Manage a VXLAN Pool

On the main menu of ZStack Cloud, choose Resource Center > Network Resource > L2 Network Resources > VXLAN Pool. Then, the VXLAN Pool page is displayed.

The following table lists the actions that you can perform on a VXLAN pool.
Action Description
Create VXLAN Pool Create a VXLAN pool.
Edit VXLAN Pool Edit the name and description of the VXLAN pool.
Attach Cluster Attach the VXLAN pool to a cluster.
  • Software-SDN VXLAN Pool: You need to specify a VTEP CIDR. Make sure that the hosts in the cluster attached to the software-SDN VXLAN pool have an IP address as the VTEP in the specified CIDR.
  • Hardware-SDN VXLAN Pool: The host NICs in the cluster attached to the VXLAN pool must be connected with the switches managed by the SDN controller.
Detach Cluster Detach the VXLAN pool from a cluster.
Set Sharing Mode
Set the sharing mode of the resource. The platform provides the following sharing modes:
  • Share Globally: shares the resource with all projects and accounts.
  • Share to Specified Projects/Accounts: shares the resource with specified projects and accounts.
  • Not Share: revokes the resource from projects and accounts to which the resource is shared. If you set Sharing Mode to Not Share for the resource, other projects and accounts cannot use the resource.
Note:
  • If you modify the Sharing Mode setting of the resource from Share Globally to Share to Specified Projects/Accounts, the resource is visible only to the specified projects or accounts to which the resource is shared.
  • If the resource that you share with projects or accounts was used by the projects or accounts and then you modify the Sharing Mode setting of the resource, the resource is reserved for the projects or accounts until it is released.
Delete VXLAN Pool Deleting a VXLAN pool also deletes the VXLAN networks in the pool and the associated L3 networks and VM NICs. Proceed with caution.
