-==================
+Deploying VyOS in the AWS cloud
+===============================
-VyOS supports development infrastructure via Terraform and provisioning via Ansible.
-Terraform allows you to automate the process of deploying instances on many cloud and virtual platforms.
-In this article, we will look at using terraforms to deploy vyos on platforms - AWS, AZURE, and vSphere.
-More detailed about what is Terraform you can write using the link_.

+Deploying VyOS in the Azure cloud
+=================================
+
+With the help of Terraform, you can quickly deploy VyOS-based infrastructure in the Azure cloud. If necessary, the infrastructure can be removed using terraform.
+Also we will make provisioning using Ansible.
+
+In this case, we'll create the necessary files for Terraform and Ansible next using Terraform we'll create a single instance on the Azure cloud and make provisioning using Ansible.
+
+Preparation steps for deploying VyOS on Azure
+---------------------------------------------
+
+How to create a single instance and install your configuration using Terraform+Ansible+Azure
+Step by step:
+
+Azure
+
+ 1 Create an account with Azure
+
+Terraform
+
+
+ 1 Create an UNIX or Windows instance
+
+ 2 Download and install Terraform
+
+ 3 Create the folder for example /root/azvyos/
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ mkdir /root/azvyos
+
+ 4 Copy all files into your Terraform project "/root/azvyos" (vyos.tf, var.tf, terraform.tfvars), more detailed see `Structure of files Terrafom for Azure`_
+
+ 5 Login with Azure using the command
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ az login
+
+2.6 Type the commands :
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ cd /<your folder>
+ terraform init
+
+Ansible
+
+
+ 1 Create an UNIX instance whenever you want (local, cloud, and so on)
+
+ 2 Download and install Ansible
+
+ 3 Create the folder for example /root/az/
+
+ 4 Copy all files into your Ansible project "/root/az/" (ansible.cfg, instance.yml,"all"), more detailed see `Structure of files Ansible for Azure`_
+
+
+Start
+
+
+Type the commands on your Terrafom instance:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ cd /<your folder>
+ terraform plan
+ terraform apply
+ yes
+
+After executing all the commands you will have your VyOS instance on the Azure cloud with your configuration, it's a very convenient desition.
+If you need to delete the instance please type the command:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ terraform destroy

+
+Deploying VyOS in the vSphere infrastructure
+============================================
+
+With the help of Terraform, you can quickly deploy VyOS-based infrastructure in the vSphere.
+Also we will make provisioning using Ansible.
+
+In this case, we'll create the necessary files for Terraform and Ansible next using Terraform we'll create a single instance on the vSphere cloud and make provisioning using Ansible.
+
+Preparation steps for deploying VyOS on vSphere
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+How to create a single instance and install your configuration using Terraform+Ansible+vSphere
+Step by step:
+
+
+vSphere
+
+
+ 1 Collect all data in to file "terraform.tfvars" and create resources for example "terraform"
+
+
+Terraform
+
+
+ 1 Create an UNIX or Windows instance
+
+ 2 Download and install Terraform
+
+ 3 Create the folder for example /root/vsphereterraform
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ mkdir /root/vsphereterraform
+
+
+ 4 Copy all files into your Terraform project "/root/vsphereterraform" (vyos.tf, var.tf, terraform.tfvars,version.tf), more detailed see `Structure of files Terrafom for vSphere`_
+
+ 5 Type the commands :
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ cd /<your folder>
+ terraform init
+
+
+Ansible
+
+
+ 1 Create an UNIX instance whenever you want (local, cloud, and so on)
+
+ 2 Download and install Ansible
+
+ 3 Create the folder for example /root/vsphereterraform/
+
+ 4 Copy all files into your Ansible project "/root/vsphereterraform/" (ansible.cfg, instance.yml,"all"), more detailed see `Structure of files Ansible for vSphere`_
+
+
+Start
+
+
+Type the commands on your Terrafom instance:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ cd /<your folder>
+ terraform plan
+ terraform apply
+ yes
+
+
+After executing all the commands you will have your VyOS instance on the vSphere with your configuration, it's a very convenient desition.
+If you need to delete the instance please type the command:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ terraform destroy

