Create and Provision a Network Fabric using Azure CLI

  • บทความ

This article describes how to create a Network Fabric by using the Azure Command Line Interface (AzCLI). This document also shows you how to check the status, update, or delete a Network Fabric.

Prerequisites

  • An Azure account with an active subscription.
  • Install the latest version of the CLI commands. For information about installing the CLI commands, see Install Azure CLI
  • A Network Fabric controller manages multiple Network Fabrics on the same Azure region.
  • Physical Operator-Nexus instance with cabling as per BoM version.
  • Express Route connectivity between NFC and Operator-Nexus instances.
  • Terminal server pre-configured with username and password installed and configured
  • PE devices pre-configured with necessary VLANs, Route-Targets and IP addresses.
  • Supported SKU information is inventoried here

Steps to Provision a Fabric & Racks

  • Create a Network Fabric by providing racks, server count, SKU & network configuration.
  • Create a Network to Network Interconnect by providing Layer2 & Layer 3 Parameters
  • Update the serial number in the networkDevice resource with the actual serial number on the device.
  • Configure the terminal server with the serial numbers of all the devices.
  • Provision the Network Fabric.

Fabric Configuration

The following table specifies parameters used to create Network Fabric,

$prefix: /subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx/resourceGroups/NFResourceGroupName/providers/Microsoft.ManagedNetworkFabric/networkFabricControllers

Parameter Description Example Required Type
resource-group Name of the resource group "NFResourceGroup" True
location Operator-Nexus Azure region "eastus" True

Create a Network Fabric

Resource group must be created before Network Fabric creation. It's recommended to create a separate resource group for each Network Fabric. Resource group can be created by the following command:

az group create -n NFResourceGroup -l "East US"

Run the following command to create the Network Fabric:


az networkfabric fabric create \ 
--resource-group "NFResourceGroupName" 
--location "<Location>" \
--resource-name "NFName" \
--nf-sku "NFSKU" \
--nfc-id "/subscriptions/xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx/resourceGroups/NFResourceGroupName/providers/Microsoft.ManagedNetworkFabric/networkFabricControllers/NFCName" 
--fabric-asn 65048 
--ipv4-prefix 10.2.0.0/19 
--ipv6-prefix fda0:d59c:da02::/59 
--rack-count 4
--server-count-per-rack 8
--ts-config '{"primaryIpv4Prefix":"20.0.1.0/30", "secondaryIpv4Prefix":"20.0.0.0/30", "username":"****", "password": "****", "serialNumber":"TerminalServerSerialNumber"}' 
--managed-network-config '{"infrastructureVpnConfiguration":{"peeringOption":"OptionB","optionBProperties":{"routeTargets": {"importIpv4RouteTargets":["65048:10039"], "importIpv6RouteTargets":["65048:10039"], "exportIpv4RouteTargets":["65048:10039"], "exportIpv6RouteTargets":["65048:10039"]}}},"workloadVpnConfiguration":{"peeringOption":"OptionB","optionBProperties":{"routeTargets": {"importIpv4RouteTargets":["65048:10050"], "importIpv6RouteTargets":["65048:10039"], "exportIpv4RouteTargets":["65048:10039"], "exportIpv6RouteTargets":["65048:10039"]}}}}

Note

  • if it's a four racks set up then the rack count would be 4
  • if it's an eight rack set up then the rack count would be 8

Create a Network to Network Interconnect (NNI)

Resource group & Network Fabric must be created before Network to Network Interconnect creation.

Run the following command to create the Network to Network Interconnect (Default nni type is CE):


az networkfabric nni create \
--resource-group "NFResourceGroup" \
--location "<Location>" \
--resource-name "NFNNIName" \
--fabric "NFFabric" \
--is-management-type "True" \
--use-option-b "False" \
--layer2-configuration '{"portCount": 3, "mtu": 1500}' \
--layer3-configuration '{"peerASN": 65048, "vlanId": 501, "primaryIpv4Prefix": "10.2.0.124/30", "secondaryIpv4Prefix": "10.2.0.128/30", "primaryIpv6Prefix": "10:2:0:124::400/127", "secondaryIpv6Prefix": "10:2:0:124::402/127"}'

Next Steps

  • Update the serial number in the networkDevice resource with the actual serial number on the device. The device sends the serial number as part of DHCP request.
  • Configure the terminal server with the serial numbers of all the devices (which also hosts DHCP server)
  • Provision the network devices via zero-touch provisioning mode, Based on the serial number in the DHCP request, the DHCP server responds with the boot configuration file for the corresponding device

Update Network Fabric Devices

Run the following command to update Network Fabric Devices:


az networkfabric device update \
--resource-group "NFResourceGroup" \
--resource-name "Network-Device-Name" \
--host-name "example-hostname" \
--serial-number "xxxx"

Expected output:

Note

The The preceding code serves only as an example. You should update all the devices that are part of both AggrRack and computeRacks

For example, AggrRack consists of:

  • CE01
  • CE02
  • TOR17
  • TOR18
  • MgmtSwitch01
  • MgmtSwitch02 (and so on, for other switches)

List or Get Network Fabric Devices

Run the following command to list Network Fabric devices in a resource group:

az networkfabric device list --resource-group "NFResourceGroup"

Deprovision a Fabric

To deprovision a fabric, ensure that the fabric is in a provisioned operational state, stop the dhcp service on the terminal server, and then run this command:

az networkfabric fabric deprovision --resource-group "NFResourceGroup" --resource-name "NFName"

Deleting Fabric

To delete a fabric, run the following command. Before you do, make sure that:

  • The fabric is in a deprovisioned operational state. If it's in a provisioned state, run the deprovision command.
  • No racks are associated with the fabric.
az networkfabric fabric delete --resource-group "NFResourceGroup" --resource-name "NFName"

After successfully deleting the Network Fabric, when you run a show of the same fabric, you won't find any resources available.

az networkfabric fabric show --resource-group "NFResourceGroup" --resource-name "NFName"

Expected output:

(ResourceNotFound) The Resource 'Microsoft.ManagedNetworkFabric/NetworkFabrics/NFName' under resource group 'NFResourceGroup' was not found. For more details please go to https://aka.ms/ARMResourceNotFoundFix
Code: ResourceNotFound

Next steps

After you successfully created a Network Fabric, the next step is to create a cluster.
