Andreas Jaeger 2d44b2b36d Prepare for Sphinx 1.5
The new sphinx version introduces some changes that break build:

* Warns if code cannot be parsed for highlighting. Fix the code so
  that it can be parsed, this includes uncommenting "..." lines.
  Note that not every config file is an ini-file.
  Also, the parser seems to have bugs and cannot parse all files.
  Fix mysql ini file and enable the parameter, see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/innodb-parameters.html#sysvar_innodb_file_per_table
* :option: works only with declared options, replace useage with
  simple ``.

This change only handles a few files, more to come later.

Networking Option 1: Provider networks

Configure the Networking components on a compute node.

Configure the Linux bridge agent

The Linux bridge agent builds layer-2 (bridging and switching) virtual networking infrastructure for instances and handles security groups.

  • Edit the /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/linuxbridge_agent.ini file and complete the following actions:
    • In the [linux_bridge] section, map the provider virtual network to the provider physical network interface:

      [linux_bridge]
      physical_interface_mappings = provider:PROVIDER_INTERFACE_NAME

      Replace PROVIDER_INTERFACE_NAME with the name of the underlying provider physical network interface. See environment-networking for more information.

    • In the [vxlan] section, disable VXLAN overlay networks:

      [vxlan]
      enable_vxlan = False
    • In the [securitygroup] section, enable security groups and configure the Linux bridge iptables firewall driver:

      [securitygroup]
      # ...
      enable_security_group = True
      firewall_driver = neutron.agent.linux.iptables_firewall.IptablesFirewallDriver
