Virtual or Cloud NetworksΒΆ
In addition to the physical networks used to connect the StarlingX OpenStack hosts, StarlingX OpenStack uses virtual networks to support VMs.
Virtual networks, which include data networks and project networks, are defined and implemented internally. They are connected to system hosts and to the outside world using data (physical) networks attached to data interfaces on compute nodes.
Each data network supports one or more data networks, which may be implemented as a flat, VLAN, or VXLAN network. The data networks in turn support project networks, which are allocated for use by different projects and their VMs, and which can be isolated from one another.
