EWAN config Agent

EWAN config agent is the controller of Sdewan(a CRD) instance. When a Sdewan instance is created, the agent creates the pod running OpenWRT. The OpenWRT could be a sdwan, an ipsec tunnel or a firewall, depends on the rules applied to the openwrt instand.

CRDs

Sdewan CRD depends on some CRDs. So we list the related CRDs here.

new CRDs in EWAN will be like the below samples.

apiVersion: sdewan.akraino.org/v1alpha1
kind: Sdewan
metadata:
  name: example-sdwan
spec:
  node: node1
  networks:
    - name: ovn-net1
      isProvider: true
    - name: ovn-net2
      isProvider: false
  mwan3Rule: example1-rule

apiVersion: sdewan.akraino.org/v1alpha1
kind: Mwan3Rule
metadata:
  name: example1-rule
spec:
  policy:
    balance1:
      - nework: ovn-net1
        weight: 2
        metric: 2
      - network: ovn-net2
        weight: 3
        metric: 3     
  rule:
    - name: 'https'
      policy: balance1
      dest_ip: 0.0.0.0/0
      dest_port: 443
    - name: 'http'
      policy: balance1
      dest_ip: 0.0.0.0/0
      dest_port: 80

The controller behave

• Monitor Sdwan instance and SdwanRule instance
• When SdwanRule instance created/update:
  • If this SdwanRule instance is used by any Sdwan instance, then apply the rule to related Sdwan instance by calling api
• When SdwanRule instance deleted:
  • If this SdwanRule instance is used by any Sdwan instance, prevent the delete action
• When Sdwan instance created/updated:
  • If the rule specified doesn't exist, prevent the create/update action
  • Creates sdwan deployment/pod if it does not exist
  • Apply the rules if the rule changes
• When Sdwan instance deleted:
  • Delete the deployment/pod
