HawkV6 Deployment Guide

Overview

This repository provides the necessary files to deploy the core components of the HawkV6 project on a Kubernetes cluster. The following elements are included:

  • Jalapeno: Used for network data aggregation, processing, and storage.
  • Jalapeno API Gateway (JAGW): Facilitates easy retrieval and subscription of data stored in Jalapeno.
  • Consul: Serves as a service registry for network services.

Additionally, this repository includes Grafana dashboards stored in the grafana-dashboards folder. These dashboards are not automatically included in the Jalapeno Grafana instance but can be easily imported and used.

Setup Instructions

Prerequisites

Before proceeding, ensure that you've cloned this repository and initialized the Helm submodules (jagw-helm and jalapeno-helm):

git clone https://github.com/hawkv6/deployment.git
git submodule init
git submodule update

Jalapeno Deployment

Follow these steps to install Jalapeno in the hawkv6-jalapeno namespace:

  1. Prepare Configuration Files:

    • Modify the jalapeno-values.yaml file according to your requirements.
    • Copy the modified content to the values.yaml file within the jalapeno-helm submodule:
    cp jalapeno-values.yaml jalapeno-helm/jalapeno-helm/values.yaml

  2. Configure Telegraf Ingress

  • This action ensures the correct Kafka topics are used for data transfer to the clab-telemetry-linker.

  • Copy the collector-telegraf-ingress-cm.yaml content into the corresponding ConfigMap in the jalapeno-helm submodule.:

     cp collector-telegraf-ingress-cm.yaml jalapeno-helm/jalapeno-helm/templates/collectors/telegraf-ingress/collector-telegraf-ingress-cm.yaml

The following Kafka topics are used for data transfer:

  • hawkv6.telemetry.unprocessed: Contains unprocessed performance measurement telemetry data, utilized by the clab-telemetry-linker.
  • hawkv6.openconfig: Holds OpenConfig interface status and related IPv6 addresses, used by the generic-processor.
  • jalapeno.telemetry: Handles all other telemetry data.
  1. Configure Telegraf Egress

  • This action ensures data is forwarded to InfluxDB.

  • Copy the processors-telegraf-egress-cm.yaml content into the corresponding ConfigMap in the jalapeno-helm submodule:

     cp processors-telegraf-egress-cm.yaml jalapeno-helm/jalapeno-helm/templates/processors/telegraf-egress/processors-telegraf-egress-cm.yaml

These Kafka topics are used for data transfer to InfluxDB:

  • hawkv6.telemetry.processed: Contains the processed performance measurement telemetry data. The clab-telemetry-linker writes to this topic.
  • jalapeno.telemetry: Handles all other telemetry data.
  • hawkv6.telemetry.normalized: Contains normalized telemetry data. The generic-processor writes to this topic.
  1. Deploy Jalapeno

  • Install Jalapeno in the hawkv6-jalapeno namespace using Helm:

     cd jalapeno-helm
 helm install jalapeno ./jalapeno-helm -n hawkv6-jalapeno --create-namespace
  1. Import Grafana Dashboards (Optional)
  • Import the dashboards found in the grafana-dashboards folder into the Jalapeno Grafana instance.

Jalapeno API Gateway Deployment

Follow these steps to install the Jalapeno API Gateway in the hawkv6-jagw namespace:

  1. Configure Jalapeno API Gateway:

    • Modify the jagw-values.yaml file according to your requirements.
    • Copy the updated content to the values.yaml file in the jagw-helm submodule:
    cp jagw-values.yaml jagw-helm/jagw/values.yaml

  2. Install the API Gateway:

    • Deploy the Jalapeno API Gateway in the hawkv6-jagw namespace using Helm:
    cd jagw-helm
helm install jagw ./jagw -n hawkv6-jagw --create-namespace

Consul Deployment

Follow these steps to install the Consul instance in the hawkv6-consul namespace.

  1. Configure Consul:

    • Modify the consul-values.yaml file according to your requirements.

  2. Add HashiCorp Helm Repository:

    • Add the HashiCorp Helm repository to your Helm configuration:
    helm repo add hashicorp https://helm.releases.hashicorp.com
"hashicorp" has been added to your repositories

  3. Verify Consul Chart Access:

    • Ensure that you have access to the Consul chart:
    helm search repo hashicorp/consul
NAME                CHART VERSION   APP VERSION DESCRIPTION
hashicorp/consul    1.0.1           1.14.1      Official HashiCorp Consul Chart

  4. Label Worker Node (Optional):

    • If external services cannot reach your internal pod, you may need to work with hostPorts. To do this, label a worker node to run the Consul server:
    kubectl label nodes dev-w-0 hawkv6-consul-server=true

  5. Label Namespace:

  • Since Consul only accepts non-K8S client agents with Host Ports, label the namespace accordingly:
```bash
kubectl create namespace hawkv6-clab
kubectl label ns hawkv6-clab --overwrite \
	pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce=privileged \
	pod-security.kubernetes.io/warn=privileged
```

  1. Install Consul:

    • Deploy Consul in the hawkv6-consul namespace using Helm:
    helm install consul hashicorp/consul --namespace hawkv6-consul --values consul-values.yaml
