Pre-Configuration Checklist

The following table provides information that you would need while launching the visibility components using GigaVUE-FM. Obtaining this information will ensure a successful and efficient deployment of the GigaVUE Cloud Suite for OpenStack.

You can log in to GigaVUE‑FM and use the CLI command: ip host <controller-hostname> <ip-address of the controller>. (For example: ip host os-controller1 192.168.2.3.) Then, add the connection to the OpenStack tenant.

In order for GigaVUE‑FM to make a connection to an OpenStack tenant, GigaVUE‑FM must be able to resolve the hostname of the OpenStack controller, even if using an IP address in the Identity URL. For example, if GigaVUE‑FM is configured to use DNS, and that controller hostname is in the DNS, this will work, and no further configuration will be needed. If not, then you must add a host entry to GigaVUE‑FM.

Note:  If you are not using DNS, you must manually enter the host entry in /etc/hosts on GigaVUE-FM for the OpenStack Controller. On using DNS you can directly enter the host entry in GigaVUE-FM.
