4. Integrating Magma Access Gateway with Magma Orchestrator

Integrate Magma Access Gateway with Magma Orchestrator

Offer an application endpoint from Orchestrator:

juju offer orc8r.orc8r-nginx:orchestrator
juju consume orc8r.orc8r-nginx

Relate Magma Access Gateway with Orchestrator:

juju relate orc8r-nginx:orchestrator magma-access-gateway-operator

Wait for the application to go back to Active-Idle:

ubuntu@host:~$ juju status
Model  Controller     Cloud/Region   Version  SLA          Timestamp
edge   aws-us-east-2  aws/us-east-2  2.9.42   unsupported  16:09:01-05:00

App                            Version  Status  Scale  Charm                          Channel  Rev  Exposed  Message

Fetch the Access Gateway's Hardware ID and Challenge Key and note those values:

juju run-action magma-access-gateway-operator/0 get-access-gateway-secrets --wait

The output should look like:

ubuntu@host:~$ juju run-action magma-access-gateway-operator/0 get-access-gateway-secrets --wait
unit-magma-access-gateway-operator-0:
  UnitId: magma-access-gateway-operator/0
