Launching a routerΒΆ

To create a router in Binero cloud, you have four main options as outlined in the links below. Each option have its pros and cons:

  • The cloud management portal is very easy to use and will get a user with limited prior knowledge from A to B quickly. The tradeoff is that advanced features are not always available.

  • OpenStack Horizon is the web interface included in OpenStack. Some advanced features might only have a GUI implementation here.

  • The OpenStack terminal client is a command line implementation of OpenStack Horizon giving terminal oriented users a (very) quick way to access the cloud. The learning curve is steeper than the GUI implementation but the workflow will be very efficient.

  • The API is the full OpenStack REST API. Its intended for users that are either writing infrastructure as code or using a third party application (for instance Terraform) that needs to reach the cloud provisioning layer directly.

Note

In order to create your router, you will first need to know in what availability zone to create it.
