6 1 VCM overview Virtual Application Network (VAN) Connection Manager (VCM) and IMC Virtual Network Management (VNM) are typically used together to meet the growing demand on virtual network management. VNM manages VMware ESX/ESXi and Microsoft Hyper-V virtual networks (see HP IMC Base Platform Administrator Guide), and VCM manages dynamic migration of virtual machine (VM) network configuration and VM traffic. VCM is an efficient solution for physical network configuration migration. It monitors VM startup, shutdown, and migration processes, and performs physical network configuration migration for VMs according to their latest access locations. It provides seamless collaboration between physical and virtual networks. When a VM migrates, VCM automatically performs network configuration migration for the VM and eliminates the need for a network administrator to reconfigure the access switch for the VM. Functional modules VCM comprises the following functional modules: Edge Switch List Manages all edge switches. Edge switches are switches that directly connect to physical servers. VCM performs dynamic network configuration migration only for VMs that access the network through an edge switch. VSI Type List Manages VM network configurations as service units. The service units include: Bandwidth control VM access right VM access priority (specific clients) VM access priority (all clients) Network List Allocates network resources. Operators can assign one VLAN ID to each network, and perform hierarchical management of VSI types. When creating a connection, the operator can bind the VSI type version of only the selected network to a virtual network interface card (vnic). Connection List Manages VSI-type-version/vNIC bindings as connections. As the core of VCM, the connection implements dynamic migration of VM network configuration. When a VM is migrated, VCM removes the VM network configuration by deleting the deployed connection from the source switch, and deploys the network configuration to the destination switch by deploying the connection. Life Cycle Report Displays the VM migration history and detailed online/offline operations performed by VCM. Plug-In Management A vmanager plug-in integrates connection management into vmanager servers after it is registered for those servers. With the connection management function, vmanager administrators can add, modify, delete, deploy, and undeploy connections on the vmanager servers. 1

7 Network diagram As shown in Figure 1, an enterprise has four physical servers, on each of which one or more VMs are created. VMs access the enterprise network through Switch A or Switch B. IMC VNM manages the virtual networks, and VCM provides dynamic network configuration migration for VMs. Figure 1 Network diagram The administrator must complete the following configuration tasks on VCM before VCM can perform network configuration migration for VM A: Add Switch A and Switch B as edge switches. Configure the VSI type of VM A, including bandwidth control and access control. Bind the VSI type version to VM A's vnic as a connection. VM A migrates from Switch B to Switch A. VCM performs network configuration migration for VM A by deleting its network configuration from Switch B and then deploying its network configuration to Switch A. Application environments VCM implementation is based on 802.1Qbg. VCM can be applied to a Virtual Ethernet Bridge (VEB) environment or an Edge Virtual Bridge (EVB) environment, depending on VM access methods. In VCM, a VEB environment is based on the VEB solution defined in 802.1Qbg, and an EVB environment is based on Virtual Ethernet Port Aggregation (VEPA) or multi-channel VEPA solution defined in 802.1Qbg. VEB and EVB environments differ in the following aspects: They require different conditions for connection deploy or undeploy operations in VCM. A VEB environment supports manual deploy and undeploy operations of connections, but an EVB environment does not. 2

