Prepare the network YAML configuration file that includes essential network details needed to set up the SVO-LC interfaces and the Cisco Optical Site Manager application network infrastructure.
Use one network YAML file for each SVO-LC during installation.
-
Set redundancy-mode to GEO_HA to enable Geo high availability.
-
For high-availability deployment with two SVO-LCs, keep both files identical except for server-name.
This example shows an IPv4 network YAML configuration file for Geo HA:
server-name: "Server-A"
mgmt-address-family: "IPv4"
ospf-area-id: "0.0.0.0"
redundancy-mode: "GEO_HA"
servers:
- name: "Server-A"
mgmt:
ipv4:
ip: "10.0.123.0"
prefix: 22
gateway: "10.0.123.1"
host-nic: "10.0.123.2"
devices:
ipv4:
ip: "10.0.1.123"
prefix: 24
gateway: "10.0.123.1"
host-nic: "10.0.123.2"
- name: "Server-B"
mgmt:
ipv4:
ip: "10.1.123.123"
prefix: 22
gateway: "10.1.123.1"
host-nic: "10.1.123.2"
devices:
ipv4:
ip: "10.1.123.123"
prefix: 24
gateway: "10.1.123.1"
host-nic: "10.1.123.2"
Network YAML parameter description
This table lists and explains the parameters included in the network YAML file.
