 Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF)
 ====================================
 The VRF device combined with ip rules provides the ability to create virtual
 routing and forwarding domains (aka VRFs, VRF-lite to be specific) in the
 Linux network stack. One use case is the multi-tenancy problem where each
 tenant has their own unique routing tables and in the very least need
 different default gateways.

 Processes can be "VRF aware" by binding a socket to the VRF device. Packets
 through the socket then use the routing table associated with the VRF
 device. An important feature of the VRF device implementation is that it
 impacts only Layer 3 and above so L2 tools (e.g., LLDP) are not affected
 (ie., they do not need to be run in each VRF). The design also allows
 the use of higher priority ip rules (Policy Based Routing, PBR) to take
 precedence over the VRF device rules directing specific traffic as desired.

 In addition, VRF devices allow VRFs to be nested within namespaces. For
 example network namespaces provide separation of network interfaces at the
 device layer, VLANs on the interfaces within a namespace provide L2 separation
 and then VRF devices provide L3 separation.

 Design
 ------
 A VRF device is created with an associated route table. Network interfaces
 are then enslaved to a VRF device:

          +-----------------------------+
          |           vrf-blue          |  ===> route table 10
          +-----------------------------+
             |        |            |
          +------+ +------+     +-------------+
          | eth1 | | eth2 | ... |    bond1    |
          +------+ +------+     +-------------+
                                   |       |
                               +------+ +------+
                               | eth8 | | eth9 |
                               +------+ +------+

 Packets received on an enslaved device and are switched to the VRF device
 in the IPv4 and IPv6 processing stacks giving the impression that packets
 flow through the VRF device. Similarly on egress routing rules are used to
 send packets to the VRF device driver before getting sent out the actual
 interface. This allows tcpdump on a VRF device to capture all packets into
 and out of the VRF as a whole.[1] Similarly, netfilter[2] and tc rules can be
 applied using the VRF device to specify rules that apply to the VRF domain
 as a whole.

 [1] Packets in the forwarded state do not flow through the device, so those
     packets are not seen by tcpdump. Will revisit this limitation in a
     future release.

 [2] Iptables on ingress supports PREROUTING with skb->dev set to the real
     ingress device and both INPUT and PREROUTING rules with skb->dev set to
     the VRF device. For egress POSTROUTING and OUTPUT rules can be written
     using either the VRF device or real egress device.

 Setup
 -----
 1. VRF device is created with an association to a FIB table.
    e.g, ip link add vrf-blue type vrf table 10
         ip link set dev vrf-blue up

 2. An l3mdev FIB rule directs lookups to the table associated with the device.
    A single l3mdev rule is sufficient for all VRFs. The VRF device adds the
    l3mdev rule for IPv4 and IPv6 when the first device is created with a
    default preference of 1000. Users may delete the rule if desired and add
    with a different priority or install per-VRF rules.

    Prior to the v4.8 kernel iif and oif rules are needed for each VRF device:
        ip ru add oif vrf-blue table 10
        ip ru add iif vrf-blue table 10

 3. Set the default route for the table (and hence default route for the VRF).
        ip route add table 10 unreachable default

 4. Enslave L3 interfaces to a VRF device.
        ip link set dev eth1 master vrf-blue

    Local and connected routes for enslaved devices are automatically moved to
    the table associated with VRF device. Any additional routes depending on
    the enslaved device are dropped and will need to be reinserted to the VRF
    FIB table following the enslavement.

    The IPv6 sysctl option keep_addr_on_down can be enabled to keep IPv6 global
    addresses as VRF enslavement changes.
        sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.keep_addr_on_down=1

 5. Additional VRF routes are added to associated table.
        ip route add table 10 ...


 Applications
 ------------
 Applications that are to work within a VRF need to bind their socket to the
 VRF device:

     setsockopt(sd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_BINDTODEVICE, dev, strlen(dev)+1);

 or to specify the output device using cmsg and IP_PKTINFO.

 TCP & UDP services running in the default VRF context (ie., not bound
 to any VRF device) can work across all VRF domains by enabling the
 tcp_l3mdev_accept and udp_l3mdev_accept sysctl options:
     sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_l3mdev_accept=1
     sysctl -w net.ipv4.udp_l3mdev_accept=1

 netfilter rules on the VRF device can be used to limit access to services
 running in the default VRF context as well.

