This page describes how to manage the infra. See rtfm.txt for a guide to build it from scratch.

This covers setup of a VM on meltdown or spectre depending on if the service is critical or not.

Networks

Further information: Network

We should have the following networks in place:

  • meltdown and spectre br0 on eno1 <--> enp4s0 on joey. This is the main LUUG network.
    • 10.98.0.0/16 for VTLUUG NAT
    • IPv6 via prefix delegation on 607:b400:6:cc80/64
    • Global IPv4s via ARP proxying (See https://github.com/vtluug/scripts). Gateway is 128.173.88.1/22.
  • Static hosts are on 10.98.0.0/24, and DHCP is enabled on 10.98.1.0/24. This is mainly just useful for organization and quickly finding new hosts or other hosts on the network.
    • Static host IPs are assigned via static DHCP leases for IPv4.
    • Since we can't do this with IPv6, physical host IPs are determined upon first boot and VMs are assigned a specific MAC to pre-determine the SLAAC IP.
  • "Internet" (a CNS portal) <--> enp2s0 on joey. LUUG only has one of these, and port security is probably enabled.

DNS/DHCP:

  • All DNS entries for services run by VTLUUG are hosted on Gandi. Ask an officer if you want to change something.
  • jkh and Roddy own ece.vt.edu. DNS updates don't happen. echarlie can add IPv6-only records if needed to wuvt.vt.edu so we have PTRs.
  • joey runs DHCP via dnsmasq on enp4s0 (that is, 10.98.0.0/16). To change anything, modify it on https://github.com/vtluug/scripts first then pull that into root's homedir on joey. Please don't just update it on a machine without pushing your updates.
  • By default, hosts are accessible via SSH on ports 22 and 2222.

Adding a VTLUUG Service VM

VMs in this category are deployed to meltdown

Prerequisites:

Configure the network

  • Decide on a MAC address for the host and add it to SCRIPTS/router/lan/local_hosts
  • Add an entry to SCRIPTS/router/lan/dnsmasq.conf for static DHCP leases.
  • If a new IP in 128.173.88.1/22 is being added, also add it to SCRIPTS/router/proxy/arp_proxy.sh

Note: It is not recommended that you do the following steps if nobody is on campus in case something breaks.

Pull the latest changes to /root/scripts, update the configuration files, and restart the services:

  • Dnsmasq configuration is at /etc/dnsmasq.conf
  • ARP Proxy configuration is in /usr/local/bin

Add the VM configuration to ansible

Edit ANSIBLE_PATH/roles/deploy-vms/defaults/main.yml and add a new entry, following the existing format.

Note: if there are any entries in this file that are not present on the VM host, they will also be created. Comment out entries that shouldn't be created. Existing hosts are skipped.

Run ansible-playbook -v deploy.yml -i hosts.cfg -u papatux -k -K -e @VTLUUG_ADMIN_REPO/accounts.yml, using the correct vtluug-admin repo path.

Testing

The new host should be accessible by papatux on via SSH port 2222 (and 22) over IPv6 and IPv4 from the internal network. Check 10.98.1.0/24 to see if it had any issues getting a static DHCP lease and if the MAC is correct.

Adding a User VM

VMs in this category are deployed to spectre

Prerequisites:

Configure the network

  • Decide on a MAC address for the host and add it to SCRIPTS/router/lan/local_hosts
  • Add an entry to SCRIPTS/router/lan/dnsmasq.conf for static DHCP leases. (If applicable; you might not care for a test/temp VM).

Note: It is not recommended that you do the following steps if nobody is on campus in case something breaks.

Pull the latest changes to /root/scripts, update the configuration files, and restart the services:

  • Dnsmasq configuration is at /etc/dnsmasq.conf

Add the VM configuration to ansible

Edit ANSIBLE_PATH/roles/deploy-vms/defaults/main.yml and add a new entry under new_vms_spectre, following the existing format.

Note: if there are any entries in this file that are not present on the VM host, they will also be created. Comment out entries that shouldn't be created. Existing hosts are skipped.

Run ansible-playbook -v deploy.yml -i hosts.cfg -u papatux -k -K, using the correct vtluug-admin repo path.

Important: A random root password is set during VM creation and printed to stdout. Record this!

Testing

The new host should be accessible by root on via SSH port 2222 (and 22) over IPv6 and IPv4 from the internal network. Check 10.98.1.0/24 to see if it had any issues getting a static DHCP lease and if the MAC is correct.
