HBN Service Configuration
To start configuring HBN, log into the HBN container:
sudo crictl exec -it $(crictl ps | grep hbn | awk '{print $1;}'
) bash
Flat Files Configuration
Add network interfaces and FRR configuration files to HBN to achieve the desired configuration:
/etc/network/interfaces
NoteRefer to NVIDIA® Cumulus® Linux documentation for more information.
/etc/frr/frr.conf; /etc/frr/daemons
NoteRefer to NVIDIA® Cumulus® Linux documentation for more information.
This section assumes familiarity with NVIDIA user experience (NVUE) Cumulus Linux documentation. The following subsections, only expand on HBN-specific aspects of NVUE.
NVUE Service
HBN installs NVUE by default and enables NVUE service at boot.
NVUE REST API
HBN enables the REST API by default but with localhost access. The user cannot access REST API from the outside by default.
To enable REST API access, please refer to section "Enable REST API Access".
Users may run the cURL commands from the command line. Use the default HBN username, nvidia, and password which must be updated when enabling the REST API using the HBN preparation script.
To change the default password of the nvidia user or add additional users for NVUE access, refer to section "HBN NVUE User Credentials".
REST API example:
curl -u 'nvidia:nvidia' --insecure https://<mgmt_ip>:8765/nvue_v1/vrf/default/router/bgp
{
"configured-neighbors": 2,
"established-neighbors": 2,
"router-id": "10.10.10.201"
}
NVUE REST API Management Through CLI
To enable the REST API service, run:
nv set system api state enabled
To disable the REST API service:
nv set system api state disabled
To bind the REST API service to a specific address:
nv set system api listening-address <localhost|ipv4|ipv6|0.0.0.0>
For information about using the NVUE REST API, refer to the NVUE API documentation .
NVUE CLI
For information about using the NVUE CLI, refer to the NVUE CLI documentation
NVUE Startup Configuration File
When the network configuration is saved using NVUE, HBN writes the configuration to the /etc/nvue.d/startup.yaml file.
Startup configuration is applied by following the supervisor daemon at boot time. nvued-startup will appear in EXITED state after applying the startup configuration.
# supervisorctl status nvued-startup
nvued-startup EXITED Apr 17 10:04 AM
nv config apply startup applies the yaml configuration saved at /etc/nvue.d/.
nv config save saves the running configuration to /etc/nvue.d/startup.yaml.
HBN Default Configuration
After a fresh HBN installation, the default /etc/network/interfaces file would contain only the declaration of the two uplink SFs and a loopback interface.
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*.intf
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto p0_if
iface p0_if
auto p1_if
iface p1_if
FRR configuration files would also be present under /etc/frr/ but no configuration would be enabled.
Layer-3 Routing
Native Routing with BGP and ECMP
HBN supports unicast routing with BGP and ECMP for IPv4 and IPv6 traffic. ECMP is achieved by distributing traffic using hash calculation based on the source IP , destination IP, and protocol type of the IP header.
For TCP and UDP packets, it also includes source port and destination port.
ECMP Example
ECMP is implemented any time routes have multiple paths over uplinks or host ports. For example, 20.20.20.0/24 has 2 paths using both uplinks, so a path is selected based on a hash of the IP headers.
20.20.20.0/24 proto bgp metric 20
nexthop via 169.254.0.1 dev p0_if weight 1 onlink <<<<< via uplink p0_if
nexthop via 169.254.0.1 dev p1_if weight 1 onlink <<<<< via uplink p1_if
HBN supports up to 16 paths for ECMP.

Direct Routing on Host-facing Interfaces
Host-facing interfaces (PFs and VFs) are not restricted to be part of the bridge for routing. HBN supports L3-only configuration with direct routing on host-facing PFs and VFs.
Sample NVUE Configuration
nv set interface pf0hpf_if ip address 30.30.11.1/24
nv set interface pf0hpf_if ip address 2030:30:11::1/64

BGP Peering with the Host
HBN supports the ability to establish a BGP session between the host and the HBN service running on BlueField Arm and allow the host to announce arbitrary route prefixes through the BlueField into the underlay fabric. The host can use any standard BGP protocol stack implementation to establish BGP peering with HBN.
Traffic to and from endpoints on the host gets offloaded.
Both IPv4 and IPv6 unicast AFI/SAFI are supported.
It is possible to apply route filtering for these prefixes to limit the potential security impact in this configuration.
