Network Architecture Design

[stephane-segning]

Part of #63

• Design and document separate networks for Management, Storage, and Provider traffic.
• Plan and configure MTU settings for all network segments.
• Implement a high-availability (HA) baseline with 3x controller nodes.
• Configure Neutron with ML2/OVN as the backend.

Understood. I’ll prepare:

• A detailed network segmentation plan (management / storage / provider) including physical & logical layout, VLANs, interface mappings.
• MTU recommendations for each segment, with verification steps across hosts, switches & providers.
• A 3‑node high availability control plane baseline, including redundancy, failover, quorum, and required services.
• Neutron configured with ML2/OVN backend: full configuration of northbound & southbound DBs, gateway chassis, logical routers/switches, availability zones, and external network connectivity.

Before we can move forward on this ticket, we need to finalize and gain sign-off on the detailed Physical and Logical Architecture diagrams. Specifically, confirming the interfaces (ensX mapping), bonding modes, and the specific IP/VLAN ranges is crucial. The current tasks designing networks, setting MTU, and implementing HA are entirely dependent on these fixed architectural decisions. Let's make that confirmation the immediate priority.
