10 ACI L4 L7 Service Insertion Overview
11 Traditional Network Service Insertion Challenges Router Configure Network to insert Firewall FW Configure firewall network parameters Service insertion takes days vfw Router Switch LB Configure firewall rules as required by the application Configure Load Balancer Network Parameters Configure Router to steer traffic to/from Load Balancer Network configuration is time consuming and error prone Difficult to track configuration on services Server Service Insertion In traditional Networks Configure Load Balancer as required by the application F5 Networks, Inc 11
12 APIC L4 L7 Service Integration TENANT (HR) Traditional 3-Tier Application F/W ADC WEB WEB WEB WEB ADC APP APP APP APP DB DB DB DB APPLICATION NETWORK PROFILE APPLICATION PROFILE (3 TIER APP) EPGS ARE DEFINED HERE endpoint Group (EPG) collection of bare metal servers, VMs, vnic Ex: WEB EPG - all web servers (bare metal or VMs) are grouped into this EPG Ex: APP EPG - all APP servers (bare metal or VMs) are grouped into this EPG NETWORKING POLICY CONNECTIVITY FOR THE TENANT L2-L3 SECURITY POLICY (POLICY DECISION IS DONE HERE) FILTERS, QOS, TRAFFIC STEERING Contract services between the WEB and APP EPG (web graph, HTTP graph) Ex: APP is a provider and WEB is the consumer Define services within a contract: FW, ADC in this example ADC defined TROUBLESHOOTING POLICY SPAN, ERSPAN ETC MONITORING POLICY EVENTS, SNMP L4-L7 SERVICES POLICY DEFINE L4-L7 SERVICE POLICY Service Graph (Ex: WEB graph utilizes L7 SLB) Logical Device Cluster F5 Networks, Inc 12
13 F5 Device Package: Definition APIC requires a Device Package to communicate with service devices. A Device Package is a zip file containing two parts: Device Specification (xml): The configuration of the APIC is represented as an object model consisting of a large number of Managed Objects (MOs). A Device type is defined by a tree of MOs with a Meta Device (MDev) at the root. Configuration through UI or North Bound APIs APIC EPG level L4-L7 config Service Graph Function Node level L4-L7 config DeviceScript (py): The integration between the APIC and a Device is performed by a DeviceScript, which maps APIC events function calls defined in Device Script Python Device Script Device Package icontrol / SouthBound API BIG-IP Physical or VE Device Specification <dev type= f5 > <service type= slb > <param name= vip > <dev ident= <validator= ip <hidden= no > <locked= yes > F5 Networks, Inc 13
14 Service Graph: Definition Abstract graph concept mapping to Service Graph Consumes Functions rendered on the same device Service Graph: web-application Provides EXT EXT EXT EXT Func: Firewall Func: SSL offload Func: Load Balancing WEB WEB WEB WEB EPG - EXT Terminals Connectors Terminals EPG - WEB Firewall params Permit ip tcp * dest-ip <vip> dest-port 80 Deny ip udp * SSL params Ipaddress <vip> port 80 Load-Balancing params virtual-ip <vip> port 80 Lb-aglorithm: round-robin Service graph is an ordered set of functions between a set of terminals e-g; Firewall Function, Load balancer Function A function has one or more connectors Network connectivity like VLAN/VNID tag is assigned to these connectors A function within a graph may require one or more parameters Parameters can be scoped by an EPG or an application profile or tenant context Parameter values can be locked from further changes F5 Networks, Inc 14
15 Application Construct F5 Service Insertion Consume Provide Web Farm provide services to External Users; Policy Contract defines relationship between Web Farm and Users EPG EXT Ext Users EPG WEB Web Server Users assign to EPG EXT Web Farm assign to EPG WEB Users accessing the Web Servers start stage 1.. stage N end graph Service Graph Insertion at the Policy Contract Subject level inst inst. inst inst Node Service Graph contains Function Nodes, Virtual Server is a Function Node firewall ADC: Virtual Server Logical Device Cluster Concrete Device Concrete Device F5 BIG-IPs are Concrete Devices belong to a Logical Device Cluster that enables ADC as a Function Node within a Service Graph F5 Networks, Inc 15

26 F5 BIG-IP LTM Integration with Cisco ACI Using Device Package and ACI 1.0(2m)
27 Terminology: APIC Tenant Single Context / BIG-IP Partition Tenant is a container for policies (filters, contracts, bridge domains and application profiles) BIG-IP partition is equivalent to a single context ACI tenant A function node identifies a set of network service functions that are required by an application BIG-IP Virtual Server is equivalent to service graph function node F5 Networks, Inc 27
28 Terminology: APIC Service Graph Config pushed to BIG-IP APIC Service Graph Function Node Config Parameters, for example, webpool, will be pushed from APIC to BIG-IP In this example, BIG-IP populates Pool configuration from APIC. F5 Networks, Inc 28
29 Device Package Feature: Referencing irules APIC can reference irules that resides in BIG-IP Common partition BIG-IP is responsible for irules management, including creation / modification / validation F5 Networks, Inc 29
30 F5 supports TRUE Multiple Graph Multiple Tenancy Multiple Virtual Servers for different applications in the different BIG-IP partitions/apic Tenants, sharing the same device Tenant N APIC partition: apic7890 Route Domain N Partition created by APIC inside BIG-IP is prefixed by the apic, _ tenant-id to represent the partition in F5 (for ex : apic_5437) F5 demonstrate true multi-tenancy using different partitions for each tenant in APIC Tenant B Client EPG Tenant A Client EPG APIC partition: Virtual Server apic Route Domain B Virtual Server APIC partition: Virtual Server 1 2 apic1234 Route Domain A App EPG 1 App EPG App EPG 1 2 Each partition has been assigned individual route domain for L3 separation Client EPG Virtual Virtual Server 1 Server 2 App EPG App EPG 1 2 Virtual Servers created by APIC inside BIG- IP is prefixed by the apic, _ tenant_id _ graph (for ex : apic_5437_3456) Virtual Server 2 App EPG 2 Single BIG-IP physical F5 Networks, Inc 30
31 Mixed Mode Support Client EPG Contract: Including L4-L7 services Server EPG Client EPG Contract BIG-IP Ext EPG BIG-IP Int EPG Contract Server EPG APIC APIC Partition Configuration pushed and populated by APIC. User does not modify this partition. APIC will perform L4-L7 service insertion on this partition. BIG-IP created Partition: User can continue to use partition created by BIG-IP, they appeared as separate EPG to APIC. Network functionality will be managed by APIC through the Fabric, where L4-L7 will be managed by BIG-IP. User can continue to use custom iapp and irules in this scenario. Common Partition User can define custom irules under Common partition and they can be called by APIC, BIG-IP Physical or Virtual F5 Networks, Inc 31