8 They have different configuration requirements for physical servers and edge switches. For more information, see "Configuring the edge switches and physical servers." VEB environment features In the VEB environment, VCM deploys or undeploys connections in any of the following cases: When VNM discovers a VM, VCM deploys the predefined connection for the VM. When VNM detects removal of a VM, VCM undeploys the connection for the VM. When a VM migrates, VCM removes the VM network configuration by deleting the deployed connection from the source switch, and deploys the network configuration to the destination switch by deploying the connection. Operators can manually deploy or undeploy connections in this environment. VCM supports virtualization software such as VMware ESX/ESXi and Windows Hypver-V, and supports all switch models. VMware ESX/ESXi requires no plug-in. To support Windows Hypver-V, VCM must work with the VNM agent plug-in and LLDP plug-in. For information about installing the plug-ins, see HP Intelligent Management Center Installation Guide. VCM mostly applies to the VEB environment. EVB environment features In the EVB environment, VCM deploys or undeploys connections in any of the following cases: When a VM starts, VCM deploys the predefined connection for the VM after receiving a request from the edge switch. When a VM stops, VCM undeploys the connection for the VM after receiving a request from the edge switch. When a VM migrates, VCM removes the VM network configuration by deleting the deployed connection from the source switch, and deploys the network configuration to the destination switch by deploying the connection. Edge switches in the EVB environment must support the EVB feature, and you must configure the edge switches before configuring VCM. For how to configure edge switches, see "Configuring edge switches and physical servers in the EVB environment." In addition, virtualization software must support 802.1Qbg. Managing network configuration migration in VCM This section describes how to configure the VCM component, edge switches, and physical servers to manage physical network configuration migration in VCM. Prerequisites 1. The prerequisites for managing network configuration migration in VCM are: 2. Deploy VNM and ACL management features of the IMC Platform, because VCM is dependent on these features. For information about installing and deploying the IMC Platform, see HP Intelligent Management Center Installation Guide. 3

9 IMPORTANT: VCM does not support distributed deployment, and must be deployed on the IMC master server. 3. Add edge switches and physical servers to IMC for management. For more information, see the chapter on resource management in HP IMC Platform Administrator Guide. After you configure SOAP parameters for physical servers managed by IMC, VNM automatically obtains information about vswitches and VMs of the server. VNM cannot obtain IP addresses of Windows Hyper-V VMs, and you must add their IP addresses to IMC and create IP/MAC bindings for VMs in IMC Terminal Access. Configuring VCM 1. To configure VCM: Add the switches managed by IMC as edge switches to VCM. For more information, see 3 Edge switch management" 2. Add a network. For more information, see "Adding a network." 3. Add a VSI type and release a VSI type version. For more information, see "4 VSI type management." 4. Add a connection. For more information, see "Adding a connection." 5. (Optional.) In the VEB environment, register the vcenter plug-in for VMware software on vcenter servers. After registration, vcenter administrators can add, modify, and delete connections on the vcenter servers. For more information, see "Registering the vcenter plug-in." Configuring the edge switches and physical servers For VCM to implement dynamic migration of VM network configuration, you must configure the edge switch and physical server. Configuring edge switches in the VEB environment Configure the interface connecting an edge switch to a physical server as a trunk port. When a vswitch uses multiple NICs to the same edge switch, it combines interfaces on the edge switch into one aggregate interface. In this environment, no configuration is required on the physical server. Configuring edge switches and physical servers in the EVB environment In the EVB environment, configure edge switches as follows: Configure the interface connecting an edge switch to a physical server as a trunk port, and enable the EVB feature on the port. Complete LLDP basic configurations: Enable LLDP globally. Enable the interface to receive and send LLDP packets with EVB TLVs and CDCP TLVs. Create a VLAN to forward VM traffic. 4

10 Complete basic EVB configurations: Globally configure the default VDP management address as the IP address of the IMC master server. Enable EVB on the interface. Configure the VDP keepalive timer. For information on configuring a physical server, see the server configuration document. 5

11 2 VCM home page widget When VCM is deployed, operators can add the VCM View TopN widget to the IMC home page to view ACL utilization of each edge switch and connection utilization of each network which VCM manages.

13 Viewing the VCM View TopN widget As shown in Figure 2, the VCM View TopN widget on the home page displays ACL utilization in a pie chart and connection utilization in a line and bar chart. Figure 2 VCM View TopN widget layout ACL utilization The ACL utilization pie chart lies on the upper left of the widget. It displays the total number of ACLs supported and the remaining number of configurable ACLs on each edge switch that VCM manages. Figure 3 ACL utilization pie chart Each slice of the pie chart represents an edge switch. The size of a slice depends on the total number of ACLs that the operator specifies for the edge switch. A larger slice represents an edge switch that is configured to support more ACLs. The slice colors randomly change each time the VCM View TopN widget refreshes. The pie chart comprises an inner circular area and an outer circular area. When placing the cursor over a slice in the inner circular area, you can view the label of the edge switch and the total number of ACLs specified for the switch. When placing the cursor over a slice in the outer circular area, you can view the remaining ACLs on the switch in number and percentage. 8