 The default VRF does not have limited scope with respect to port bindings.
 That is, if a process does a wildcard bind to a port in the default VRF it
 owns the port across all VRF domains within the network namespace.

 Using iproute2 for VRFs
 =======================
 iproute2 supports the vrf keyword as of v4.7. For backwards compatibility this
 section lists both commands where appropriate -- with the vrf keyword and the
 older form without it.

 1. Create a VRF

    To instantiate a VRF device and associate it with a table:
        $ ip link add dev NAME type vrf table ID

    As of v4.8 the kernel supports the l3mdev FIB rule where a single rule
    covers all VRFs. The l3mdev rule is created for IPv4 and IPv6 on first
    device create.

 2. List VRFs

    To list VRFs that have been created:
        $ ip [-d] link show type vrf
          NOTE: The -d option is needed to show the table id

    For example:
    $ ip -d link show type vrf
    11: mgmt: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
        vrf table 1 addrgenmode eui64
    12: red: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
        vrf table 10 addrgenmode eui64
    13: blue: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
        vrf table 66 addrgenmode eui64
    14: green: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether e6:28:b8:63:70:bb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
        vrf table 81 addrgenmode eui64


    Or in brief output:

    $ ip -br link show type vrf
    mgmt         UP             72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
    red          UP             b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
    blue         UP             36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
    green        UP             e6:28:b8:63:70:bb <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>


 3. Assign a Network Interface to a VRF

    Network interfaces are assigned to a VRF by enslaving the netdevice to a
    VRF device:
        $ ip link set dev NAME master NAME

    On enslavement connected and local routes are automatically moved to the
    table associated with the VRF device.

    For example:
    $ ip link set dev eth0 master mgmt


 4. Show Devices Assigned to a VRF

    To show devices that have been assigned to a specific VRF add the master
    option to the ip command:
        $ ip link show vrf NAME
        $ ip link show master NAME

    For example:
    $ ip link show vrf red
    3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    7: eth5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master red state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff


    Or using the brief output:
    $ ip -br link show vrf red
    eth1             UP             02:00:00:00:02:02 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
    eth2             UP             02:00:00:00:02:03 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
    eth5             DOWN           02:00:00:00:02:06 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST>


 5. Show Neighbor Entries for a VRF

    To list neighbor entries associated with devices enslaved to a VRF device
    add the master option to the ip command:
        $ ip [-6] neigh show vrf NAME
        $ ip [-6] neigh show master NAME

    For example:
    $  ip neigh show vrf red
    10.2.1.254 dev eth1 lladdr a6:d9:c7:4f:06:23 REACHABLE
    10.2.2.254 dev eth2 lladdr 5e:54:01:6a:ee:80 REACHABLE

    $ ip -6 neigh show vrf red
    2002:1::64 dev eth1 lladdr a6:d9:c7:4f:06:23 REACHABLE


 6. Show Addresses for a VRF

    To show addresses for interfaces associated with a VRF add the master
    option to the ip command:
        $ ip addr show vrf NAME
        $ ip addr show master NAME

    For example:
    $ ip addr show vrf red
    3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
        inet 10.2.1.2/24 brd 10.2.1.255 scope global eth1
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 2002:1::2/120 scope global
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:202/64 scope link
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
        inet 10.2.2.2/24 brd 10.2.2.255 scope global eth2
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 2002:2::2/120 scope global
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:203/64 scope link
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    7: eth5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master red state DOWN group default qlen 1000
        link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

    Or in brief format:
    $ ip -br addr show vrf red
    eth1             UP             10.2.1.2/24 2002:1::2/120 fe80::ff:fe00:202/64
    eth2             UP             10.2.2.2/24 2002:2::2/120 fe80::ff:fe00:203/64
    eth5             DOWN


 7. Show Routes for a VRF

    To show routes for a VRF use the ip command to display the table associated
    with the VRF device:
        $ ip [-6] route show vrf NAME
        $ ip [-6] route show table ID

