    Skydive in Kolla

    Overview
    ========
    Skydive is an open source real-time network topology and protocols analyzer.
    It aims to provide a comprehensive way of understanding what is happening in
    the network infrastructure.
    Skydive agents collect topology information and flows and forward them to a
    central agent for further analysis.
    All the information is stored in an Elasticsearch database.
    
    Configuration on Kolla deployment
    ---------------------------------
    
    Enable Skydive in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``
    
    .. code-block:: console
    
        enable_skydive: "yes"
        enable_elasticsearch: "yes"
    
    Verify operation
    ----------------
    
    After successful deployment, Skydive can be accessed using a browser on
    ``<kolla_external_vip_address>:8085``.
    
    The default username is ``admin``, the password can be located under
    ``<keystone_admin_password>`` in ``/etc/kolla/passwords.yml``.