+ set vpn pptp remote-access gateway-address 192.168.255.1
+
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication mode <local | radius>
+
+ Set authentication backend. The configured authentication backend is used
+ for all queries.
+
+ * **radius**: All authentication queries are handled by a configured RADIUS
+ server.
+ * **local**: All authentication queries are handled locally.
+ * **noauth**: Authentication disabled.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication local-users username <user> password
+ <pass>
+
+ Create `<user>` for local authentication on this system. The users password
+ will be set to `<pass>`.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access client-ip-pool <POOL-NAME> range <x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x | x.x.x.x/x>
+
+ Use this command to define the first IP address of a pool of
+ addresses to be given to PPTP clients. If notation ``x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x``,
+ it must be within a /24 subnet. If notation ``x.x.x.x/x`` is
+ used there is possibility to set host/netmask.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access default-pool <POOL-NAME>
+
+ Use this command to define default address pool name.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access gateway-address <gateway>
+
+ Specifies single `<gateway>` IP address to be used as local address of PPP
+ interfaces.
+
+*********************************
+Configuring RADIUS authentication
+*********************************
+
+To enable RADIUS based authentication, the authentication mode needs to be
+changed within the configuration. Previous settings like the local users, still
+exists within the configuration, however they are not used if the mode has been
+changed from local to radius. Once changed back to local, it will use all local
+accounts again.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set vpn pptp remote-access authentication mode radius
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius server <server> key <secret>
+
+ Configure RADIUS `<server>` and its required shared `<secret>` for
+ communicating with the RADIUS server.
+
+Since the RADIUS server would be a single point of failure, multiple RADIUS
+servers can be setup and will be used subsequentially.
+For example:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius server 10.0.0.1 key 'foo'
+ set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius server 10.0.0.2 key 'foo'
+
+.. note:: Some RADIUS severs use an access control list which allows or denies
+ queries, make sure to add your VyOS router to the allowed client list.
+
+RADIUS source address
+=====================
+
+If you are using OSPF as IGP, always the closest interface connected to the
+RADIUS server is used. You can bind all outgoing RADIUS requests
+to a single source IP e.g. the loopback interface.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius source-address <address>
+
+ Source IPv4 address used in all RADIUS server queires.
+
+.. note:: The ``source-address`` must be configured on one of VyOS interface.
+ Best practice would be a loopback or dummy interface.
+
+RADIUS advanced options
+=======================
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius server <server> port <port>
+
+ Configure RADIUS `<server>` and its required port for authentication requests.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius server <server> fail-time <time>
+
+ Mark RADIUS server as offline for this given `<time>` in seconds.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius server <server> disable
+
+ Temporary disable this RADIUS server.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius acct-timeout <timeout>
+
+ Timeout to wait reply for Interim-Update packets. (default 3 seconds)
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius dynamic-author server <address>
+
+ Specifies IP address for Dynamic Authorization Extension server (DM/CoA)
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius dynamic-author port <port>
+
+ Port for Dynamic Authorization Extension server (DM/CoA)
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius dynamic-author key <secret>

