Hey Ildiko,
Thanks for running the meeting.
A lot of people in Ottawa we're without power last night, so could not log in to meeting.
I, personally, had power … but completely forgot about the meeting, DOH … apologies.
Some in-lined comments below …

Hi StarlingX community,
We had a handful of people on the Community call today. We decided to use the meeting to discuss some ongoing challenges and next steps.
Scott Kamp brought up a few items with regards to network configuration recommendations and challenges within the platform:
* Network bond + LAG
- The documentation suggests 3 networks in a standards setup. This translates to 6 interfaces when setting up a LAG, which is too many.
- Using VLAN as a workaround doesn’t always work, not every commercial network provider allows for that setup.
[Greg]
Just to be clear … what are the 3x networks we are referring to here ? oam, mgmt and cluster-host ?
VLANs would be the first approach to reduce the number of physical interfaces.
Alternatively you can also multi-net the networks on the same L2 network.
That is what we typically do in our labs for the mgmt and cluster-host networks.
We're there any other ideas on how to reduce physical interfaces ?
- There’s an issue with bonding in Debian Bullseye
+ —> Has anyone ran or looked into the above issue? ^^
* Wireguard
- While Wireguard is enabled on StarlingX, Wireguard tools is not. Scott and team are working on testing and adding it
* Calico support
- Scott and team are working with Calico and are planning to add that to the platform
- Scott will propose a spec to introduce the feature idea and move the conversation forward
[Greg]
I don't understand this comment.
StarlingX uses Calico today as its primary/default CNI.
* Addressing the lower attendance
- Wednesday was a public holiday in China, which probably affected attendance on Thursday morning
- Ildiko will look into advertising the APAC time slot call better in the region
[Greg]
As mentioned above … most people in Ottawa had a power outage due to an ice rain storm.
Although for me … no excuse … I just completely forgot … apologies.
Greg.
Best Regards,
Ildikó
