Arnaud Morin 30c0e5699e Fix doc links for networking option 2
Wrong links were introduced long time ago, this is setting the good
links.

Networking Option 2: Self-service networks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Configure the Networking components on a *compute* node.
Configure the Open vSwitch agent
--------------------------------
The Open vSwitch agent builds layer-2 (bridging and switching) virtual
networking infrastructure for instances and handles security groups.
* Edit the ``/etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/openvswitch_agent.ini`` file and
complete the following actions:
* In the ``[ovs]`` section, map the provider virtual network to the
provider physical network interface:
.. path /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/openvswitch_agent.ini
.. code-block:: ini
[ovs]
bridge_mappings = provider:PROVIDER_INTERFACE_NAME
.. end
Replace ``PROVIDER_INTERFACE_NAME`` with the name of the underlying
provider physical network interface.
See :doc:`environment-networking-ubuntu` for more information.
* In the ``[vxlan]`` section, configure the IP address of the physical
network interface that handles overlay networks and enable layer-2
population:
.. path /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/openvswitch_agent.ini
.. code-block:: ini
[vxlan]
local_ip = OVERLAY_INTERFACE_IP_ADDRESS
l2_population = true
.. end
Replace ``OVERLAY_INTERFACE_IP_ADDRESS`` with the IP address of the
underlying physical network interface that handles overlay networks. The
example architecture uses the management interface to tunnel traffic to
the other nodes. Therefore, replace ``OVERLAY_INTERFACE_IP_ADDRESS`` with
the management IP address of the compute node. See
:doc:`environment-networking-obs` for more information.
* In the ``[securitygroup]`` section, enable security groups and
configure the Open vSwitch native or the hybrid iptables firewall driver:
.. path /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/openvswitch_agent.ini
.. code-block:: ini
[securitygroup]
# ...
enable_security_group = true
firewall_driver = openvswitch
#firewall_driver = iptables_hybrid
.. end
* In the case of using the hybrid iptables firewall driver, ensure your
Linux operating system kernel supports network bridge filters by verifying
all the following ``sysctl`` values are set to ``1``:
.. code-block:: ini
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables
.. end
To enable networking bridge support, typically the ``br_netfilter`` kernel
module needs to be loaded. Check your operating system's documentation for
additional details on enabling this module.