+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius timeout <timeout>
+
+ Timeout to wait response from server (seconds)
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius nas-identifier <identifier>
+
+ Value to send to RADIUS server in NAS-Identifier attribute and to be matched
+ in DM/CoA requests.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius nas-ip-address <address>
+
+ Value to send to RADIUS server in NAS-IP-Address attribute and to be matched
+ in DM/CoA requests. Also DM/CoA server will bind to that address.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius source-address <address>
+
+ Source IPv4 address used in all RADIUS server queires.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius rate-limit attribute <attribute>
+
+ Specifies which RADIUS server attribute contains the rate limit information.
+ The default attribute is `Filter-Id`.
+
+.. note:: If you set a custom RADIUS attribute you must define it on both
+ dictionaries at RADIUS server and client.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius rate-limit enable
+
+ Enables bandwidth shaping via RADIUS.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access authentication radius rate-limit vendor
+
+ Specifies the vendor dictionary, dictionary needs to be in
+ /usr/share/accel-ppp/radius.
+
+Received RADIUS attributes have a higher priority than parameters defined within
+the CLI configuration, refer to the explanation below.
+
+Allocation clients ip addresses by RADIUS
+=========================================
+
+If the RADIUS server sends the attribute ``Framed-IP-Address`` then this IP
+address will be allocated to the client and the option ``default-pool`` within the CLI
+config is being ignored.
+
+If the RADIUS server sends the attribute ``Framed-Pool``, IP address will be allocated
+from a predefined IP pool whose name equals the attribute value.
+
+If the RADIUS server sends the attribute ``Stateful-IPv6-Address-Pool``, IPv6 address
+will be allocated from a predefined IPv6 pool ``prefix`` whose name equals the attribute value.
+
+If the RADIUS server sends the attribute ``Delegated-IPv6-Prefix-Pool``, IPv6
+delegation pefix will be allocated from a predefined IPv6 pool ``delegate``
+whose name equals the attribute value.
+
+.. note:: ``Stateful-IPv6-Address-Pool`` and ``Delegated-IPv6-Prefix-Pool`` are defined in
+ RFC6911. If they are not defined in your RADIUS server, add new dictionary_.
+
+User interface can be put to VRF context via RADIUS Access-Accept packet, or change
+it via RADIUS CoA. ``Accel-VRF-Name`` is used from these purposes. It is custom `ACCEL-PPP attribute`_.
+Define it in your RADIUS server.
+
+Renaming clients interfaces by RADIUS
+=====================================
+
+If the RADIUS server uses the attribute ``NAS-Port-Id``, ppp tunnels will be
+renamed.
+
+.. note:: The value of the attribute ``NAS-Port-Id`` must be less than 16
+ characters, otherwise the interface won't be renamed.
+
+****
+IPv6
+****
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access ppp-options ipv6 <require | prefer | allow | deny>
+
+ Specifies IPv6 negotiation preference.
+
+ * **require** - Require IPv6 negotiation
+ * **prefer** - Ask client for IPv6 negotiation, do not fail if it rejects
+ * **allow** - Negotiate IPv6 only if client requests
+ * **deny** - Do not negotiate IPv6 (default value)
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access client-ipv6-pool <IPv6-POOL-NAME> prefix <address>
+ mask <number-of-bits>
+
+ Use this comand to set the IPv6 address pool from which an PPTP client
+ will get an IPv6 prefix of your defined length (mask) to terminate the
+ PPTP endpoint at their side. The mask length can be set from 48 to 128
+ bit long, the default value is 64.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access client-ipv6-pool <IPv6-POOL-NAME> delegate <address>
+ delegation-prefix <number-of-bits>
+
+ Use this command to configure DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (RFC3633) on
+ PPTP. You will have to set your IPv6 pool and the length of the
+ delegation prefix. From the defined IPv6 pool you will be handing out
+ networks of the defined length (delegation-prefix). The length of the
+ delegation prefix can be set from 32 to 64 bit long.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn pptp remote-access default-ipv6-pool <IPv6-POOL-NAME>
+ Use this command to define default IPv6 address pool name.

+Since the RADIUS server would be a single point of failure, multiple RADIUS
+servers can be setup and will be used subsequentially.
+For example:
-.. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp port <port>
+.. code-block:: none
- Specifies the port `<port>` that the SSTP port will listen on (default 443).
+ set vpn sstp authentication radius server 10.0.0.1 key 'foo'

+=====================
- Use this command to define the first IP address of a pool of
- addresses to be given to SSTP clients. If notation ``x.x.x.x-x.x.x.x``,
- it must be within a /24 subnet. If notation ``x.x.x.x/x`` is
- used there is possibility to set host/netmask.

+RADIUS server is used. You can bind all outgoing RADIUS requests
+to a single source IP e.g. the loopback interface.
-.. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp client-ip-pool <POOL-NAME> next-pool <NEXT-POOL-NAME>
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication radius source-address <address>

-.. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp default-pool <POOL-NAME>
+.. note:: The ``source-address`` must be configured on one of VyOS interface.
+ Best practice would be a loopback or dummy interface.

- will get an IPv6 prefix of your defined length (mask) to terminate the
- SSTP endpoint at their side. The mask length can be set from 48 to 128
- bit long, the default value is 64.

-.. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp client-ipv6-pool <IPv6-POOL-NAME> delegate <address>
- delegation-prefix <number-of-bits>
+.. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication radius server <server> disable
- Use this command to configure DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (RFC3633) on
- SSTP. You will have to set your IPv6 pool and the length of the
- delegation prefix. From the defined IPv6 pool you will be handing out
- networks of the defined length (delegation-prefix). The length of the

- Specifies IPv4 negotiation preference.
+ Specifies which RADIUS server attribute contains the rate limit information.
+ The default attribute is `Filter-Id`.
- * **require** - Require IPv4 negotiation
- * **prefer** - Ask client for IPv4 negotiation, do not fail if it rejects
- * **allow** - Negotiate IPv4 only if client requests (Default value)
- * **deny** - Do not negotiate IPv4
+.. note:: If you set a custom RADIUS attribute you must define it on both

