Learning OpenStack Networking (Neutron)

This is an in-depth yet easy-to-follow guide that provides you with steps to install OpenStack and configure the base networking components. Each major networking component has a dedicated chapter that builds on the experience gained from prior chapters, and provides relevant diagrams, configuration options, and examples needed to build an OpenStack cloud based on Neutron networking.
If you are an OpenStack-based cloud operator with experience in OpenStack Compute and nova-network but are new to Neutron networking, then this book is for you. Some networking experience is recommended, and a physical network infrastructure is required to provide connectivity to instances and other network resources configured in the book.
