How to configure neutron firewall_driver as openvswitch via templates

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • After overcloud deployment, in order to make our virtual applications work we had to modify the firewall_driver to “openvswitch” manually on the compute nodes.
  • The original default value in [securitygroup] section of the neutron.conf was:

    firewall_driver = neutron.agent.linux.iptables_firewall.OVSHybrydIptablesFirewallDriver
    
  • How to modified it to:

    firewall_driver = openvswitch 
    
  • how to achieve it during initial overcloud deployment via templates.
