As part of the installation guide improvement project, I performed the following operations on the basic environment configuration chapter of the installation guide: 1) Split large ch_basics.xml file into smaller files to ease addition of new networking content and future updates. 2) Added information on how to install on VMs. 3) Added recommended minimum hardware requirements for each node. 4) Built detailed instructions for network configuration on three-node neutron and two-node nova example architectures including verification of connectivity using name resolution. 5) Clarified phrasing and wording. 6) Updated glossary as necessary. This patch primarily updates networking content in this chapter. Change-Id: Ib31a99448757d36ae29ff8069ddbeab8fe0106bd Partial-Bug: #1291071 Implements: blueprint networking-install-guide-improvements

including the <link linkend="example-architecture-with-legacy-networking">

<para>Although most environments include OpenStack Identity, Image Service,
|
|
Compute, at least one networking service, and the dashboard, OpenStack
|
|
Object Storage can operate independently of most other services. If your
|
|
use case only involves Object Storage, you can skip to
|
|
<xref linkend="object-storage-system-requirements"/>. However, the
|
|
dashboard will not work without at least OpenStack Image Service and
|
|
Compute.</para>

each node. Either run the commands as the <literal>root</literal> user
