Link a MySQL sync cluster to a dedicated server

For your information

Some dedicated server configurations of the Chipcore Line cannot be added to a global router network because they lack a port for private network connection. You can check for a private network port in the Control Panel on the server page on the Ports **** tab.

1. Create a global router.
2. Connect the network and subnet to the global router up to the dedicated server VLAN.
3. Connect the network and subnet to the global router up to the cloud platform project.
4. Assign IP addresses from the created subnets to the dedicated server.
5. Specify routes on the dedicated server.
6. Create a Managed Database cluster: new or from a backup of an existing Managed Database cluster.

See an example of network organization between a dedicated server and a Managed Database.

Example of network organization between a Managed Database and a dedicated server

If you need to configure private connectivity between a dedicated server in the SPB-2 pool and a new Managed Database in the ru-2 pool:

1. Create a global router.
2. Connect two private subnets to the router — 192.168.0.0/29 with gateway 192.168.0.1 for the SPB-2 pool and 172.16.0.0/29 with gateway 172.16.0.1 for the ru-2 pool.
3. Assign an address from the 192.168.0.0/29 subnet to the dedicated server, for example, 192.168.0.2.
4. Specify routes on the dedicated server in the SPB-2 pool — to subnet 172.16.0.0/29 via gateway 192.168.0.1.
5. Create a new Managed Database cluster on subnet 172.16.0.0/29.

Create a global router

1. In the Control panel, in the top menu, click Products and select Global Router.
2. Click Create router. A limit of five global routers is set for each account.
3. Enter the router name.
4. Click Create.
5. If the router was created with the status ERROR or is stuck in one of the statuses, create a ticket.

Connect network and subnet to router up to dedicated server VLAN

You can connect a new or existing network to the router if it is not already connected to any of the account's global routers.

1. In the control panel, on the top menu, click Products and select Global Router.

2. Go to the router page → Networks tab.

3. Click Create network.

4. Enter a network name. It will only be used in the control panel.

5. Select the Servers and Equipment service.

6. Select a location for the network.

7. Select or enter a VLAN.

8. If you want to create a network up to an internal segment (Q-in-Q), specify its tag—a number from 2 to 4094. If a network already exists for the VLAN, you must specify the Q-in-Q segment of this VLAN.

9. Enter a subnet name. It will only be used in the control panel.

10. Enter the CIDR—the IP address and mask of the private subnet. You can enter a new subnet or an existing private server subnet if it has not yet been added to any of the global routers in the account. The subnet must meet the following conditions:

    • belong to the RFC 1918 private address range: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 or 192.168.0.0/16;
    • have a size of at least /29, as three addresses will be occupied by Servercore network equipment;
    • do not overlap with other subnets added to this router—IP addresses must not repeat across subnets on the same router;
    • if a Managed Kubernetes cluster on cloud servers is included in the global router network, the subnet must not overlap with the ranges 10.10.0.0/16, 10.96.0.0/12, 10.250.0.0/16 and 10.251.0.0/24. If a cluster on dedicated servers is included in the network — with ranges 10.10.0.0/16, 10.222.0.0/16, 10.250.0.0/16, 10.251.0.0/24 and 172.250.0.0/14. These subnets are used for Managed Kubernetes internal addressing, and their use may lead to conflicts in the global router network.

11. Enter the gateway IP or leave the first address from the subnet that is assigned by default. Do not assign this address to your devices to avoid network disruption.

12. Enter the service IPs or leave the last addresses from the subnet that are assigned by default. Do not assign these addresses to your devices to avoid network disruption.

13. Click Create network.

14. Optional: check the network topology on the global router. In the Control panel, in the top menu, click Products → Global Router → router page → Network map.

15. If you specified a Q-in-Q tag in step 8, you need to enable Q-in-Q technology on the switch port and configure the private network interface that you specified in step 10. Learn more in the Configure Q-in-Q section of the Q-in-Q guide.

Connect network and subnet to router up to cloud platform project

You can connect a new or existing network to the router if it is not already connected to any of the account's global routers.

Connect a new network

1. In the Control panel, on the top menu, click Products and select Global Router.

2. Open the router page → Networks tab.

3. Click Create network.

4. Enter a network name. It will only be used in the control panel.

5. Select the Cloud Platform service.

6. Select a location for the network.

7. Select a project.

8. Enter a subnet name. It will only be used in the control panel.

9. Enter the CIDR — IP address and subnet mask. The subnet must meet the following conditions:

   • belong to the RFC 1918 private address range: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 or 192.168.0.0/16;
   • have a size of at least /29, as three addresses will be occupied by Servercore network equipment;
   • it does not overlap with other subnets added to this router — there must be no identical IP addresses within the subnets of one router;
   • if a Managed Kubernetes cluster on cloud servers is to be connected to the global router network, the subnet must not overlap with the 10.10.0.0/16, 10.96.0.0/12, 10.250.0.0/16 and 10.251.0.0/24. If a cluster on dedicated servers is connected to the network, it must not overlap with the 10.10.0.0/16, 10.222.0.0/16, 10.250.0.0/16, 10.251.0.0/24 and 172.250.0.0/14. These subnets are used for Managed Kubernetes internal addressing, and their use may cause conflicts in the global router network.

10. Enter the gateway IP or leave the first address from the subnet, which is assigned by default. Do not assign this address to your devices to avoid disrupting network operation.

11. Enter the service IPs or leave the last addresses from the subnet, which are assigned by default. Do not assign these addresses to your devices to avoid disrupting network operation.

12. Click Create network.

13. Optional: check the network topology on the global router. In the Control panel, on the top menu, click Products → Global Router → router page → Network Map.

Connect an existing network

1. Ensure the network is not already added to any global router in your account. In the Control panel, on the top menu, click Products → Cloud Servers → Network → tab Private networks → check that the network card does not have the tag Global Router.

2. Verify that the subnet meets the following conditions:

   • belongs to the RFC 1918 private address range: 10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12 or 192.168.0.0/16;
   • is at least /29, as three addresses will be occupied by Servercore network equipment;
   • it does not overlap with other subnets added to this router: the IP addresses of each subnet on the router must not match the IP addresses of other subnets on it;
   • if a Managed Kubernetes cluster on cloud servers is to be connected to the global router network, the subnet must not overlap with the 10.10.0.0/16, 10.96.0.0/12, 10.250.0.0/16 and 10.251.0.0/24. If a cluster on dedicated servers is connected to the network, it must not overlap with the 10.10.0.0/16, 10.222.0.0/16, 10.250.0.0/16, 10.251.0.0/24 and 172.250.0.0/14. These subnets are used for Managed Kubernetes internal addressing, and their use may cause conflicts in the global router network.

3. In the Control panel, on the top menu, click Products and select Cloud Servers.

4. Go to Network → tab Private networks.

5. From the network menu, select Connect to Global Router.

6. Select a global router.

7. For each subnet in the network, enter the IP address to be assigned to the router or leave the first available address from the subnet, which is assigned by default. Do not assign this address to your devices to avoid disrupting network operation. The last two available subnet addresses will be reserved as service addresses.

8. Click Connect. Do not close the window until a message appears confirming the network has been connected. After that, in the control panel:

   • the network will appear in the section Servercore Global Router on the router page to which you connected it;
   • in the section Cloud Servers → Network → on the tab Private networks, the network will have the tag Global Router.
