NetBox

NetBox is an IP address management (IPAM) and data center infrastructure management (DCIM) tool.

TL;DR

$ helm repo add bootc https://charts.boo.tc
$ helm install netbox \
  --set postgresql.postgresqlPostgresPassword=[password1] \
  --set postgresql.postgresqlPassword=[password2] \
  --set redis.auth.password=[password3] \
  bootc/netbox

Prerequisites

This chart has only been tested on Kubernetes 1.18+, but should work on 1.14+
This chart works with NetBox 3.0.0+ (3.0.11+ recommended)
Recent versions of Helm 3 are supported

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release and default configuration:

$ helm repo add bootc https://charts.boo.tc
$ helm install my-release \
  --set postgresql.postgresqlPostgresPassword=[password1] \
  --set postgresql.postgresqlPassword=[password2] \
  --set redis.auth.password=[password3] \
  bootc/netbox

The default configuration includes the required PostgreSQL and Redis database services, but either or both may be managed externally if required.

Production Usage

Always use an existing Secret and supply all passwords and secret keys yourself to avoid Helm re-generating any of them for you.

I strongly recommend setting both postgresql.enabled and redis.enabled to false and using a separate external PostgreSQL and Redis instance. This de-couples those services from the chart's bundled versions which may have complex upgrade requirements. I also recommend using a clustered PostgreSQL server (e.g. using Zalando's Postgres Operator) and Redis with Sentinel (e.g. using Aaron Layfield's redis-ha chart).

Set persistence.enabled to false and use the S3 storageBackend for object storage. This works well with Minio or Ceph RGW as well as Amazon S3.

Run multiple replicas of the NetBox web front-end to avoid interruptions during upgrades or at other times when the pods need to be restarted. There's no need to have multiple workers (worker.replicaCount) for better availability. Set up affinity.podAntiAffinity to avoid multiple NetBox pods being colocated on the same node, for example:

affinity:
  podAntiAffinity:
    requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
      - labelSelector:
          matchLabels:
            app.kubernetes.io/instance: netbox
            app.kubernetes.io/name: netbox
            app.kubernetes.io/component: netbox
        topologyKey: kubernetes.io/hostname

Uninstalling the Chart

To delete the chart:

$ helm delete my-release

Upgrading

Bundled PostgreSQL

When upgrading or changing settings and using the bundled Bitnami PostgreSQL sub-chart, you must provide the postgresql.postgresqlPassword at minimum. Ideally you should also supply the postgresql.postgresqlPostgresPassword and, if using replication, the postgresql.replication.password. Please see the upstream documentation for further information.

From 3.x to 4.x

NetBox 3.0.0 or above is required
The Bitnami Redis sub-chart was upgraded from 12.x to 15.x; please read the upstream upgrade notes if you are using the bundled Redis
The cacheTimeout and releaseCheck.timeout settings were removed

From 2.x to 3.x

NetBox 2.10.4 or above is required
Kubernetes 1.14 or above is required
Helm v3 or above is now required
The netbox Deployment selectors are changed, so the Deployment must be deleted on upgrades
The Bitnami PostgreSQL sub-chart was upgraded from 8.x to 10.x; please read the upstream upgrade notes if you are using the bundled PostgreSQL
The Bitnami Redis sub-chart was upgraded from 10.x to 12.x; please read the upstream upgrade notes if you are using the bundled Redis
The NGINX container is removed, on account of upstream's migration from Gunicorn to NGINX Unit
The webhooksRedis configuration key in values.yaml has been renamed to tasksRedis to match the upstream name
The redis_password key in the Secret has been renamed to redis_tasks_password

From 1.x to 2.x

If you use an external Redis you will need to update your configuration values due to the chart reflecting upstream changes in how it uses Redis. There are now separate Redis configuration blocks for webhooks and for caching, though they can both point at the same Redis instance as long as the database numbers are different.

