This PR is to handle the issue 3527.
When device boots up, NTP throws a traceback as explained in the issue 3527.
- Traceback will be seen when MGMT_VRF_CONFIG does not exist in the database. Traceback is coming from the script “/etc/init.d/ntp”.
- Traceback does not affect the NTP functionality with/without management VRF. When MGMT_VRF_CONFIG does not exist or when MGMT_VRF_CONFIG’s mgmtVrfEnabled is configured to “false”, “NTP” will be started in the “default VRF” context, which is working fine even with this traceback.
- This traceback error will be hidden by redirecting the error to /dev/null without affecting functionality.
This commit adds NTP support for management VRF using L3mdev. Config vrf add
mgmt will enable management VRF, enslave the eth0 device to the master device
mgmt, stop ntp service in default, restart interfaces-configs and restart ntp
service in mgmt-vrf context. Requirement and design are covered in mgmt vrf
design document.