+
+Allocation clients ip addresses by RADIUS
+=========================================
+
+If the RADIUS server sends the attribute ``Framed-IP-Address`` then this IP
+address will be allocated to the client and the option ``default-pool`` within the CLI

+The configuration mode folder and the articles cover the specific level of
+the commands. The exact level depends on the command. This should provide
+stability for URLs used in the forum or blogpost.
-* Clone fork to local machine, then change to that directory
- ``$ cd vyos-documentation``
+For example:
-* Install the requirements ``$ pip install -r requirements.txt``
- (or something similar)
+ * ``set firewall zone`` is written in ``firewall/zone.rst``
+ * ``set interfaces ethernet`` is written in ``interfaces/ethernet.rst``
-* Create a new branch for your work, use a descriptive name of your work:
- ``$ git checkout -b <branch-name>``
+In the configuration part of the page, all possible configuration options
+should be documented. Use ``.. cfgcmd::`` described above.
-* Make all your changes - please keep our commit rules in mind
- (:ref:`prepare_commit`). This mainly applies to proper commit messages
- describing your change (how and why). Please check out the documentation of
- Sphinx-doc_ or reStructuredText_ if you are not familiar with it. This is used
- for writing our docs. Additional directives how to write in RST can be
- obtained from reStructuredTextDirectives_.
+Related operation command must be documented in the next part of the article.
+Use ``::opcmd..`` for these commands.
-* Check your changes by locally building the documentation ``$ make livehtml``.
- Sphinx will build the html files in the ``docs/_build`` folder. We provide
- you with a Docker container for an easy-to-use user experience. Check the
- README.md_ file of this repository.
+Each page must contain the following parts:
-* View modified files by calling ``$ git status``. You will get an overview of
- all files modified by you. You can add individual files to the Git Index in
- the next step.
+1. Theoretical information
+--------------------------
-* Add modified files to Git index ``$ git add path/to/filename`` or add all
- unstaged files ``$ git add .``. All files added to the Git index will be part
- of you following Git commit.
+Theoretical information required for users to understand the next document sections:
-* Commit your changes with the message, ``$ git commit -m "<commit message>"``
- or use ``$ git commit -v`` to have your configured editor launched. You can
- type in a commit message. Again please make yourself comfortable without
- rules (:ref:`prepare_commit`).
+ - a simple explanation of what is this page about, why or when it is required to be used

- see a banner suggesting to make a pull request. Fill out the form and
- describe what you do.
+ Describe CLI items related to the service or use case. Each config line
+ or section must be explained, using information provided in the 1st part
+ of the page.
-* Once pull requests have been approved, you may want to locally update
- your forked repository too. First you'll have to add a second remote
- called `upstream` which points to our main repository. ``$ git remote add
- upstream https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation.git``
+3. Configuration examples
+-------------------------
- Check your configured remote repositories:
+ Practical examples of the service or use case configuration. They must
+ contain topology maps (if applicable) and short descriptions.
- .. code-block:: none
+4. Known issues
+---------------
- $ git remote -v
- origin https://github.com/<username>/vyos-documentation.git (fetch)
- origin https://github.com/<username>/vyos.documentation.git (push)
- upstream https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation.git (fetch)
- upstream https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation.git (push)
+This section must contain a list of:
- Your remote repo on Github is called ``origin``, while the original repo you
- have forked is called ``upstream``. Now you can locally update your forked
- repo.
+ - known issues or potential problems for the service or use case
+ - workarounds for known issues (if any exist)
- .. code-block:: none
+5. Debugging
+------------
+
+Described procedures for debugging a service:
+
+ - how to collect logs or other debugging information (like `show` commands output)
+ - how to read and what to search for in logs and collected information
+ - what are indicators of good and bad states in debugging outputs
- $ git fetch upstream
- $ git checkout master
- $ git merge upstream/master
-* If you also want to update your fork on GitHub, use the following: ``$ git
- push origin master``

-Page content
-------------
-The documentation has 3 different types of pages. The same kind of pages must
-have the same structure to achieve a recognition factor.
+Forking Workflow
+================
-All RST files must follow the same TOC Level syntax and have to start with
+The Forking Workflow is fundamentally different from other popular Git
+workflows. Instead of using a single server-side repository to act as the
+"central" codebase, it gives every developer their own server-side repository.
+This means that each contributor has not one, but two Git repositories: a
+private local one and a public server-side one.
-.. code-block::
+The main advantage of the Forking Workflow is that contributions can be
+integrated without the need for everybody to push to a single central
+repository. Developers push to their own server-side repositories, and only the
+project maintainer can push to the official repository. This allows the
+maintainer to accept commits from any developer without giving them write
+access to the official codebase.