14 Connection utilization As in Figure 2, a line and bar chart is located on the lower part of the widget to show connection utilization. Each bar represents the connection utilization of a network. VCM counts numbers of the following network connection types: undeployed, deployed, and remained. It also counts VSI types and displays the network VLAN ID. The vertical axis represents the number of connections, and the numbers on it change along with the connection number. Colored bars represent different connection types as shown in the following: Connections Undeployed Connections Deployed Remaining Connections To view information about connections and VSI types: The number on each colored bar represents the number of a specific type of connections on the network. Place the cursor over a colored area to view the percentage of connections and the VLAN ID of the network. Place the cursor over the VSI node on a bar to view the number of VSI types and the VLAN ID of a specific network. 9

15 3 Edge switch management The following topics provide some functions on the edge switch management including how to manage the edge switch in the VCM. Edge switch overview The edge switches connect to the end-user local area networks (LANs) or to the Internet service provider (ISP) networks. Edge switches can be routers, routing switches, integrated access devices (IADs), multiplexers, and a variety of MAN and WAN devices that provide entry points into enterprise or service provider core networks. Edge switches are also referred to as access nodes or service nodes. In IMC platform, the edge switch which connects with the physical server can manage the VSI type of VMs. Currently, the VCM module provides four service units for the VM management. It includes bandwidth control, VM access control, prioritize access to VM (specific clients), and prioritize access to VM (all clients). When a virtual machine accesses the network on the edge switch, the vnic, and VSI type of the virtual machine can be bound. Viewing edge switch list The Edge Switch list page provides the basic information of edge switch. In this page, you can view the details of edge switch and do operations on the edge switches. To view the edge switch list: 1. Click Resource > VAN Connection Manager. 2. In the navigation tree, click Edge Switch to open the Edge Switch List page. The Edge Switch List page appears. You can view the following information: Status Indicate the warning status of the current edge switch. It includes the following seven levels: Critical Major Minor Warning Normal Unknown Unmanaged For more information, see HP IMC Base Platform Administrator Guide. Device Label Indicates the device label of the equipment in IMC includes name and IP address. Connection Statistics Indicates the statistics of the connection deployment status of the VMs inside of the physical servers. The physical servers connect with the current edge switch. 10

16 Connections Deployed Indicates the number of the connections that are deployed on the edge switch. When the number of connection is not 0, move the pointer to the figure, the window with the VM summary information pops up. The information includes the vnic of the VM, the VM name, and the name of the physical server which VM locates. Connections Not Deployed Indicates the number of the connections that are not deployed on the edge switch. If the figure is not 0, move the pointer to the figure, the window with the VM details pops up. The information includes the vnic of the VM, the VM name, and the name of the physical server which VM locates. Service Units Indicates a set of the control commands integrated by VSI type. You can deploy the service units on a specified edge switch to control the VMs running on the physical server. The service units include four types: Bandwidth Control VM Access Control Prioritize Access to VM (Specific Clients) Prioritize Access to VM (All Clients) The statistic figure 4 in the list stands for the four types of the service units, not a real statistics figure for the current edge switch. For more information, see "Service units for customizing VSI type." Operation Indicates the following operations: Setting ACL Number range Move the pointer to the ACL Number range icon to view the ACL number range of the current edge switch. Click the ACL Number range icon to set the custom ACL number range for the current edge switch. Some devices do not support this function, such as HP E series equipment.