Sample NVUE Configuration for Host BGP Peering
The following code block shows configuration to peer to host at 45.3.0.4 and 2001:cafe:1ead::4. The BGP session can be established using IPv4 or IPv6 address.
Either of these sessions can support IPv4 unicast and IPv6 unicast AFI/SAFI.
NVUE configuration for peering with host:
nv set vrf default router bgp autonomous-system 63642
nv set vrf default router bgp enable on
nv set vrf default router bgp neighbor 45.3.0.4 nexthop-connected-check off

VRF Route Leaking
VRFs are typically used when multiple independent routing and forwarding tables are desirable. However, users may want to reach destinations in one VRF from another VRF, as in the following cases:
To make a service, such as a firewall available to multiple VRFs
To enable routing to external networks or the Internet for multiple VRFs, where the external network itself is reachable through a specific VRF
Route leaking can be used to reach remote destinations as well as directly connected destinations in another VRF. Multiple VRFs can import routes from a single source VRF, and a VRF can import routes from multiple source VRFs. This can be used when a single VRF provides connectivity to external networks or a shared service for other VRFs. It is possible to control the routes leaked dynamically across VRFs with a route map.
When route leaking is used:
The redistribute command (not network command) must be used in BGP to leak non-BGP routes (connected or static routes)
It is not possible to leak routes between the default and non-default VRF
Ping or other IP traffic from a locally connected host in vrfX to a local interface IP address on the BlueField/HBN in vrfY does not work, even if VRF route-leaking is enabled between these two VRFs.
In the following example commands, routes in the BGP routing table of VRF BLUE dynamically leak into VRF RED:
nv set vrf RED router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import
from-vrf list BLUE
nv config apply
The following example commands delete leaked routes from VRF BLUE to VRF RED:
nv unset vrf RED router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import
from-vrf list BLUE
nv config apply
To exclude certain prefixes from the import process, configure the prefixes in a route map.
The following example configures a route map to match the source protocol BGP and imports the routes from VRF BLUE to VRF RED. For the imported routes, the community is 11:11 in VRF RED.
nv set vrf RED router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import
from-vrf list BLUE
nv set router policy route-map BLUEtoRED rule 10
match type ipv4
nv set router policy route-map BLUEtoRED rule 10
match source-protocol bgp
nv set router policy route-map BLUEtoRED rule 10
action permit
nv set router policy route-map BLUEtoRED rule 10
set community 11
:11
nv set vrf RED router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import
from-vrf route-map BLUEtoRED
nv config
To check the status of the VRF route leaking, run:
NVUE command:
nv show vrf <vrf-name> router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-
import
Vtysh command:
show ip bgp vrf <vrf-name> ipv4|ipv6 unicast route-leak command.
For example:
nv show vrf RED router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-
import
operational applied -------------- ------------ --------- from-vrf enable on route-map BLUEtoRED [list] BLUE BLUE [route-target]10.10
.10.1
:3
To show more detailed status information, the following NVUE commands are available:
nv show vrf <vrf-name> router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import from-vrf
nv show vrf <vrf-name> router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import from-vrf list
nv show vrf <vrf-name> router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast route-import from-vrf list <leak-vrf-id>
To view the BGP routing table, run:
NVUE command:
nv show vrf <vrf-name> router bgp address-family ipv4-unicast
Vtysh command:
show ip bgp vrf <vrf-name> ipv4|ipv6 unicast
To view the FRR IP routing table, run:
Vtysh command:
show ip route vrf <vrf-name>
Or:
net show route vrf <vrf-name>
InfoThese commands show all routes, including routes leaked from other VRFs.
VLAN Subinterfaces
A VLAN subinterface is a VLAN device on an interface. The VLAN ID appends to the parent interface using dot (.) VLAN notation which is a standard way to specify a VLAN device in Linux.
For example:
A VLAN with ID 100 which is a subinterface of p0_if is annotated as p0_if.100
The subinterface p0_if.100 only receives packets that have a VLAN 100 tag on port p0_if
Any packets transmitted from p0_if.100 would have VLAN tag 100
In HBN, VLAN subinterfaces can be created on uplink ports as well as on the host-facing PF and VF ports. A VLAN subinterface only receives traffic tagged for that VLAN.
VLAN subinterfaces are L3 interfaces and should not be added to a bridge.
