Creating a second Pod and Public IP ranges

[Brian Fitzpatrick <b....@chester.ac.uk>]

Hi all,

We have been building a Cloudstack 4.15.2 environment  using Ubuntu 20.04 and KVM.

We have thus far only built one Pod with some clusters and hosts in clusters sharing nfs storage.

The existing Pod is on a physical subnet 10.250.0.0/22 (private address) but Public in terms of out on our network.

We have assigned some Public IP address ranges 10.250.2.xxx - 10.250.2.yyy ie. within this physical /22 network.

I would like to add a second Pod on a new subnet 10.250.20.0/22.

I guess, in order to support virtual routers hosted onto that new Pod, I need to add a new Public IP range that falls within it?

ie. 10.250.22.xxx - 10.250.22.yyy ?

There doesn't seem to be a way to link a Public IP range to a Pod? I haven't tested this yet but does it just link the Public range with the Pod subnet and gateway automatically ? associating the gateway?

So if somebody creates a network and it lives on Pod2 the Virtual router and network gets a public IP from that network. Or is there something I have to do to associate Public IP ranges to Pods?

Hope this makes sense?

Thanks

Brian
