Setting up networks for object storage
Prerequisites
- A clear understanding of the concept Traffic types.
To create the network configuration for object storage
Admin panel
- Go to Infrastructure > Networks and ensure that your infrastructure has the following networks:
- A private network with the OSTOR private traffic type
- A public network with the S3 public traffic type
- Ensure the public network for the S3 nodes is balanced by an external DNS load balancer.
- If you plan to use RDMA over InfiniBand, move the traffic type Storage to a dedicated network and assign that network to the IB interface.
- Configure network interfaces on the nodes that you plan to join the S3 cluster.
Command-line interface
Review your network configuration by using the following command:
# vinfra cluster network list -c id -c name -c traffic_types +--------------------------------------+---------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | id | name | traffic_types | +--------------------------------------+---------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+ | f50605a3-64f4-4f0c-b50e-9481ec221c72 | Private | Backup (ABGW) private,Internal management,OSTOR private,Storage | | 955041d4-b059-47a1-ba4c-0be117e8cbd2 | Public | Backup (ABGW) public,iSCSI,NFS,S3 public,Admin panel,SSH | +--------------------------------------+---------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+
