Call for Volunteer Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)

The Linux Foundation (LF) is creating a 1 ¼ day Tungsten Fabric training that will be offered by the Linux Foundation through as paid online and face-to-face instruction mechanismscourses. This is a call for SME volunteers to conduct train-the-trainer sessions with the team creating the training materials.

...

  • Point the training material developer to slides/wiki/documentation that can be used to create slides.

  • Show the training material developer a demo of the hands-on lab that they can “productize” – if . If needed, an AWS environment will be stood up before the call.

Please volunteer by putting your name below.There will also be an opportunity for the community to review the materials. This is not a mandatory step, but rather an option available to the community in the spirit of full transparency  If you are interested in contributing to a chapter which already has an SME listed, please add your name to that chapter's list.

Introduction to Tungsten Fabric Lab

  • Pre-lab:  Install TF & Kubernetes and make sure the services are up and running.
  • Lab-1: Create and deploy a Kubernetes pod and make sure the Virtual Networks (vrouters/gateways) are configured so that the pod can be accessed.
    • As part of this lab exercise, the pods will be created in k8s and the corresponding configurations will be defined in services yaml file.
    • TF uses the configuration defined in the service yaml file and creates virtual networks. 
  • Labs: Create Simple Gateway

TF Configuration Lab

  • Lab-2: Create multiple tenants (namespaces and pods ) and deployments with access restrictions (Network policy) and show the communications between pods from different namespaces. This involves:

    • Creating multiple namespaces and a few pods and deploying corresponding services

    • Define network policies to allow and deny communication between two pods 

  • Labs: Virtual networks and policies

  • Connecting virtual and physical networks
  • Floating IPs
  • Simple virtual gateway configuration
  • EVPN

TF & External Networks

  • Lab-3: Create and deploy a pod using Floating IP so that the pod can be accessed externally.
    • This exercise could be combined with Lab-1 because the floating IPs are created automatically by TF upon deploying a service. 
  • Labs: Creating floating IPs and gateways