In the following example, uplink subinterface on p0_if with VLAN ID 10 and a host facing subinterface on VF ports pf1vf0_if with VLAN ID 999 are created. The host-facing subinterface is also assigned with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Subinterface configuration using NVUE commands:
nv set interface p0_if.10 base-interface p0_if
nv set interface p0_if.10 type sub
nv set interface p0_if.10 vlan 10
nv set interface pf1vf0_if type swp
nv set interface pf1vf0_if.999 base-interface pf1vf0_if
nv set interface pf1vf0_if.999 type sub
nv set interface pf1vf0_if.999 vlan 999
nv set interface pf1vf0_if ip address 30.30.14.1/24
nv set interface pf1vf0_if ip address 2030:30:14::1/64
Same configuration using sample flat file in /etc/network/interfaces:
subinterface configuration e/n/i file
auto p0_if.10
iface p0_if.10
auto pf1vf0_if.999
iface pf1vf0_if.999
address 2030:30:40::1/64
address 30.30.40.1/24
Ethernet Virtual Private Network – EVPN
HBN supports VXLAN with EVPN control plane for intra-subnet bridging (L2) services for IPv4 and IPv6 traffic in the overlay.
For the underlay, only IPv4 or BGP unnumbered configuration is supported.
HBN supports VXLAN encapsulation only over uplink parent interfaces.
Single VXLAN Device
With a single VXLAN device, a set of VXLAN network identifiers (VNIs) represents a single device model. The single VXLAN device has a set of attributes that belong to the VXLAN construct. Individual VNIs include VLAN-to-VNI mapping which allows users to specify which VLANs are associated with which VNIs. A single VXLAN device simplifies the configuration and reduces the overhead by replacing multiple traditional VXLAN devices with a single VXLAN device.
Users may configure a single VXLAN device automatically with NVUE, or manually by editing the /etc/network/interfaces file. When users configure a single VXLAN device with NVUE, NVUE creates a unique name for the device in the following format using the bridge name as the hash key: vxlan<id>.
This example configuration performs the following steps:
Creates a single VXLAN device (vxlan21).
Maps VLAN 10 to VNI 10 and VLAN 20 to VNI 20.
Adds the VXLAN device to the default bridge.
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv set bridge domain bridge vlan 10 vni 10
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv set bridge domain bridge vlan 20 vni 20
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv set nve vxlan source address 10.10.10.1
cumulus@leaf01:~$ nv config apply
Alternately, users may edit the file /etc/network/interfaces as follows, then run the ifreload -a command to apply the SVD configuration.
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
vxlan-local-tunnelip 10.10.10.1
auto vxlan21
iface vxlan21
bridge-vlan-vni-map 10=10 20=20
bridge-learning off
auto bridge
iface bridge
bridge-vlan-aware yes
bridge-ports vxlan21 pf0hpf_if pf1hpf_if
bridge-vids 10 20
bridge-pvid 1
Users may not use a combination of single and traditional VXLAN devices.
Sample Switch Configuration for EVPN

Layer-3 EVPN with Symmetric Routing
In distributed symmetric routing, each VXLAN endpoint (VTEP) acts as a layer-3 gateway, performing routing for its attached hosts. However, both the ingress VTEP and egress VTEP route the packets (similar to traditional routing behavior of routing to a next-hop router). In a VXLAN encapsulated packet, the inner destination MAC address is the router MAC address of the egress VTEP to indicate that the egress VTEP is the next hop and that it must also perform the routing.
All routing happens in the context of a tenant (VRF). For a packet that the ingress VTEP receives from a locally attached host, the SVI interface corresponding to the VLAN determines the VRF. For a packet that the egress VTEP receives over the VXLAN tunnel, the VNI in the packet has to specify the VRF. For symmetric routing, this is a VNI corresponding to the tenant and is different from either the source VNI or the destination VNI. This VNI is a layer-3 VNI or interconnecting VNI. The regular VNI, which maps a VLAN, is the layer-2 VNI.
For more details about this, refer to the Cumulus Linux User Manual .
HBN uses a one-to-one mapping between an L3 VNI and a tenant (VRF).
The VRF to L3 VNI mapping has to be consistent across all VTEPs.
An L3 VNI and an L2 VNI cannot have the same ID.
In an EVPN symmetric routing configuration, when the switch announces a type-2 (MAC/IP) route, in addition to containing two VNIs (L2 and L3 VNIs), the route also contains separate route targets (RTs) for L2 and L3. The L3 RT associates the route with the tenant VRF. By default, this is auto-derived using the L3 VNI instead of the L2 VNI. However, this is configurable.
For EVPN symmetric routing, users must perform the configuration listed in the following subsections. Optional configuration includes configuring a r oute distinguisher ( RD) and RTs for the tenant VRF, and advertising the locally-attached subnets.
