<para>For both conserving network resources and ensuring that
network administrators understand the needs for networks and
public IP addresses for accessing the APIs and VMs as
necessary, this section offers recommendations and required
minimum sizes. Throughput of at least 1000 Mbps is suggested.
This walkthrough shows network configurations for a single
server.</para>
<para>For OpenStack Compute, networking is configured on
multi-node installations between the physical machines on
a single subnet. For networking between virtual machine
instances, three network options are available: flat,
DHCP, and VLAN. Two NICs (Network Interface Cards) are
recommended on the server running nova-network.</para>
<para>Management Network (RFC1918 IP Range, not publicly
routable): This network is utilized for all inter-server
communications within the cloud infrastructure. Recommended
size: 255 IPs (CIDR /24)</para>
<para>Public Network (Publicly routable IP range): This network is
utilized for providing Public IP accessibility to the API
endpoints within the cloud infrastructure. Minimum size: 8 IPs
(CIDR /29)</para>
<para>VM Network (RFC1918 IP Range, not publicly routable): This
network is utilized for providing primary IP addresses to the
cloud instances. Recommended size: 1024 IPs (CIDR /22)</para>
<para>Floating IP network (Publicly routable IP Range): This
network is utilized for providing Public IP accessibility to
selected cloud instances. Minimum size: 16 IPs (CIDR
/28)</para></section>
