Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF)
|
|
====================================
|
|
The VRF device combined with ip rules provides the ability to create virtual
|
|
routing and forwarding domains (aka VRFs, VRF-lite to be specific) in the
|
|
Linux network stack. One use case is the multi-tenancy problem where each
|
|
tenant has their own unique routing tables and in the very least need
|
|
different default gateways.
|
|
|
|
Processes can be "VRF aware" by binding a socket to the VRF device. Packets
|
|
through the socket then use the routing table associated with the VRF
|
|
device. An important feature of the VRF device implementation is that it
|
|
impacts only Layer 3 and above so L2 tools (e.g., LLDP) are not affected
|
|
(ie., they do not need to be run in each VRF). The design also allows
|
|
the use of higher priority ip rules (Policy Based Routing, PBR) to take
|
|
precedence over the VRF device rules directing specific traffic as desired.
|
|
|
|
In addition, VRF devices allow VRFs to be nested within namespaces. For
|
|
example network namespaces provide separation of network interfaces at L1
|
|
(Layer 1 separation), VLANs on the interfaces within a namespace provide
|
|
L2 separation and then VRF devices provide L3 separation.
|
|
|
|
Design
|
|
------
|
|
A VRF device is created with an associated route table. Network interfaces
|
|
are then enslaved to a VRF device:
|
|
|
|
+-----------------------------+
|
|
| vrf-blue | ===> route table 10
|
|
+-----------------------------+
|
|
| | |
|
|
+------+ +------+ +-------------+
|
|
| eth1 | | eth2 | ... | bond1 |
|
|
+------+ +------+ +-------------+
|
|
| |
|
|
+------+ +------+
|
|
| eth8 | | eth9 |
|
|
+------+ +------+
|
|
|
|
Packets received on an enslaved device and are switched to the VRF device
|
|
using an rx_handler which gives the impression that packets flow through
|
|
the VRF device. Similarly on egress routing rules are used to send packets
|
|
to the VRF device driver before getting sent out the actual interface. This
|
|
allows tcpdump on a VRF device to capture all packets into and out of the
|
|
VRF as a whole.[1] Similiarly, netfilter [2] and tc rules can be applied
|
|
using the VRF device to specify rules that apply to the VRF domain as a whole.
|
|
|
|
[1] Packets in the forwarded state do not flow through the device, so those
|
|
packets are not seen by tcpdump. Will revisit this limitation in a
|
|
future release.
|
|
|
|
[2] Iptables on ingress is limited to NF_INET_PRE_ROUTING only with skb->dev
|
|
set to real ingress device and egress is limited to NF_INET_POST_ROUTING.
|
|
Will revisit this limitation in a future release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setup
|
|
-----
|
|
1. VRF device is created with an association to a FIB table.
|
|
e.g, ip link add vrf-blue type vrf table 10
|
|
ip link set dev vrf-blue up
|
|
|
|
2. Rules are added that send lookups to the associated FIB table when the
|
|
iif or oif is the VRF device. e.g.,
|
|
ip ru add oif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
ip ru add iif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
|
|
Set the default route for the table (and hence default route for the VRF).
|
|
e.g, ip route add table 10 prohibit default
|
|
|
|
3. Enslave L3 interfaces to a VRF device.
|
|
e.g, ip link set dev eth1 master vrf-blue
|
|
|
|
Local and connected routes for enslaved devices are automatically moved to
|
|
the table associated with VRF device. Any additional routes depending on
|
|
the enslaved device will need to be reinserted following the enslavement.
|
|
|
|
4. Additional VRF routes are added to associated table.
|
|
e.g., ip route add table 10 ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
Applications
|
|
------------
|
|
Applications that are to work within a VRF need to bind their socket to the
|
|
VRF device:
|
|
|
|
setsockopt(sd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE, dev, strlen(dev)+1);
|
|
|
|
or to specify the output device using cmsg and IP_PKTINFO.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Limitations
|
|
-----------
|
|
Index of original ingress interface is not available via cmsg. Will address
|
|
soon.