Sample NVUE Configuration for L3 EVPN
If using NVUE to configure EVPN symmetric routing, the following is a sample configuration using NVUE commands:

Multi-hop eBGP Peering for EVPN (Route Server in Symmetric EVPN Routing)
eBGP multi-hop peering for EVPN support in a route server-like role in EVPN topology, allows the deployment of EVPN on any cloud that supports IP transport.
R oute servers and BF/HBN VTEPs are connected via the IP cloud. That is:
Switches in the cloud provider need not be EVPN-aware
Switches in the provider fabric provide IPv4 and IPv6 transport and do not have to support EVPN
Sample Route Server Configuration for EVPN
The following is a sample configuration of an Ubuntu server running FRR 9.0 stable, configured as EVPN route server and an HBN VTEP that is peering to two spine switches for IP connectivity and 3 Route servers for EVPN overlay control.

The command output shows that the HBN has BGP sessions with spine switches exchanging IPv4/IPv6 unicast. BGP sessions with route servers sn1, sn2, and sn3 only exchanging L2VPN EVPN AFI/SAFI.
Downstream VNI (DVNI)
Downstream VNI (symmetric EVPN route leaking) allows users to leak remote EVPN routes without having the source tenant VRF locally configured. A common use case is where upstream switches learn the L3VNI from downstream leaf switches and impose the learned L3VNI to the traffic VXLAN routed to the associated VRF. This eliminates the need to configure L3VNI-SVI interfaces on all leaf switches and enables shared service and hub-and-spoke scenarios .
To configure access to a shared service in a specific VRF, users must:
Configure route-target import statements, effectively leaking routes from remote tenants to the shared VRF.
Import shared VRF's route-target at the remote nodes.
The route target import or export statement takes the following format:
route-target import|export <asn>:<vni>
For example:
route-target import 65101:6000
For route target import statements, users can use route-target import ANY:<vni> for NVUE commands or route-target import *:<vni> in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file. ANY in NVUE commands or the asterisk (*) in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file use any ASN (a utonomous system number ) as a wildcard.
The NVUE commands are as follows:
To configure a route import statement:
nv set vrf <vrf> router bgp route-import from-evpn route-target <asn>:<vni>
To configure a route export statement:
nv set vrf <vrf> router bgp route-export from-evpn route-target <asn>:<vni>
Important considerations when implementing DVNI configuration:
EVPN symmetric mode supports downstream VNI with L3 VNIs and single VXLAN devices only
You can configure multiple import and export route targets in a VRF
You cannot leak (import) overlapping tenant prefixes into the same destination VRF
If symmetric EVPN configuration is using automatic import/export (which is often the case), when DVNI is configured, automatic import of a tenant's VNI is disabled which isolates the VRF from the tenant. To avoid this issue, add route-import from-evpn route-target auto to the command line.
DVNI Configurations for Shared Internet Service
Configuration example here considers a scenario where External/Internet connectivity is available via a firewall (FW), which is connected to a shared VRF (vrf external in this example).
The routes on super spine switches have external VRF configured in which the route-targets from remote tenants are imported.
On BlueField devices with HBN, a local tenant VRF imports route-target corresponding to the shared external VRF.

On BlueField devices with HBN, every tenant VRF on HBN one must import VNI of shared external VRF:

Gateway Application Using Downstream VNI and Subinterface
A DPU running the HBN service can be deployed in the role of a border gateway using a combination of HBN features, specifically, EVPN symmetric routing, downstream VNI, VRF route-leaking, and VLAN sub-interfaces. Such a border gateway can do the northbound traffic handoff (to external networks or the Internet) for one or more tenants. In this gateway configuration, the BlueField's uplinks must carry both the tenant traffic which would be in the "overlay" and VXLAN-encapsulated, as well as traffic to and from the external network or Internet, which would be direct-routed in the "underlay". This is accomplished by configuring and running VXLAN-EVPN on the uplink interfaces while configuring and using additional VLAN sub-interfaces on those same uplinks for the traffic to and from external networks. These VLAN sub-interfaces would be configured into an Internet or external VRF for separation from the VXLAN-encapsulated traffic which is carried over the default VRF.
With a BlueField running HBN able to act as a border gateway, there is no longer a dependence on physical switches and routers to terminate VXLAN traffic and perform this role, hence the requirements on the underlying network is simply to provide end-to-end IP/UDP connectivity and facilitate the setup of overlay networks on top. Additionally, multiple border gateways can be easily deployed in the network, including dedicated gateways per tenant or shared gateways for groups of tenants.
