Config Sync
###########
Configuration synchronization (config sync) is a feature of VyOS that
permits synchronization of the configuration of one VyOS router to
another in a network.
The main benefit to configuration synchronization is that it eliminates having
to manually replicate configuration changes made on the primary router to the
secondary (replica) router.
The writing of the configuration to the secondary router is performed through
the VyOS HTTP API. The user can specify which portion(s) of the configuration will
be synchronized and the mode to use - whether to replace or add.
To prevent issues with divergent configurations between the pair of routers,
synchronization is strictly unidirectional from primary to replica. Both
routers should be online and run the same version of VyOS.
Configuration
-------------
.. cfgcmd:: set service config-sync secondary
<address|key|timeout|port>
Specify the address, API key, timeout and port of the secondary router.
You need to enable and configure the HTTP API service on the secondary
router for config sync to operate.
.. cfgcmd:: set service config-sync section <section>
Specify the section of the configuration to synchronize. If more than one
section is to be synchronized, repeat the command to add additional
sections as required.
.. cfgcmd:: set service config-sync mode <load|set>
Two options are available for `mode`: either `load` and replace or `set`
the configuration section.
.. code-block:: none
Supported options for <section> include:
firewall
interfaces <interface>
nat
nat66
pki
policy
protocols <protocol>
qos <interface|policy>
service <service>
system <conntrack|
flow-accounting|option|sflow|static-host-mapping|sysctl|time-zone>
vpn
vrf
Example
-------
* Synchronize the time-zone and OSPF configuration from Router A to Router B
* The address of Router B is 10.0.20.112 and the port used is 8443
Configure the HTTP API service on Router B
.. code-block:: none
set service https listen-address '10.0.20.112'
set service https port '8443'
set service https api keys id KID key 'foo'
Configure the config-sync service on Router A
.. code-block:: none
set service config-sync mode 'load'
set service config-sync secondary address '10.0.20.112'
set service config-sync secondary port '8443'
set service config-sync secondary key 'foo'
set service config-sync section protocols 'ospf'
set service config-sync section system 'time-zone'
Make config-sync relevant changes to Router A's configuration
.. code-block:: none
vyos@vyos-A# set system time-zone 'America/Los_Angeles'
vyos@vyos-A# commit
INFO:vyos_config_sync:Config synchronization: Mode=load,
Secondary=10.0.20.112
vyos@vyos-A# save
vyos@vyos-A# set protocols ospf area 0 network '10.0.48.0/30'
vyos@vyos-A# commit
INFO:vyos_config_sync:Config synchronization: Mode=load,
Secondary=10.0.20.112
yos@vyos-A# save
Verify configuration changes have been replicated to Router B
.. code-block:: none
vyos@vyos-B:~$ show configuration commands | match time-zone
set system time-zone 'America/Los_Angeles'
vyos@vyos-B:~$ show configuration commands | match ospf
set protocols ospf area 0 network '10.0.48.0/30'
Known issues
------------
Configuration resynchronization. With the current implementation of `service
config-sync`, the secondary node must be online.
