Who this book is for

This book is for the novice-to-intermediate OpenStack cloud administrators who are looking to build or enhance their cloud using the networking service known as Neutron. By laying down a basic installation of OpenStack, the reader should be able to follow the examples laid out in the book to receive a functional understanding of the various components of OpenStack Networking. This book is focused on the usage of OpenStack Networking services rather than its development, and it uses free and open source software rather than commercial solutions.
