.sh script will first register two records into A&AI, which contain +parameters describing the two OpenStack installations, parameters that are needed by the MultiCloud service when performing the Designate and other API call proxying. + +When DCAE VMs make OpenStack API calls, these calls are made to the MultiCloud service +node instead, not to the underlying OpenStack cloud infrastructure. For non-Designate +calls, the MultiCloud node proxys them to the same OpenStack installation and the project +where the ONAP is installed. For Designate +calls, the MultiCloud node proxys to the Designate-providing OpenStack installation as if +such calls are for the surrogate tenant. The result is that the Designate providing +OpenStack's backend DNS server will have the new records for DCAE VMs and their IP +addresses. + +ONAP VMs deployed by Heat template are all registered with the private DNS server under the domain name of **simpledemo.onap.org**. This domain can not be exposed to any where outside of the ONAP deployment because all ONAP deployments use the same domain name and same address space. Hence these host names remain only resolvable within the same ONAP deployment. On the +other hand DCAE VMs have host names under the DNS zone of **{{DCAE_ZONE}}.{{DOMAIN_NAME}}**, +which can be set up to be resolvable within organizational network or even global Internet. + +To make the hostnames of ONAP VMs and external servers (e.g. onap.org) resolvable, the +following DNS related configurations are needed. -On the other hand DCAE VMs, although attached to the same OAM network as the rest of ONAP VMs, all have dynamic IP addresses allocated by the DHCP server and resort to a DNS based solution for registering the hostname and IP address mapping. DCAE VMs of different ONAP deployments are registered under different zones named as **{{RAND}}.dcaeg2.onap.org**. The API that DCAE calls to request the DNS zone registration and record registration is provided by OpenStack's DNS as a Service technology Designate. +* The ONAP deployment's private DNS server, 10.0.100.1, is the default resolver for all the VMS. This is necessary to make the **simpledemo.onap.org** hostnames resolvable. +* The ONAP deployment's private DNS server, 10.0.100.1, must have the Designate backend DNS server as the forwarder. This is necessary to make the **{{DCAE_ZONE}}.{{DOMAIN_NAME}}** hostnames resolvable. +* The Designate backend DNS server needs to be configured so it can resolve all global hostnames. One exemplary configuration for achieving this is to have an external DNS server such as an organizational or global DNS server, e.g. Google's 8.8.8.8, as the forwarder. -To enable VMs spun up by ONAP Heat template and DCAE's bootstrap process communicate with each other using hostnames, all VMs are configured to use the private DNS server launched by the Heat template as their name resolution server. In the configuration of this private DNS server, the DNS server that backs up Designate API frontend is used as the DNS forwarder. +As the result of such configurations, below lists how different hostnames are resolved, as illustrated in the figure above: -For simpledemo.onap.org VM to simpledemo.onap.org VM communications and {{RAND}}.dcaeg2.onap.org VM to simpledemo.onap.org VM communications, the resolution is completed by the private DNS server itself. For simpledemo.onap.org VM to {{RAND}}.dcaeg2.onap.org VM communications and {{RAND}}.dcaeg2.onap.org VM to {{RAND}}.dcaeg2.onap.org VM communications, the resolution request is forwarded from the private DNS server to the Designate DNS server and resolved there. Communications to outside world are resolved also by the Designate DNS server if the hostname belongs to a zone registered under the Designate DNS server, or forwarded to the next DNS server, either an organizational DNS server or a DNS server even higher in the global DNS server hierarchy. +* For hostnames within the **simpledemo.onap.org** domain, the private DNS server at 10.0.100.1 has the bindings; +* For hostnames within the **{{DCAE_ZONE}}.{{DOMAIN_NAME}}** domain, the private DNS server forwards to the Designate backend DNS server, which has the bindings; +* For all other hostnames, e.g. ubuntu.org, the private DNS server forwards to the Designate backend DNS server, which then forwards to an external DNS server that has or is able to further forward request to a DNS server that has the bindings. -For OpenStack installations where there is no existing DNS service, a "proxyed" Designate solution is supported. In this arrangement, DCAE bootstrap process will use MultiCloud service node as its Keystone API endpoint. For non Designate API calls, the MultiCloud service node forwards to the underlying cloud provider. However, for Designate API calls, the MultiCloud service node forwards to an off-stack Designate server. +We wil go over the details of related Heat template env parameters in the next section.
