Learn how you bring secure, scalable, available and open software defined networking to Docker containers managed by OpenStack. This session will cover how Docker virtual networks function, how to plumb them into the virtual network fabric and reliably assign information such as IP addresses, virtual interfaces and more. In addition, this session will also cover how to securely wrap Docker containers using security policies and encryption.

17. What I Will Be Doing
17
1. Provision a network
2. Spawn a VM and a Docker container on the same network
3. Validate connectivity across hosts and Nova drivers
4. Create router and connect private network to external network and ping
openstack.org
5. Associate Floating IPs and check connectivity
6. Update Security Groups and see network topology disallow traffic.

19. What I Just Did
19
1. Provisioned a network
2. Spawned a VM and a Docker container on two different hosts on same
network
3. Validated connectivity across hosts and Nova drivers
4. Created a router and connected private network to external network and
ping’ed openstack.org
5. Associated Floating IPs and checked connectivity
6. Updated Security Groups and saw network topology disallow traffic.
20. What’s next?

• Contribute to Magnum-Networking (Neutron)
• Provide with common Neutron API for Containers Networking
