Configure Data Interfaces¶
A data class interface attaches the host to a data network providing the underlying network for OpenStack Neutron Tenant/Project Networks.
About this task
For each of the above procedures, configure the node interface specifying the ‘ifclass’ as ‘data’ and assign one or more data networks to the node interface.
Procedure
List the attached interfaces.
To list all interfaces, use the system host-if-list command and include the

Attach an interface to a network.
Use a command sequence of the following form:
~(keystone_admin)]$ system host-if-modify -n <ifname> -m <mtu> -c <ifclass> <hostname> <ethname> [--ipv4-mode=ip4_mode [ipv4-pool addr_pool]] [--ipv6-mode=ip6_mode [ipv6-pool addr_pool]] ~(keystone_admin)]$ system interface-datanetwork-assign <hostname> <ifname> <data network>
where the following options are available:
- ifname
A name for the interface.
- mtu
The MTU for the interface.
Note
The MTU must be equal to or larger than the MTU of the data network to which the interface is attached.
- ifclass
The class of the interface. The valid classes are platform, data, pci-sriov, and pci-passthrough.
- data network
The name or ID of the network to assign the interface to.
- hostname
The name or UUID of the host.
- ethname
The name or UUID of the Ethernet interface to use.
- ip4_mode
The mode for assigning IPv4 addresses to a data interface (static or pool.)
- ip6_mode
The mode for assigning IPv6 addresses to a data interface (static or pool.)
- addr_pool
The name of an IPv4 or IPv6 address pool, for use with the pool mode of IP address assignment for data interfaces.