|
Using iproute2 for VRFs
|
|
=======================
|
|
VRF devices do *not* have to start with 'vrf-'. That is a convention used here
|
|
for emphasis of the device type, similar to use of 'br' in bridge names.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a VRF
|
|
|
|
To instantiate a VRF device and associate it with a table:
|
|
$ ip link add dev NAME type vrf table ID
|
|
|
|
Remember to add the ip rules as well:
|
|
$ ip ru add oif NAME table 10
|
|
$ ip ru add iif NAME table 10
|
|
$ ip -6 ru add oif NAME table 10
|
|
$ ip -6 ru add iif NAME table 10
|
|
|
|
Without the rules route lookups are not directed to the table.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip link add dev vrf-blue type vrf table 10
|
|
$ ip ru add pref 200 oif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
$ ip ru add pref 200 iif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
$ ip -6 ru add pref 200 oif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
$ ip -6 ru add pref 200 iif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. List VRFs
|
|
|
|
To list VRFs that have been created:
|
|
$ ip [-d] link show type vrf
|
|
NOTE: The -d option is needed to show the table id
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip -d link show type vrf
|
|
11: vrf-mgmt: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
|
|
vrf table 1 addrgenmode eui64
|
|
12: vrf-red: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
|
|
vrf table 10 addrgenmode eui64
|
|
13: vrf-blue: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
|
|
vrf table 66 addrgenmode eui64
|
|
14: vrf-green: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether e6:28:b8:63:70:bb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
|
|
vrf table 81 addrgenmode eui64
|
|
|
|
|
|
Or in brief output:
|
|
|
|
$ ip -br link show type vrf
|
|
vrf-mgmt UP 72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
vrf-red UP b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
vrf-blue UP 36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
vrf-green UP e6:28:b8:63:70:bb <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Assign a Network Interface to a VRF
|
|
|
|
Network interfaces are assigned to a VRF by enslaving the netdevice to a
|
|
VRF device:
|
|
$ ip link set dev NAME master VRF-NAME
|
|
|
|
On enslavement connected and local routes are automatically moved to the
|
|
table associated with the VRF device.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip link set dev eth0 master vrf-mgmt
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Show Devices Assigned to a VRF
|
|
|
|
To show devices that have been assigned to a specific VRF add the master
|
|
option to the ip command:
|
|
$ ip link show master VRF-NAME
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip link show master vrf-red
|
|
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master vrf-red state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
|
|
4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master vrf-red state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
|
|
7: eth5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master vrf-red state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
|
|
|
|
|
|
Or using the brief output:
|
|
$ ip -br link show master vrf-red
|
|
eth1 UP 02:00:00:00:02:02 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
eth2 UP 02:00:00:00:02:03 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
eth5 DOWN 02:00:00:00:02:06 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST>
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Show Neighbor Entries for a VRF
|
|
|
|
To list neighbor entries associated with devices enslaved to a VRF device
|
|
add the master option to the ip command:
|
|
$ ip [-6] neigh show master VRF-NAME
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip neigh show master vrf-red
|
|
10.2.1.254 dev eth1 lladdr a6:d9:c7:4f:06:23 REACHABLE
|
|
10.2.2.254 dev eth2 lladdr 5e:54:01:6a:ee:80 REACHABLE
|
|
|
|
$ ip -6 neigh show master vrf-red
|
|
2002:1::64 dev eth1 lladdr a6:d9:c7:4f:06:23 REACHABLE
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Show Addresses for a VRF
|
|
|
|
To show addresses for interfaces associated with a VRF add the master
|
|
option to the ip command:
|
|
$ ip addr show master VRF-NAME
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip addr show master vrf-red
|
|
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master vrf-red state UP group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
|
|
inet 10.2.1.2/24 brd 10.2.1.255 scope global eth1
|
|
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
|
|
inet6 2002:1::2/120 scope global
|
|
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
|
|
inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:202/64 scope link
|
|
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
|
|
4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master vrf-red state UP group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
|
|
inet 10.2.2.2/24 brd 10.2.2.255 scope global eth2
|
|
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
|
|
inet6 2002:2::2/120 scope global
|
|
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
|
|
inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:203/64 scope link
|
|
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
|
|
7: eth5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master vrf-red state DOWN group default qlen 1000
|
|
link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
|
|
|
|
Or in brief format:
|
|
$ ip -br addr show master vrf-red
|
|
eth1 UP 10.2.1.2/24 2002:1::2/120 fe80::ff:fe00:202/64
|
|
eth2 UP 10.2.2.2/24 2002:2::2/120 fe80::ff:fe00:203/64
|
|
eth5 DOWN
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Show Routes for a VRF
|
|
|
|
To show routes for a VRF use the ip command to display the table associated
|
|
with the VRF device:
|
|
$ ip [-6] route show table ID
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip route show table vrf-red
|
|
prohibit default
|
|
broadcast 10.2.1.0 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.1.2
|
|
10.2.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.1.2
|
|
local 10.2.1.2 dev eth1 proto kernel scope host src 10.2.1.2
|
|
broadcast 10.2.1.255 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.1.2
|
|
broadcast 10.2.2.0 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.2.2
|
|
10.2.2.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.2.2
|
|
local 10.2.2.2 dev eth2 proto kernel scope host src 10.2.2.2
|
|
broadcast 10.2.2.255 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.2.2
|
|
|
|
$ ip -6 route show table vrf-red
|
|
local 2002:1:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
local 2002:1::2 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
2002:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
|
|
local 2002:2:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
local 2002:2::2 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
2002:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
|
|
local fe80:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
local fe80:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
local fe80::ff:fe00:202 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
local fe80::ff:fe00:203 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
|
|
fe80::/64 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
|
|
fe80::/64 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
|
|
ff00::/8 dev vrf-red metric 256 pref medium
|
|
ff00::/8 dev eth1 metric 256 pref medium
|
|
ff00::/8 dev eth2 metric 256 pref medium
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. Route Lookup for a VRF
|
|
|
|
A test route lookup can be done for a VRF by adding the oif option to ip:
|
|
$ ip [-6] route get oif VRF-NAME ADDRESS
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip route get 10.2.1.40 oif vrf-red
|
|
10.2.1.40 dev eth1 table vrf-red src 10.2.1.2
|
|
cache
|
|
|
|
$ ip -6 route get 2002:1::32 oif vrf-red
|
|
2002:1::32 from :: dev eth1 table vrf-red proto kernel src 2002:1::2 metric 256 pref medium
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. Removing Network Interface from a VRF
|
|
|
|
Network interfaces are removed from a VRF by breaking the enslavement to
|
|
the VRF device:
|
|
$ ip link set dev NAME nomaster
|
|
|
|
Connected routes are moved back to the default table and local entries are
|
|
moved to the local table.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip link set dev eth0 nomaster
|
|
|
|