Since HBN currently does not support network address translation (NAT), a dedicated border gateway must be deployed per tenant, for those tenants that have overlapping IP addresses.
For more details and configuration of some of the key features that together enable the border gateway functionality, refer to sections on Downstream VNIs and VLAN Subinterfaces.
Gateway Application Example
The following topology diagram and associated configuration snippets show two different use cases of border gateway deployment:
tenant1 is an example of a tenant hosted on a server(s) with a non-gateway BlueField, using a dedicated border gateway on BlueField Gw-HBN1 for Internet connectivity. Traffic flow to and from the Internet for this tenant is m arked in pink.
gw_tenant1 is an example of a tenant hosted on a server(s) with a gateway BlueField. In this case, the border gateway for this tenant is provided by BlueField Gw-HBN2. Traffic flow to and from the Internet for this tenant is depicted in blue .

Configuration Snippet for Internet VRF
Internet VRF is established in BGP sessions using sub-interface features with underlay switches (i.e., p0_if.60 and p1_if.60)
The Internet VRF also imports all the tenant VRFs (local and remote) using the downstream VNI feature with from-EVPN syntax

Configuration Snippet for Gateway Local Tenant
gw_tenant is stretched across 2 gateway and connected using L3 VNI
gw_tenant has multiple SVIs, which are represented as vlan30 and vlan31 SVIs
Internet L3 VNI is imported using DVNI. The example also explicitly adds route targets using auto.

Access Control Lists
Access Control Lists (ACLs) are a set of rules that are used to filter network traffic. These rules are used to specify the traffic flows that must be permitted or blocked at networking device interfaces. There are two types of ACLs:
Stateless ACLs – rules that are applied to individual packets. They inspect each packet individually and permit/block the packets based on the packet header information and the match criteria specified by the rule.
Stateful ACLs – rules that are applied to traffic sessions/connections. They inspect each packet with respect to the state of the session/connection to which the packet belongs to determine whether to permit/block the packet.
Stateless ACLs
HBN supports configuration of stateless ACLs for IPv4 packets, IPv6 packets, and Ethernet (MAC) frames. The following examples depict how stateless ACLs are configured for each case, with NVUE and with flat files (cl-acltool).
NVUE Examples for Stateless ACLs
NVUE IPv4 ACLs Example
The following is an example of an ingress IPv4 ACL that permits DHCP request packets ingressing on the pf0hpf_if port towards the DHCP server:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl1_ingress type ipv4
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl1_ingress rule 100 match ip protocol udp
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl1_ingress rule 100 match ip dest-port 67
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl1_ingress rule 100 match ip source-port 68
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl1_ingress rule 100 action permit
Bind the ingress IPv4 ACL to host representor port pf0hpf_if of BlueField in the inbound direction:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl1_ingress inbound
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv config apply
The following is an example of an egress IPv4 ACL that permits DHCP reply packets egressing out of the pf0hpf_if port towards the DHCP client:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl2_egress type ipv4
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl2_egress rule 200 match ip protocol udp
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl2_egress rule 200 match ip dest-port 68
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl2_egress rule 200 match ip source-port 67
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl2_egress rule 200 action permit
Bind the egress IPv4 ACL to host representor port pf0hpf_if of BlueField in the outbound direction:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl2_egress outbound
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv config apply
NVUE IPv6 ACLs Example
The following is an example of an ingress IPv6 ACL that permits traffic with matching dest-ip and protocol tcp ingress on port pf0hpf_if:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl5_ingress type ipv6
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl5_ingress rule 100 match ip protocol tcp
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl5_ingress rule 100 match ip dest-ip 48:2034::80:9
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl5_ingress rule 100 action permit
Bind the ingress IPv6 ACL to host representor port pf0hpf_if of BlueField in the inbound direction:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl5_ingress inbound
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv config apply
The following is an example of an egress IPv6 ACL that permits traffic with matching source-ip and protocol tcp egressing out of port pf0hpf_if:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl6_egress type ipv6
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl6_egress rule 101 match ip protocol tcp
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl6_egress rule 101 match ip source-ip 48:2034::80:9
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl6_egress rule 101 action permit
Bind the egress IPv6 ACL to host representor port pf0hpf_if of BlueField in the outbound direction:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl6_egress outbound
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv config apply
NVUE MAC ACLs Example
The following is an example of an ingress MAC ACL that permits traffic with matching source-mac and dest-mac ingressing to port pf0hpf_if:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl3_ingress type mac
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl3_ingress rule 1 match mac source-mac 00:00:00:00:00:0a
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl3_ingress rule 1 match mac dest-mac 00:00:00:00:00:0b
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl3_ingress inbound
Bind the ingress MAC ACL to host representor port pf0hpf_if of BlueField in the inbound direction:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl3_ingress inbound
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv config apply
The following is an example of an egress MAC ACL that permits traffic with matching source-mac and dest-mac egressing out of port pf0hpf_if:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl4_egress type mac
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl4_egress rule 2 match mac source-mac 00:00:00:00:00:0b
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl4_egress rule 2 match mac dest-mac 00:00:00:00:00:0a
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set acl acl4_egress rule 2 action permit
Bind the egress MAC ACL to host representor port pf0hpf_if of BlueField in the outbound direction:
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv set interface pf0hpf_if acl acl4_egress outbound
root@hbn01-host01:~# nv config apply
Flat Files (cl-acltool) Examples for Stateless ACLs
For the same examples cited above, the following are the corresponding ACL rules which must be configured under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> followed by invoking cl-acltool -i. The rules in /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> are configured using Linux iptables/ip6tables/ebtables.