+.. note:: Updates to our documentation should be delivered by a GitHub
+ pull-request. This requires you already have a GitHub account.
-Configuration mode pages
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* Fork this project on GitHub https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation/fork
-The configuration mode folder and the articles cover the specific level of
-the commands. The exact level depends on the command. This should provide
-stability for URLs used in the forum or blogpost.
+* Clone fork to local machine, then change to that directory
+ ``$ cd vyos-documentation``
-For example:
+* Install the requirements ``$ pip install -r requirements.txt``
+ (or something similar)
- * ``set firewall zone`` is written in ``firewall/zone.rst``
- * ``set interfaces ethernet`` is written in ``interfaces/ethernet.rst``
+* Create a new branch for your work, use a descriptive name of your work:
+ ``$ git checkout -b <branch-name>``
-The article starts with a short introduction about the command or the
-technology. Please include some helpful links or background information.
+* Make all your changes - please keep our commit rules in mind
+ (:ref:`prepare_commit`). This mainly applies to proper commit messages
+ describing your change (how and why). Please check out the documentation of
+ Sphinx-doc_ or reStructuredText_ if you are not familiar with it. This is used
+ for writing our docs. Additional directives how to write in RST can be
+ obtained from reStructuredTextDirectives_.
-An optional section follows. Some commands have requirements like compatible
-hardware (e.g. Wifi) or some commands you have to set before. For
-example, it is recommended to set a route-map before configuring BGP.
+* Check your changes by locally building the documentation ``$ make livehtml``.
+ Sphinx will build the html files in the ``docs/_build`` folder. We provide
+ you with a Docker container for an easy-to-use user experience. Check the
+ README.md_ file of this repository.
-In the configuration part of the page, all possible configuration options
-should be documented. Use ``.. cfgcmd::`` described above.
+* View modified files by calling ``$ git status``. You will get an overview of
+ all files modified by you. You can add individual files to the Git Index in
+ the next step.
-Related operation command must be documented in the next part of the article.
-Use ``::opcmd..`` for these commands.
+* Add modified files to Git index ``$ git add path/to/filename`` or add all
+ unstaged files ``$ git add .``. All files added to the Git index will be part
+ of you following Git commit.
-If there some troubleshooting guides related to the commands. Explain it in the
-next optional part.
+* Commit your changes with the message, ``$ git commit -m "<commit message>"``
+ or use ``$ git commit -v`` to have your configured editor launched. You can
+ type in a commit message. Again please make yourself comfortable without
+ rules (:ref:`prepare_commit`).
-Operation mode pages
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* Push commits to your GitHub project: ``$ git push -u origin <branch-name>``
-Operation mode commands that do not fit in a related configuration mode command
-must be documented in this part of the documentation.
+* Submit pull-request. In GitHub visit the main repository and you should
+ see a banner suggesting to make a pull request. Fill out the form and
+ describe what you do.
-General concepts for troubleshooting and detailed process descriptions belong
-here.
+* Once pull requests have been approved, you may want to locally update
+ your forked repository too. First you'll have to add a second remote
+ called `upstream` which points to our main repository. ``$ git remote add
+ upstream https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation.git``
-Anything else
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+ Check your configured remote repositories:
-Anything else that is not a configuration or an operation command has no
-predefined structure.
+ .. code-block:: none
+ $ git remote -v
+ origin https://github.com/<username>/vyos-documentation.git (fetch)
+ origin https://github.com/<username>/vyos.documentation.git (push)
+ upstream https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation.git (fetch)
+ upstream https://github.com/vyos/vyos-documentation.git (push)
+
+ Your remote repo on Github is called ``origin``, while the original repo you
+ have forked is called ``upstream``. Now you can locally update your forked
+ repo.
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ $ git fetch upstream
+ $ git checkout master
+ $ git merge upstream/master
+
+* If you also want to update your fork on GitHub, use the following: ``$ git
+ push origin master``
