Description

This cookbook installs the OpenStack Network service (formerly project-named Quantum, current name is Neutron) as part of a Chef reference deployment of OpenStack.

More information about the OpenStack Network service is available here

Usage

OpenStack Network's design is modular, with plugins available that handle L2 and L3 networking for various hardware vendors and standards.

Requirements

Chef 11.4.4 or higher required (for Chef environment use)

Cookbooks

The following cookbooks are dependencies:

  • identity
  • openstack-common >= 8.0.0

Recipes

client

  • Install the network client packages

server

Testing

Please refer to the TESTING.md for instructions for testing the cookbook.

Berkshelf

Berks will resolve version requirements and dependencies on first run and store these in Berksfile.lock. If new cookbooks become available you can run berks update to update the references in Berksfile.lock. Berksfile.lock will be included in stable branches to provide a known good set of dependencies. Berksfile.lock will not be included in development branches to encourage development against the latest cookbooks.
