Octavia API v1 (SUPORTED)¶

Authentication¶

Warning

This API should be only used for internal access such as from the neutron-lbaas octavia driver. It does not support access control.

Using the version 1 API¶

For the purpose of examples, assume there is an Octavia API server running at the URL http://octavia.example.com on the default port 80.

Note: Requests to update any resource on a load balancer in an immutable state will fail with a response code 409.

Available Statuses on Entities¶

Status type	Statuses
Operating Status	`ONLINE`, `OFFLINE`, `DEGRADED`, `ERROR`, `NO_MONITOR`
Provisioning Status	`ACTIVE`, `DELETED`, `ERROR`, `PENDING_DELETE`, `PENDING_UPDATE`, `PENDING_CREATE`

Response Codes¶

200 - The synchronous request was successful
202 - The asynchronous request was accepted and is being processed
400 - The request could not be understood
- Example: Malformed JSON in request body
401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials
403 - The project is over quota for the request
404 - The requested resource does not exist
409 - The request has a conflict with existing resources
- Example: Protocol for listener does not match protocol on pool
500 - The request encountered an unexpected failure
503 - The project is busy with other requests, try again later

Load Balancers¶

Fully Populated Load Balancer Object
Parameters	Type	Description
id	UUID	Load Balancer ID
vip	VIP Object	JSON VIP object below
project_id	UUID	`UUID` for project
name	String	String for load balancer name
description	String	String detailing information about the load balancer
enabled	Boolean	Whether or not the load balancer should be online immediately
operating_status	String	Network status of a load balancer
provisioning_status	String	Physical status of a load balancer

Virtual IP¶

The following table lists the attributes of a VIP. If only port_id is provided then the network_id will be populated. If only network_id is provided then a port will be created and the port_id will be returned. If an ip_address is provided then that IP will be attempted to be assigned to the VIP as long as port_id or network_id is provided as well.

Fully Populated VIP Object
Parameters	Type	Description
ip_address	IPv(4\|6)	Frontend IP of load balancer
port_id	UUID	`UUID` for port (equivalent to neutron port)
network_id	UUID	`UUID` for network (equivalent to neutron subnet)

Layer 7 Rules¶

Layer 7 rules are individual statements of logic which match parts of an HTTP request, session, or other protocol-specific data for any given client request. All the layer 7 rules associated with a given layer 7 policy are logically ANDed together to see whether the policy matches a given client request. If logical OR behavior is desired instead, the user should instead create multiple layer 7 policies with rules which match each of the components of the logical OR statement.