Flat Files IPv4 ACLs Example
The following example configures an ingress IPv4 ACL rule matching with DHCP request under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> with the ingress interface as the host representor of BlueField followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[iptables]
## ACL acl1_ingress in dir inbound on interface pf1vf1_if ##
-t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-in pf1vf1_if -p udp --sport 68 --dport 67 -j ACCEPT
The following example configures an egress IPv4 ACL rule matching with DHCP reply under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> with the egress interface as the host representor of BlueField followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[iptables]
## ACL acl2_egress in dir outbound on interface pf1vf1_if ##
-t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-out pf1vf1_if -p udp --sport 67 --dport 68 -j ACCEPT
Flat File IPv6 ACLs Example
The following example configures an ingress IPv6 ACL rule matching with dest-ip and tcp protocol under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> with the ingress interface as the host representor of BlueField followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[ip6tables]
## ACL acl5_ingress in dir inbound on interface pf0hpf_if ##
-t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-in pf0hpf_if -d 48:2034::80:9 -p tcp -j ACCEPT
The following example configures an egress IPv6 ACL rule matching with source-ip and tcp protocol under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> with the egress interface as the host representor of BlueField followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[ip6tables]
## ACL acl6_egress in dir outbound on interface pf0hpf_if ##
-t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-out pf0hpf_if -s 48:2034::80:9 -p tcp -j ACCEPT
Flat Files MAC ACLs Example
The following example configures an ingress MAC ACL rule matching with source-mac and dest-mac under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> with the ingress interface as the host representor of BlueField followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[ebtables]
## ACL acl3_ingress in dir inbound on interface pf0hpf_if ##
-t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-in pf0hpf_if -s 00:00:00:00:00:0a/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -d 00:00:00:00:00:0b/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -j ACCEPT
The following example configures an egress MAC ACL rule matching with source-mac and dest-mac under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> with egress interface as host representor of BlueField followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[ebtables]
## ACL acl4_egress in dir outbound on interface pf0hpf_if ##
-t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-out pf0hpf_if -s 00:00:00:00:00:0b/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -d 00:00:00:00:00:0a/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -j ACCEPT
Stateful ACLs
Stateful ACLs facilitate monitoring and tracking traffic flows to enforce per-flow traffic filtering (unlike stateless ACLs which filter traffic on a per-packet basis). HBN supports stateful ACLs using reflexive ACL mechanism. Reflexive ACL mechanism is used to allow initiation of connections from "within" the network to "outside" the network and allow only replies to the initiated connections from "outside" the network (or vice versa).
HBN supports stateful ACL configuration for IPv4 traffic. Stateful ACL configuration is supported for TCP, UDP, and ICMP protocols.
Stateful ACLs can be applied for native routed traffic (north-south underlay routed traffic in EVPN deployments), EVPN bridged traffic (east-west overlay bridged/L2 traffic in EVPN deployments) and EVPN routed traffic (east-west overlay routed traffic in EVPN deployments). Stateful ACLs applied for native routed traffic are called "Native-L3 stateful ACLs". Stateful ACLs applied for EVPN bridged traffic and EVPN routed traffic are called "EVPN-L2 stateful ACLs" and "EVPN-L3 stateful ACLs", respectively.
