Overview

This page demonstrates Installation troubleshooting steps of VTN coordinator. OpenDaylight VTN provides multi-tenant virtual network functions on OpenDaylight controllers. OpenDaylight VTN consists of two parts:

  • VTN Coordinator
  • VTN Manager.

VTN Coordinator orchestrates multiple VTN Managers running in OpenDaylight Controllers, and provides VTN Applications with VTN API. VTN Manager is OSGi bundles running in OpenDaylight Controller. Current VTN Manager supports only OpenFlow switches. It handles PACKET_IN messages, sends PACKET_OUT messages, manages host information, and installs flow entries into OpenFlow switches to provide VTN Coordinator with virtual network functions. The requirements for installing these two are different.Therefore, we recommend that you install VTN Manager and VTN Coordinator in different machines.
