Description

Currently, when port forwarding, load balancing and firewall rules are removed, their records are permanently deleted from the database. This makes it impossible to track and audit previously applied rules after their removal.

Therefore, this PR proposes to, instead of deleting the records associated with such network rules, only marking them as removed. To achieve that, a removed column has been added to the tables that store the rules metadata, allowing to track the exact date and time when a rule was removed.

Maintaining these records is essential for auditing and traceability purposes. It ensures that historical network configurations remain accessible for cloud administrators/operators, enabling proper investigation, compliance verification and analysis of past behavior, even after rules are no longer active.

Types of changes

  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • Enhancement (improves an existing feature and functionality)
  • Cleanup (Code refactoring and cleanup, that may add test cases)
  • Build/CI
  • Test (unit or integration test code)

How Has This Been Tested?

Egress rules (ER)

  1. I added an ER and verified that connectivity to the outside world was successfully established.
  2. I deleted and reintroduced the same ER and verified that connectivity to the outside world was successfully established.
  3. I added an ER allowing outbound TCP traffic for a specific port range and CIDR, and verified that connectivity to the outside world was successfully established.
  4. I restarted the guest network with clean up and verified that the ER continued to be applied successfully.
  5. I performed a live patch on the VR and verified that the ER continued to be applied successfully.
  6. I deleted the network and verified that all egress rules were marked as deleted in the DB.
Records persisted in the database after the tests

Firewall (FW)

  1. I added an FW rule allowing inbound TCP traffic from any source and verified its behavior.
  2. I deleted and reintroduced the same FW rule and verified its behavior.
  3. I deleted the previous rule and introduced a new one with a specific source CIDR and port range, and validated its behavior.
  4. I restarted the guest network with clean up and verified that the FW rule behavior remained consistent.
  5. I performed a live patch on the VR and verified that the FW rule behavior remained consistent.
  6. I deleted the network and verified that all egress rules were marked as deleted in the DB.

Public Load balancing (LB)

  1. I created a public LB rule and validated its behavior.
  2. I added a stickiness method.
  3. I removed a VM from the LB and validated its behavior.
  4. I reintroduced the VM into the LB and validated its behavior.
  5. I removed the VM again and validated its behavior.
  6. I deleted and reintroduced the stickiness method.
  7. I deleted the LB rule and verified that the VM mappings and stickiness methods were successfully removed.

Internal Load balancing (LB)

  1. I created an internal LB rule and verified its behavior.
  2. I deleted the internal LB rule and verified that the database records were marked as removed.
  3. I reintroduced the internal LB rule and verified its behavior.
  4. I deleted the VM participating in the internal LB and reintroduced it, and verified its behavior.
  5. I deleted the user VMs that were part of the tier, deleted the tier, and verified that the database records were marked as removed, as expected.
Records persisted in the database after the tests