    For example:
    $ ip route show vrf red
    prohibit default
    broadcast 10.2.1.0 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.2.1.2
    10.2.1.0/24 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.2.1.2
    local 10.2.1.2 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope host  src 10.2.1.2
    broadcast 10.2.1.255 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.2.1.2
    broadcast 10.2.2.0 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.2.2.2
    10.2.2.0/24 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.2.2.2
    local 10.2.2.2 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope host  src 10.2.2.2
    broadcast 10.2.2.255 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.2.2.2

    $ ip -6 route show vrf red
    local 2002:1:: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    local 2002:1::2 dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    2002:1::/120 dev eth1  proto kernel  metric 256  pref medium
    local 2002:2:: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    local 2002:2::2 dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    2002:2::/120 dev eth2  proto kernel  metric 256  pref medium
    local fe80:: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    local fe80:: dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    local fe80::ff:fe00:202 dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    local fe80::ff:fe00:203 dev lo  proto none  metric 0  pref medium
    fe80::/64 dev eth1  proto kernel  metric 256  pref medium
    fe80::/64 dev eth2  proto kernel  metric 256  pref medium
    ff00::/8 dev red  metric 256  pref medium
    ff00::/8 dev eth1  metric 256  pref medium
    ff00::/8 dev eth2  metric 256  pref medium


 8. Route Lookup for a VRF

    A test route lookup can be done for a VRF:
        $ ip [-6] route get vrf NAME ADDRESS
        $ ip [-6] route get oif NAME ADDRESS

    For example:
    $ ip route get 10.2.1.40 vrf red
    10.2.1.40 dev eth1  table red  src 10.2.1.2
        cache

    $ ip -6 route get 2002:1::32 vrf red
    2002:1::32 from :: dev eth1  table red  proto kernel  src 2002:1::2  metric 256  pref medium


 9. Removing Network Interface from a VRF

    Network interfaces are removed from a VRF by breaking the enslavement to
    the VRF device:
        $ ip link set dev NAME nomaster

    Connected routes are moved back to the default table and local entries are
    moved to the local table.

    For example:
    $ ip link set dev eth0 nomaster

 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	11: mgmt: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
	vrf table 1 addrgenmode eui64
	12: red: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
	vrf table 10 addrgenmode eui64
	13: blue: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
	vrf table 66 addrgenmode eui64
	14: green: <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether e6:28:b8:63:70:bb brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff promiscuity 0
	vrf table 81 addrgenmode eui64


	Or in brief output:

	$ ip -br link show type vrf
	mgmt UP 72:b3:ba:91:e2:24 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
	red UP b6:6f:6e:f6:da:73 <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
	blue UP 36:62:e8:7d:bb:8c <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
	green UP e6:28:b8:63:70:bb <NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>


	3. Assign a Network Interface to a VRF

	Network interfaces are assigned to a VRF by enslaving the netdevice to a
	VRF device:
	$ ip link set dev NAME master NAME

	On enslavement connected and local routes are automatically moved to the
	table associated with the VRF device.

	For example:
	$ ip link set dev eth0 master mgmt


	4. Show Devices Assigned to a VRF

	To show devices that have been assigned to a specific VRF add the master
	option to the ip command:
	$ ip link show vrf NAME
	$ ip link show master NAME

	For example:
	$ ip link show vrf red
	3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
	4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
	7: eth5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master red state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff


	Or using the brief output:
	$ ip -br link show vrf red
	eth1 UP 02:00:00:00:02:02 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
	eth2 UP 02:00:00:00:02:03 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
	eth5 DOWN 02:00:00:00:02:06 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST>


	5. Show Neighbor Entries for a VRF

	To list neighbor entries associated with devices enslaved to a VRF device
	add the master option to the ip command:
	$ ip [-6] neigh show vrf NAME
	$ ip [-6] neigh show master NAME

	For example:
	$ ip neigh show vrf red
	10.2.1.254 dev eth1 lladdr a6:d9:c7:4f:06:23 REACHABLE
	10.2.2.254 dev eth2 lladdr 5e:54:01:6a:ee:80 REACHABLE