Stateful ACLs in HBN are enabled by default. To enable stateful ACL functionality, use the following NVUE commands:
root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set system reflexive-acl enable
root@hbn03-host00:~# nv config apply
If using flat-file configuration (and not NVUE), edit the file /etc/cumulus/nl2docad.d/acl.conf and set the knob rflx.reflexive_acl_enable to TRUE. To apply this change, execute:
root@hbn03-host00:~# supervisorctl start nl2doca-reload
NVUE Example for Stateful ACLs
The following is an example of allowing HTTP (TCP) connection originated by the host, where BlueField is hosted, to an HTTP server (with the IP address 11.11.11.11) on an external network. Two sets of ACLs matching with CONNTRACK state must be configured for a CONNTRACK entry to be established in the kernel which would be offloaded to hardware:
Configure an ACL rule matching TCP/HTTP connection/flow details with CONNTRACK state of NEW, ESTABLISHED and bind it to the SVI in the inbound direction.
Configure an ACL rule matching TCP/HTTP connection/flow details with CONNTRACK state of ESTABLISHED and bind it to the SVI in the outbound direction.
Stateful ACLs should be bound to a physical interface. In this example, the physical interface is pf1vf7_if.
Configure the ingress ACL rule:
root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host rule 11 action permit root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host rule 11 match conntrack new root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host rule 11 match conntrack established root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host rule 11 match ip dest-ip 11.11.11.11/32 root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host rule 11 match ip dest-port 80 root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host rule 11 match ip protocol tcp root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host type ipv4
Bind this ACL to the physical interface in the inbound direction:
root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set interface pf1vf7_if acl allow_tcp_conn_from_host inbound root@hbn03-host00:~# nv config apply
Configure the egress ACL rule:
root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_resp_from_server rule 21 action permit root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_resp_from_server rule 21 match conntrack established root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_resp_from_server rule 21 match ip protocol tcp root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set acl allow_tcp_resp_from_server type ipv4 root@hbn03-host00:~# nv config apply
Bind this ACL to the physical interface in the outbound direction:
root@hbn03-host00:~# nv set interface pf1vf7_if acl allow_tcp_resp_from_server outbound root@hbn03-host00:~# nv config apply
Flat Files (cl-acltool) Example for Stateful ACLs
For the same NVUE example for stateful ACLs cited above (HTTP server at IP address 11.11.11.11 on an external network), the following are the corresponding ACL rules which must be configured under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/<rule_name.rules> followed by invoking cl-acltool -i to install the rules in BlueField hardware.
Configure an ingress ACL rule matching with TCP flow details and CONNTRACK state of NEW, ESTABLISHED under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/stateful_acl.rules with the ingress interface as the SVI followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[iptables] ## ACL allow_tcp_conn_from_host in dir inbound on interface pf1vf7_if ## -t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-in pf1vf7_if -p tcp –d 11.11.11.11/32 --dport 80 -m conntrack --ctstate EST,NEW -j ACCEPT -m mark --mark 0xdead
Configure an egress ACL rule matching the TCP flow and CONNTRACK state of ESTABLISHED, RELATED under /etc/cumulus/acl/policy.d/stateful_acl.rules file with the egress interface as SVI followed by invoking cl-acltool -i:
[iptables] ## ACL allow_tcp_resp_from_server in dir outbound on interface pf1vf7_if ## -t filter -A FORWARD -m physdev --physdev-out pf1vf7_if -p tcp -s 11.11.11.11/32 --sport 80 -m conntrack --ctstate EST -j ACCEPT -m mark --mark 0xdead
DHCP Relay on HBN
DHCP is a client server protocol that automatically provides IP hosts with IP addresses and other related configuration information. A DHCP relay (agent) is a host that forwards DHCP packets between clients and servers. DHCP relays forward requests and replies between clients and servers that are not on the same physical subnet.
DHCP relay can be configured using either flat file (supervisord configuration) or through NVUE.
Configuration
HBN is a non-systemd based container. Therefore, the DHCP relay must be configured as explained in the following subsections.
Flat File Configuration (Supervisord)
The HBN initialization script installs default configuration files on BlueField in /var/lib/hbn/etc/supervisor/conf.d/. BlueField directory is mounted to /etc/supervisor/conf.d which achieves configuration persistence.
By default, DHCP relay is disabled. Default configuration applies to one instance of DHCPv4 relay and DHCPv6 relay in the default VRF.