24 4 VSI type management VSI type overview A VSI type integrates a set of service unit settings for administrators to perform the Quality of Service (QoS) management and access control for VM. With VCM, you can deploy a VSI type on a specified edge switch to control the VM running on the physical servers that connect to it. The VCM module provides the following service units for you to customize a VSI type: Bandwidth Control Defines the guaranteed bandwidth for traffic between clients and the VM. VM Access Control Defines the clients that are allowed to access the VM. Prioritize Access to VM (Specific Clients) Prioritizes packets sent from specific clients to the VM. This priority setting takes precedence over the priority set in Prioritize Access to VM (All Clients). Prioritize Access to VM (All Clients) Defines the default priority for packets sent from all clients to the VM. VCM enables you to use the service units to customize a VSI type. You can then deploy the VSI type to control the bandwidth, access authority, and packet priority for the VM. To customize a VSI type that meets your VM management requirements, you can select one or more service units, and configure multiple sets of parameters for them. Also, the VCM module provides an efficient way to manage the VSI type. In VCM, a VSI type is always used as a template, with which you can generate multiple versions for the VSI type to combine with different VM as required. When you customize a VSI type, you can modify a VSI type that has similar service unit configurations, and then release a new version for the updated VSI type. This helps VSI type classification and management, and also increases your efficiency in configuring VSI types for VM that have similar service requirements. As the physical network configuration, VSI type can perform QoS management and access control for the VM. During a VM migration, in order for the VSI type to automatically migrate with the corresponding VM, the VSI type needs to be bound to the vnic of the target VM through connection configurations. For more information, see "6 Connection management." Viewing the VSI Type List The VSI type list displays VSI types and their versions in a tree hierarchy that displays a VSI type as parent and its versions as children. In the list, you can view the status, the network to which the VSI type is assigned, and other details of the VSI types and their versions. To view the VSI type list: 1. Click Resource > VAN Connection Manager. 2. In the navigation tree, click VSI Type. The defined VSI types and their versions are listed in the VSI Type List page where you can view the following information: Name Indicates the name of the VSI type. 19

25 Status Displays version information. Move the pointer to the Status icon. The Version Information menu shows the information of the top 10 versions, including the version name and number of connections to which the version is bound. This field also displays the status of VSI type versions, which includes: Bound When a version is bound to a vnic of a VM, the Bound icon displays in the Status field of the version. Not Bound When a version is not bound to any vnic of a VM, the Not Bound icon displays in the Status field of the version. Network Displays network information. Move the pointer to the Network icon, and the Network menu shows the information of the network to which you assigned the VSI type.

OUTBOUND indicates the packets sent from the VM to the client. You also can select BOTH to control the packets of both directions. Priority Setting Indicate the protocol of the packets for which you want to set the priority. Priority Value Specify a priority level for the packets. Filtering Direction Specify the direction of the packets to which you want to set priority. INBOUND indicates the packets sent from the client to the VM. OUTBOUND indicates the packets sent from the VM to the client. You also can select BOTH to control the packets of both directions. Priority Setting Indicate the protocol of the packets for which you want to set the priority. Priority Value Specify a priority level for the packets. NOTE: If you want to prioritize access to VM, HP recommends that you only select one of the service units Prioritize Access to VM (Specific Clients) and Prioritize Access to VM (All Clients) to set the priority for the packets access. You cannot use both service units to set the priority. When you configure a VSI type, you can select one or more service units according to your VM management requirements. Also, you can configure multiple sets of parameters for the service units you select, and each set can be added as a service rule. When you configure multiple service rules, ensure that every service rule contains the same service units. For example, you have selected the Bandwidth Control and VM Access Control service units to set a service rule. When you want to add a new service rule for the VSI type, you only can use the two service units to create the new service rule. When you use a different set of service units to create a new service rule, the existing service rules are removed. 23

29 Example of adding a VSI type As a network administrator, you are assigned to use VCM to customize a VSI type for the VM used by the Research and Development (R&D) department and the Testing lab of the company. For information security and resource optimization, the VM have to meet the following requirements: The guaranteed CIR and PIR of the bandwidth for the traffic between the VM and clients are 1024 kbps and 2048 kbps. Only the clients in the R&D department ( /24) and the Testing lab ( /24) can access the VM. Use the DSCP protocol to assign a high priority to the packets sent from the R&D department to the VM.