	$ ip -6 neigh show vrf red
	2002:1::64 dev eth1 lladdr a6:d9:c7:4f:06:23 REACHABLE


	6. Show Addresses for a VRF

	To show addresses for interfaces associated with a VRF add the master
	option to the ip command:
	$ ip addr show vrf NAME
	$ ip addr show master NAME

	For example:
	$ ip addr show vrf red
	3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
	inet 10.2.1.2/24 brd 10.2.1.255 scope global eth1
	valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
	inet6 2002:1::2/120 scope global
	valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
	inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:202/64 scope link
	valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
	4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master red state UP group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:03 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
	inet 10.2.2.2/24 brd 10.2.2.255 scope global eth2
	valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
	inet6 2002:2::2/120 scope global
	valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
	inet6 fe80::ff:fe00:203/64 scope link
	valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
	7: eth5: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop master red state DOWN group default qlen 1000
	link/ether 02:00:00:00:02:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

	Or in brief format:
	$ ip -br addr show vrf red
	eth1 UP 10.2.1.2/24 2002:1::2/120 fe80::ff:fe00:202/64
	eth2 UP 10.2.2.2/24 2002:2::2/120 fe80::ff:fe00:203/64
	eth5 DOWN


	7. Show Routes for a VRF

	To show routes for a VRF use the ip command to display the table associated
	with the VRF device:
	$ ip [-6] route show vrf NAME
	$ ip [-6] route show table ID

	For example:
	$ ip route show vrf red
	prohibit default
	broadcast 10.2.1.0 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.1.2
	10.2.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.1.2
	local 10.2.1.2 dev eth1 proto kernel scope host src 10.2.1.2
	broadcast 10.2.1.255 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.1.2
	broadcast 10.2.2.0 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.2.2
	10.2.2.0/24 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.2.2
	local 10.2.2.2 dev eth2 proto kernel scope host src 10.2.2.2
	broadcast 10.2.2.255 dev eth2 proto kernel scope link src 10.2.2.2

	$ ip -6 route show vrf red
	local 2002:1:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	local 2002:1::2 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	2002:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
	local 2002:2:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	local 2002:2::2 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	2002:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
	local fe80:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	local fe80:: dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	local fe80::ff:fe00:202 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	local fe80::ff:fe00:203 dev lo proto none metric 0 pref medium
	fe80::/64 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
	fe80::/64 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
	ff00::/8 dev red metric 256 pref medium
	ff00::/8 dev eth1 metric 256 pref medium
	ff00::/8 dev eth2 metric 256 pref medium


	8. Route Lookup for a VRF

	A test route lookup can be done for a VRF:
	$ ip [-6] route get vrf NAME ADDRESS
	$ ip [-6] route get oif NAME ADDRESS

	For example:
	$ ip route get 10.2.1.40 vrf red
	10.2.1.40 dev eth1 table red src 10.2.1.2
	cache

	$ ip -6 route get 2002:1::32 vrf red
	2002:1::32 from :: dev eth1 table red proto kernel src 2002:1::2 metric 256 pref medium


	9. Removing Network Interface from a VRF

	Network interfaces are removed from a VRF by breaking the enslavement to
	the VRF device:
	$ ip link set dev NAME nomaster

	Connected routes are moved back to the default table and local entries are
	moved to the local table.

	For example:
	$ ip link set dev eth0 nomaster

	--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

	Commands used in this example:

	cat >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables.d/vrf.conf <<EOF
	1 mgmt
	10 red
	66 blue
	81 green
	EOF

	function vrf_create
	{
	VRF=$1
	TBID=$2

	# create VRF device
	ip link add ${VRF} type vrf table ${TBID}

	if [ "${VRF}" != "mgmt" ]; then
	ip route add table ${TBID} unreachable default
	fi
	ip link set dev ${VRF} up
	}

	vrf_create mgmt 1
	ip link set dev eth0 master mgmt

	vrf_create red 10
	ip link set dev eth1 master red
	ip link set dev eth2 master red
	ip link set dev eth5 master red

	vrf_create blue 66
	ip link set dev eth3 master blue

	vrf_create green 81
	ip link set dev eth4 master green
