Chapter 2. Installing OpenStack Using RDO
In the previous chapter, we looked at the various components that make up Neutron and looked at the networking technologies that Neutron supports. Now, we will install OpenStack in a virtual machine and take a closer look at creating and managing network resources. In this chapter, we'll walk through a deployment of OpenStack called RPM Distribution of OpenStack (RDO) using Packstack. RDO is an OpenStack distribution packaged by the open source community for users running Linux distributions based on Red Hat, such as Fedora, CentOS, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. RDO is a great alternative to a DevStack deployment, especially for demonstration purposes.
