OpenStack Orchestration to Add the subnet created to the Router interface.

OpenStack Orchestration to Add the subnet created to the Router interface.

• Please note that there is already a router that hasbeen there as 'router'
• This adds the subnet to the router so that the router 'router' can be used to route the traffic from the VMs in this network to the external network

---

The Stack file to add an interface to the router 'router' is as follows 

[root@newtonallinone HeatOrchestrationTemplates(keystone_admin)]# cat 06Routerinterfaceadd.yml
---
# for Newton release of OpenStack
#
heat_template_version: 2016-10-14

description: put the subnet to the router

resources:
  router_interface:
    type: OS::Neutron::RouterInterface
    properties:
      router: router
      subnet: internalsubnet1

outputs:
  subnet_info:
    value: { get_attr: [router_interface]}
[root@newtonallinone HeatOrchestrationTemplates(keystone_admin)]#


---

The above stack definition will add the subnet 'internalsubnet1' to the router 'router'.

the stack creation shows complete 

Lets ensure that the Router has now an interface added from the 'internalsubnet1' subnet

This shows that a port from the internal Subnet internalsubnet1 with the IP address 192.168.202.1 has been added to the router