From 0.x to 1.x

The chart dependencies on PostgreSQL and Redis have been upgraded, so you may need to take action depending on how you have configured the chart. The PostgreSQL chart was upgraded from 5.x.x to 7.x.x, and Redis from 8.x.x to 9.x.x.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install or provide a YAML file containing the values for the above parameters:

$ helm install --name my-release bootc/netbox --values values.yaml

Using an Existing Secret

Rather than specifying passwords and secrets as part of the Helm release values, you may pass these to NetBox using a pre-existing Secret resource. When using this, the Secret must contain the following keys:

Key	Description	Required?
`db_password`	The password for the external PostgreSQL database	If `postgresql.enabled` is `false` and `externalDatabase.existingSecretName` is unset
`email_password`	SMTP user password	Yes, but the value may be left blank if not required
`ldap_bind_password`	Password for LDAP bind DN	If `remoteAuth.enabled` is `true` and `remoteAuth.backend` is `netbox.authentication.LDAPBackend`
`napalm_password`	NAPALM user password	Yes, but the value may be left blank if not required
`redis_tasks_password`	Password for the external Redis tasks database	If `redis.enabled` is `false` and `tasksRedis.existingSecretName` is unset
`redis_cache_password`	Password for the external Redis cache database	If `redis.enabled` is `false` and `cachingRedis.existingSecretName` is unset
`secret_key`	Django secret key used for sessions and password reset tokens	Yes
`superuser_password`	Password for the initial super-user account	Yes
`superuser_api_token`	API token created for the initial super-user account	Yes

Using extraConfig for S3 storage configuration

If you want to use S3 as your storage backend and not have the config in the values.yaml (credentials!) you can use an existing secret that is then referenced under the extraConfig key.

The secret would look like this:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  labels:
    app.kubernetes.io/instance: netbox
  name: netbox-extra
stringData:
  s3-config.yaml: |
    STORAGE_CONFIG:
      AWS_S3_ENDPOINT_URL: <endpoint-URL>
      AWS_S3_REGION_NAME: <region>
      AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME: <bucket-name>
      AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: <access-key>
      AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: <secret-key>

And the secret then has to be referenced like this:

extraConfig:
  - secret: # same as pod.spec.volumes.secret
      secretName: netbox-extra

Configuring SSO

You can leverage the extraConfig value in conjunction with remoteAuth to configure SSO. An example:

remoteAuth:
  enabled: true
  backend: social_core.backends.keycloak.KeycloakOAuth2
  autoCreateUser: false

extraConfig:
  - values:
      SOCIAL_AUTH_KEYCLOAK_KEY: 'netbox'
      SOCIAL_AUTH_KEYCLOAK_SECRET: 'HaveANiceDay'
      SOCIAL_AUTH_KEYCLOAK_PUBLIC_KEY: 'MII....'
      SOCIAL_AUTH_KEYCLOAK_AUTHORIZATION_URL: 'https://keycloak.yourdomain.com/auth/realms/YourRealm/protocol/openid-connect/auth'
      SOCIAL_AUTH_KEYCLOAK_ACCESS_TOKEN_URL: 'https://keycloak.yourdomain.com/auth/realms/YourRealm/protocol/openid-connect/token'
      SOCIAL_AUTH_KEYCLOAK_ID_KEY: 'email'
      SOCIAL_AUTH_JSONFIELD_ENABLED: True

Using LDAP Authentication

In order to enable LDAP authentication, please carry out the following steps:

Set image.tag in your values to an image with LDAP support (e.g. v3.0.11-ldap)
Configure the remoteAuth settings to enable the LDAP backend (see below)
Make sure you set all of the remoteAuth.ldap settings shown in the values.yaml file

For example:

remoteAuth:
  enabled: true
  backend: netbox.authentication.LDAPBackend
  ldap:
    serverUri: 'ldap://domain.com'
    startTls: true
    ignoreCertErrors: true
    bindDn: ''
    bindPassword: ''
    # and ALL the other remoteAuth.ldap.* settings from values.yaml

Note: in order to use anonymous LDAP binding set bindDn and bindPassword to an empty string as in the example above.
