Add a sysctl raw_l3mdev_accept to control raw socket lookup in a manner similar to use of tcp_l3mdev_accept for stream and of udp_l3mdev_accept for datagram sockets. Have this default to enabled for reasons of backwards compatibility. This is so as to specify the output device with cmsg and IP_PKTINFO, but using a socket not bound to the corresponding VRF. This allows e.g. older ping implementations to be run with specifying the device but without executing it in the VRF. If the option is disabled, packets received in a VRF context are only handled by a raw socket bound to the VRF, and correspondingly packets in the default VRF are only handled by a socket not bound to any VRF.

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 the
|
|
device layer, 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
|
|
in the IPv4 and IPv6 processing stacks giving 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] Similarly, 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 supports PREROUTING with skb->dev set to the real
|
|
ingress device and both INPUT and PREROUTING rules with skb->dev set to
|
|
the VRF device. For egress POSTROUTING and OUTPUT rules can be written
|
|
using either the VRF device or real egress device.
|
|
|
|
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. An l3mdev FIB rule directs lookups to the table associated with the device.
|
|
A single l3mdev rule is sufficient for all VRFs. The VRF device adds the
|
|
l3mdev rule for IPv4 and IPv6 when the first device is created with a
|
|
default preference of 1000. Users may delete the rule if desired and add
|
|
with a different priority or install per-VRF rules.
|
|
|
|
Prior to the v4.8 kernel iif and oif rules are needed for each VRF device:
|
|
ip ru add oif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
ip ru add iif vrf-blue table 10
|
|
|
|
3. Set the default route for the table (and hence default route for the VRF).
|
|
ip route add table 10 unreachable default metric 4278198272
|
|
|
|
This high metric value ensures that the default unreachable route can
|
|
be overridden by a routing protocol suite. FRRouting interprets
|
|
kernel metrics as a combined admin distance (upper byte) and priority
|
|
(lower 3 bytes). Thus the above metric translates to [255/8192].
|
|
|
|
4. Enslave L3 interfaces to a VRF device.
|
|
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 are dropped and will need to be reinserted to the VRF
|
|
FIB table following the enslavement.
|
|
|
|
The IPv6 sysctl option keep_addr_on_down can be enabled to keep IPv6 global
|
|
addresses as VRF enslavement changes.
|
|
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.keep_addr_on_down=1
|
|
|
|
5. Additional VRF routes are added to associated table.
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
By default the scope of the port bindings for unbound sockets is
|
|
limited to the default VRF. That is, it will not be matched by packets
|
|
arriving on interfaces enslaved to an l3mdev and processes may bind to
|
|
the same port if they bind to an l3mdev.
|
|
|
|
TCP & UDP services running in the default VRF context (ie., not bound
|
|
to any VRF device) can work across all VRF domains by enabling the
|
|
tcp_l3mdev_accept and udp_l3mdev_accept sysctl options:
|
|
|
|
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_l3mdev_accept=1
|
|
sysctl -w net.ipv4.udp_l3mdev_accept=1
|
|
|
|
These options are disabled by default so that a socket in a VRF is only
|
|
selected for packets in that VRF. There is a similar option for RAW
|
|
sockets, which is enabled by default for reasons of backwards compatibility.
|
|
This is so as to specify the output device with cmsg and IP_PKTINFO, but
|
|
using a socket not bound to the corresponding VRF. This allows e.g. older ping
|
|
implementations to be run with specifying the device but without executing it
|
|
in the VRF. This option can be disabled so that packets received in a VRF
|
|
context are only handled by a raw socket bound to the VRF, and packets in the
|
|
default VRF are only handled by a socket not bound to any VRF:
|
|
|
|
sysctl -w net.ipv4.raw_l3mdev_accept=0
|
|
|
|
netfilter rules on the VRF device can be used to limit access to services
|
|
running in the default VRF context as well.

|
|
|
Using iproute2 for VRFs
|
|
=======================
|
|
iproute2 supports the vrf keyword as of v4.7. For backwards compatibility this
|
|
section lists both commands where appropriate -- with the vrf keyword and the
|
|
older form without it.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a VRF
|
|
|
|
To instantiate a VRF device and associate it with a table:
|
|
$ ip link add dev NAME type vrf table ID
|
|
|
|
As of v4.8 the kernel supports the l3mdev FIB rule where a single rule
|
|
covers all VRFs. The l3mdev rule is created for IPv4 and IPv6 on first
|
|
device create.
|
|
|
|
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: 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: 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: 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: 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
|
|
mgmt UP 72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
red UP b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
blue UP 36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
|
|
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 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 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 vrf NAME
|
|
$ ip link show master NAME
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip link show vrf red
|
|
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master 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 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 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 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 vrf NAME
|
|
$ ip [-6] neigh show master NAME
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip neigh show 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 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 vrf NAME
|
|
$ ip addr show master NAME
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip addr show vrf red
|
|
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master 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 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 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 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 vrf NAME
|
|
$ ip [-6] route show table ID
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip route show vrf red
|
|
unreachable default metric 4278198272
|
|
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 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 red metric 256 pref medium
|
|
ff00::/8 dev eth1 metric 256 pref medium
|
|
ff00::/8 dev eth2 metric 256 pref medium
|
|
unreachable default dev lo metric 4278198272 error -101 pref medium
|
|
|
|
8. Route Lookup for a VRF
|
|
|
|
A test route lookup can be done for a VRF:
|
|
$ ip [-6] route get vrf NAME ADDRESS
|
|
$ ip [-6] route get oif NAME ADDRESS
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
$ ip route get 10.2.1.40 vrf red
|
|
10.2.1.40 dev eth1 table red src 10.2.1.2
|
|
cache
|
|
|
|
$ ip -6 route get 2002:1::32 vrf red
|
|
2002:1::32 from :: dev eth1 table 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
|
|
|
|
