The Netris Plugin
=================

Introduction
------------

The Netris Plugin introduces Netris as a network service provider in CloudStack to be able to create and manage Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) in CloudStack, being able to orchestrate the following network functionalities:

- Network segmentation with Netris-VXLAN isolation method
- Routing between “public” IP and network segments with an ACS ROUTED mode offering
- SourceNAT, DNAT, 1:1 NAT between “public” IP and network segments with an ACS NATTED mode offering
- Routing between VPC network segments (tiers in ACS nomenclature)
- Access Lists (ACLs) between VPC tiers and "public" network (TCP, UDP, ICMP) both as global egress rules and “public” IP specific ingress rules.
- ACLs between VPC network tiers (TCP, UDP, ICMP)
- External load balancing – between VPC network tiers and “public” IP
- Internal load balancing – between VPC network tiers
- CloudStack Virtual Router services (DHCP, DNS, UserData, Password Injection, etc…)
