[10:16] <AskUbuntu> MAAS - UBUNTU 12.04.3 - ADD NODE BUT WITH ERROR | http://askubuntu.com/q/363649
[15:52] <Preytell> is there a document or some info on the network engineering side of maas deployments. I need to see the requirements and best practice for deploying the physical layers. All the documents that I have read seem to be based on have one flat network for all connections, whereas I typically have at least three separate networks, front-end (public), back-end (private) and power (IPMI). Can you can point me in the right direction?
[15:56] <roaksoax> Preytell: we don't have a proper document but it is possible. Though, maas does expect that IPMI network is different from the provisioniing network (which you can be consider what you describe as flat network)
[15:56] <roaksoax> Preytell: as long as the MAAS server can reach the ipmi network of course
[15:59] <Preytell> yeah that's the fun part. So if you decide to go down the MAAS/JuJu/OpenStack path there are networking layers all over the place. I was just wondering if that was covered somewhere.
[16:01] <roaksoax> Preytell: we've done it but we've not documented it
[16:02] <roaksoax> but really depends on your requirenments
[16:02] <bigjools> we're discussing how to document that
[16:02] <Preytell> I've been there..... I have tons of things that I have done but not had the time to write the docs...
[16:02] <bigjools> we're going to add some typical scenarios to the setup docs
[16:03] <roaksoax> Preytell: but this documentation might be useful:
[16:03] <roaksoax> http://astokes.org/automatically-configuring-vlans-maas/
[16:03] <bigjools> current docs assume spome knowledge of how to do networking
[16:04] <Preytell> I will check it out. I need to get a lab going. multiple efforts underway to discover which direction to take into the openstack world, and I like the maas/juju offer right now.
[16:04] <Preytell> thanks!
