Editing an additional network

To update network settings or change network parameters for a secondary network in OKD, you can modify the configuration for an existing secondary network. Edit the NetworkAttachmentDefinition custom resource to apply your changes.

Modifying a NetworkAttachmentDefinition custom resource

To update network settings or change network parameters for a secondary network in OKD, you can modify the NetworkAttachmentDefinition custom resource. Edit the Cluster Network Operator CR to apply your changes.

Prerequisites

  • You have configured an additional network for your cluster.

  • Install the OpenShift CLI (oc).

  • Log in as a user with cluster-admin privileges.

Procedure

  1. Edit the Cluster Network Operator (CNO) CR in your default text editor by running the following command:

    $ oc edit networks.operator.openshift.io cluster

  2. In the additionalNetworks collection, update the secondary network with your changes.

  3. Save your changes and quit the text editor to commit your changes.

  4. Optional: Confirm that the CNO updated the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object by running the following command. Replace <network_name> with the name of the secondary network to display. There might be a delay before the CNO updates the NetworkAttachmentDefinition object to reflect your changes.

    $ oc get network-attachment-definitions <network_name> -o yaml

    For example, the following console output displays a NetworkAttachmentDefinition object that is named net1:

    $ oc get network-attachment-definitions net1 -o go-template='{{printf "%s\n" .spec.config}}'