For more information, see "Undeploying a connection." 4. Click OK to delete the version. The version you delete is removed from the VSI Type list. 28

34 5 Network management As an advanced data exchange technology, VLAN allows a network administrator to logically segment a LAN into different broadcast domains. Each VLAN includes a group of workstations that have the same or similar application requirements. The packets generated by a workstation in a VLAN can only be transmitted through the network resources (ports) within the VLAN, which helps traffic and bandwidth control, simplifies the network management, and improves the network security. The VCM provides a management facility, Network, for assigning ports for transferring the traffic between VM and clients, and the VSI types you can deploy for controlling the traffic between VM and clients. In the VCM, a network can indicate a port through specifying the VLAN ID of the port in the network. Each network can only consume one VLAN ID. When creating a connection, you need to assign a network to the connection. This enables the VM specified in the connection to use the port to send or receive packets to and from the clients. In this way, you can specify a network for the VM that have the same or similar application requirements to improve the management efficiency, or assign the network according to your network plan and the practical requirements. For more information, see "6 Connection management." Another important function of the network management is VSI type assignment. With network management, you can assign one or more VSI types to a specified network, which allows the administrator to deploy the specified VSI types for managing the VM that can use the network to communicate with the clients. In addition, when creating a network, you can authorize one or more operators or operator groups to manage the VSI types assigned to the network. In the VCM, to view and manage the VSI types, you must log on to the IMC base platform as an authorized operator. NOTE: With the network management, you can assign VSI type management privilege for an operator or operator group. You can assign this privilege when you add an operator group in the IMC base platform. For more information, see HP IMC Base Platform Administrator Guide. Viewing network list In the network list, you can view the created networks, and the related information, such as the VLAN ID, the VSI types that the network can manage, and other details of the network. To view the VSI type list: 1. Click Resource > VAN Connection Manager. 2. In the navigation tree, click Network. The created networks are listed in the Network List page. In the network list, you can view the following information: Network Name Indicates the name of the network. 29

35 VLAN ID Indicates the VLAN ID of the port that is assigned to the network. Each network can only consume one VLAN ID. When you select a network for a connection, the VM specified in the connection can communicate with the clients through the corresponding ports. Max. Connections Indicates the maximum number of the connections allowed to be created in the network. When creating a connection, you should specify the network that the connection belongs to. When the number of the connections in the specified network reaches the value defined in this field, you cannot create any new connections in the specified network. For more information, see "Adding a connection." Description Indicates the description of the network. Bandwidth Control Indicates whether or not the connections of the network are specified the guaranteed bandwidth. This field uses the following bars to indicate the different bandwidth control status: Green bar Indicates at least one connection is specified the guaranteed bandwidth in the network. Move the pointer to the bar to view the number of the connections that are specified the guaranteed bandwidth, and the maximum PIR value specified for the connections. In VCM, the bandwidth control of a connection is achieved by configuring the Bandwidth Control service unit for the VSI types that the connection used. Grey bar Indicates at least one connection is not specified the guaranteed bandwidth in the network. Move the pointer to the bar to view the number of the connections that are not specified the guaranteed bandwidth. Blank When there is no connection in the network, this field is left blank. Connection Indicates the number of the connections in the network. This field uses the following bars to indicate the connections of different status: Green bar Move the pointer to the green bar to view the number of the connections that have been deployed in the network. Red bar Move the pointer to the red bar to view the number of the created connections that have not been deployed in the network. Grey bar Move the pointer to the grey bar to view the number of the remaining connections that you can create in the network. For more information, see "Adding a VSI type" and "Adding a connection." Copy Click the Copy icon to copy the configurations of the specified network, which can be a template for you to create a new network. For more information, see "Copying the configuration of a network." Modify Click the Modify icon to modify the configurations of the specified network.

Viewing network details The Network Details page provides the basic information and the VSI type settings of the network. In this page, you can view the detailed configurations of the network. To view the network details: 30

