Vodafone Kabel Deutschland GmbH FRR on OpenShift

About

This is a dedicated connector to interface with a Red Hat OpenShift cluster and underlying PODs by utilizing the OpenShift CLI Tooling (OC Tool). The Free Range Routing (FRR) is a dedicated network routing suite under the OpenShift cluster hosting all instances to manage and deploy the network routes within the cluster.

Important

To interface with OpenShift, a dedicated CLI tool is utilized, which must be available and installed on each DataMiner Agent where an element using this protocol is hosted. Refer to the official Red Hat documentation.

Configuration

Connections

Virtual Connection

This connector uses a virtual connection and does not require any input during element creation.

The endpoint details are configured under the Connection Settings page on the element, where you can also provide the Authentication Token (Service Account). These will be used when the required commands are performed with the OC Tool to fetch or configure the data.
