Jump server Software Requirements:

    ICN R2 release support Ubuntu 18.04 - ICN BP install all required software during "make install"

Network Requirements

Please refer the figure 1, for all the network requirement in ICN BP

Please sure you have 3 distinguished networks net A, Net B and Net C as mentioned in figure 1. Local controller uses the Net B and Net C to provision the Baremetal servers to do the OS provisioning.

Compute server Software Requirements:

The local controller will install all the software in compute servers right from OS, the software required to bring up the Kubernetes cluster

Network Prerequisites:

Execution Requirements (Bare Metal Only)

ICN BP check all the precondition and execution requirements for both Baremetal and VM deploymentPlease sure you have 3 distinguished networks net A, Net B and Net C as mentioned in figure 1. Local controller uses the Net B and Net C to provision the Baremetal servers to do the OS provisioning.

Installation Overview

Installation is two-step process and everything starts with one command "make install"