36 1. Click Resource > VAN Connection Manager. 2. In the navigation tree, click Network to open the Network List page. 3. Click the link in the Network Name field of the network for which you want to view details. The Network Details page appears. You can view the following information: Name Indicates the name of the network. VLAN ID Indicates the VLAN ID of the port that is assigned to the network. Each network can only consume one VLAN ID. When you select a network for a connection, the VM specified in the connection can communicate with the clients through the corresponding ports. Max. Connections Indicates the maximum number of the connections allowed to be created in the network. When creating a connection, you should specify the network that the connection belongs to. When the number of the connections in the specified network reaches the value defined in this field, you cannot create any new connections in the specified network. Description Indicates the description of the network. VSI Type Settings Indicates the VSI types that are assigned to the network. Operator List Indicates the operators or operator groups that have the privileges to manage the VSI types that are assigned to the network. In VCM, to view and manage the VSI types, you must log on to the IMC base platform as an authorized operator. Adding a network Before creating a network, the network administrator should plan the network resource in advance. This section introduces the network planning, which is the basis and prerequisite for adding and configuring a network. Network planning In the VCM, a network is a facility for assigning ports for transferring the traffic between VM and clients, as well as the VSI types you can deploy for controlling the traffic between VM and clients. Therefore, the network configuration is based on the network planning in the practical environment. As a network administrator, you should first plan the physical network environment, which includes creating VLANs according to the application requirements, assigning network resources (such as ports), and so on. You also have to identify the service requirements of the VM, which helps you to classify the VSI types, authorize the operators, and so forth. With VCM, you can create networks and assign a VLAN ID to a network according to the VLANs configured in the practical environment. By assigning a network to a connection, the VM specified in the connection can communicate with the clients through the corresponding ports. In addition, you can also classify the VSI types by assigning VSI types to different network. When creating a connection, when you select a network, you can only use the VSI types that are assigned to the network to control the traffic between VM and clients. Another important planning step is to decide which operators or operator groups have the privileges to manage the VSI types that are assigned to a network, which helps the specialization of management authorities. 31

37 Example of adding a network As a network administrator, you are assigned to use VCM to customize a network for a VLAN (VLAN ID is 2). The maximum number of connections is 10.

In this scenario, when you want to delete the network, you should first delete all the connections in the network. 34

40 6 Connection management The Connection management function allows for the binding of a specific VSI Type version into the target vnic of the virtual machine. In a vcloud environment, you can deploy vapp and VMs and create connections for the VMs in IMC, which collaborates with VMware cloud service. Connection overview When the virtual machine starts, stops, or migrates, VCM is able to deploy the connection bound with a VSI Type to the target virtual machine. With this function the administrator can deploy the VSI Type information to the edge switch automatically. Deploying a connection in the VM sends a specific VSI Type configuration to the target edge switch. VCM does not support migration when the MAC address of the vnic has changed. When the virtual machine s vnic changes, you need to create a new connection for the new vnic. The deploy mechanism and process of EVB and VEB are different: In an EVB environment: Deploying or undeploying a connection manually is unavailable. VCM deploys or undeploys the connection every time when the VM starts or stops. In a VEB environment: Deploying or undeploying a connection manually is available. Only in the following three situations can VCM deploy or undeploy a connection automatically: The first time when VNM finds the VM. When the VNM finds that the VM is deleted. When the VM migrates. For more information, see "Deploying a connection." Viewing connection list The connection list displays the detail information of each connection. In the list, you can check many current parameter values, and you also can check their details by entering the corresponding page. To view the connection list: 1.

46 7 Life cycle reports Life cycle reports provide lists to record the VM migrations, and the offline and online operations to migrate the VM network configuration. Introduction to life cycle reports Migration History IMC monitors the migrations of the target VM, and records the information of each migration. VCM displays the details of each migration in the Migration History list, which includes: Source and destination switches Source and destination physical servers Source and destination interfaces Time of the migration Migration results In addition to the Migration History list, you can also view the migration details in a more intuitive way icon view, which helps you easily trace each migration of a VM. Operation List The operation List records the offline and online operations of the VM network configurations. A VM network configuration integrates a set of control commands to perform the QoS management and access control for the target VM. It is deployed on the edge switch that connects to the physical server of the VM. VCM provides the ability to migrate the corresponding network configuration with the VM automatically, and records the configuration offline and online operations related to the VM migrations. The Operation List shows the results of the configuration, offline and online operations, which helps you check whether the VM network configuration migrates successfully. In addition, when a network configuration migration fails, or only partially succeeds, you can view the cause of failure, and manually perform the operation again. Viewing historical record of virtual machine migration via list view VCM provides two modes to view the historical records of the VM migrations: List view Icon view From the Migration History list, you can view the source and destination information of the VM migration, and the result of the VM network configuration migration.
