openstack-sflow-traffic-billing
Python sFlow collector capable of classifying flows and reporting traffic counters to ceilometer.
This code should be considered "proof of concept" quality at this time.
Uses
- Integration of existing sFlow infrastructure with OpenStack.
- In situations where you may want to offer differentiated billing to certain classes of traffic (e.g. traffic to or from local peering exchanges or specially discounted destinations)
Configuration
Lists of addresses should be stored in files in CIDR format (e.g. 192.0.2.0/24 or 2001:db8::/64) and specified in the accounting.cfg file.
IP addresses on the "local" network for which accounting data is collected should be specified in a file of the same format and configured with the local-networks setting.
Traffic that is not able to be classified will be assigned a classification configured with the unclassifiable settings.
The OpenStack regions to examine should be listed in the regions section.
