Tacker Tutorial

This section provides a short tutorial on how one can make use of the Tacker service and API. The Tacker CLI is available on the OpenStack Controller node. To make use of the CLI one has to follow the following steps:

SSH to Fuel Master node:

  ssh root@192.168.170.2 (pwd: r00tme)

From Fuel Master SSH to OpenStack Controller node:

  ssh 192.168.170.3 (no pwd needed)

Source tacker credentials:

  cd tacker/
  source tackerrc

Now use Tacker CLI and refer to the Tacker CLI documentation https://docs.openstack.org/tacker/latest/user/vnfm_usage_guide.html. Tacker is also accessable via Rest API or python client. The API documentation is available https://docs.openstack.org/tacker/latest/contributor/api/mano_api.html. For the purposes of this project we implemented a Rest client in python that can be used as an example and is available https://wiki.dai-labor.de/Datei:Tacker_client.txt#file.