NVUE Configuration
The user can use NVUE to configure and maintain DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 relays with CLI and REST API. NVUE generates all the required configurations and maintains the relay service.
DHCPv4 Relay Configuration
NVUE Example
The following configuration starts a relay service which listens for the DHCP messages on p0_if, p1_if, and vlan482 and relays the requests to DHCP server 10.89.0.1 with gateway-interface as lo.
nv set service dhcp-relay default gateway-interface lo
nv set service dhcp-relay default interface p0_if
nv set service dhcp-relay default interface p1_if
nv set service dhcp-relay default interface vlan482 downstream
nv set service dhcp-relay default server 10.89.0.1
Flat Files Example
[program: isc-dhcp-relay-default]
command = /usr/sbin/dhcrelay --nl -d -i p0_if -i p1_if -id vlan482 -U lo 10.89.0.1
autostart = true
autorestart = unexpected
startsecs = 3
startretries = 3
exitcodes = 0
stopsignal = TERM
stopwaitsecs = 3
Where:
Option |
Description |
-i |
Network interface to listen on for requests and replies |
-iu |
Upstream network interface |
-id |
Downstream network interface |
-U [address]%%ifname |
Gateway IP address interface. Use %% for IP%%ifname. % is used as an escape character. |
--loglevel-debug |
Debug logging. Location: /var/log/syslog. |
-a |
Append an agent option field to each request before forwarding it to the server with default values for circuit-id and remote-id |
-r remote-id |
Set a custom remote ID string (max of 255 chars). To use this option, you must also enable the -a option. |
--use-pif-circuit-id |
Set the underlying physical interface which receives the packet as the circuit-id. To use this option you must also enable the -a option. |
DHCPv4 Relay Option 82
NVUE Example
The following NVUE command is used to enable option 82 insertion in DHCP packets with default values:
nv set service dhcp-relay default agent enable on
To provide a custom remote-id (e.g., host10) using NVUE:
nv set service dhcp-relay default agent remote-id host10
To use the underlying physical interface on which the request is received as circuit-id using NVUE:
nv set service dhcp-relay default agent use-pif-circuit-id enable on
Flat Files Example
[program: isc-dhcp-relay-default]
command = /usr/sbin/dhcrelay --nl -d -i p0_if -i p1_if -id vlan482 -U lo -a --use-pif-circuit-id -r host10 10.89.0.1
autostart = true
autorestart = unexpected
startsecs = 3
startretries = 3
exitcodes = 0
stopsignal = TERM
stopwaitsecs = 3
DHCPv6 Relay Configuration
NVUE Example
The following NVUE command starts the DHCPv6 Relay service which listens for DHCPv6 requests on vlan482 and sends relayed DHCPv6 requests towards p0_if and p1_if.
nv set service dhcp-relay6 default interface downstream vlan482
nv set service dhcp-relay6 default interface upstream p0_if
nv set service dhcp-relay6 default interface upstream p1_if
Flat Files Example
[program: isc-dhcp-relay6-default]
command = /usr/sbin/dhcrelay --nl -6 -d -l vlan482 -u p0_if -u p1_if
autostart = true
autorestart = unexpected
startsecs = 3
startretries = 3
exitcodes = 0
stopsignal = TERM
stopwaitsecs = 3
Where:
Option |
Description |
-l [address]%%ifname[#index] |
Downstream interface. Use %% for IP%%ifname. % is used as escape character. |
-u [address]%%ifname |
Upstream interface. Use %% for IP%%ifname. % is used as escape character. |
-6 |
IPv6 |
--loglevel-debug |
Debug logging located at /var/log/syslog |
DHCP Relay and VRF Considerations
DHCP relay can be spawned inside a VRF context to handle the DHCP requests in that VRF. There can only be 1 instance each of DHCPv4 relay and DHCPv6 relay per VRF. To achieve that, the user can follow these guidelines:
DHCPv4 on default VRF:
/usr/sbin/dhcrelay --nl -i <interface> -U [address]%%<interface> <server_ip>
DHCPv4 on VRF:
/usr/sbin/ip vrf exec <vrf> /usr/sbin/dhcrelay –-nl -i <interface> -U [address]%%<interface> <server_ip>
DHCPv6 on default VRF:
/usr/sbin/dhcrelay --nl -6 -l <interface> -u <interface>
DHCPv6 on VRF:
/usr/sbin/ip vrf exec <vrf> /usr/sbin/dhcrelay --nl -6 -l <interface> -u <interface>
