1) Create image cirros-0.3.3-x86_64

• Horizon: From Project / Compute / Images, select "Create Image". Set options Name "cirros-0.3.3-x86_64", Image Location "http://download.cirros-cloud.net/0.3.3/cirros-0.3.3-x86_64-disk.img", Format "QCOW2", Architecture "x86_64", (leave other options as-is or blank), and select "Create Image".
• CLI:

2) Verify that an external network and subnet exists (subnet "192.168.1.0/24", no DHCP) in Project / Network / Networks. For base-metal single-NIC non-HA install, you may need to create the external network via the CLI, if not already created as in Bare-metal Multi-node single-NIC install using Foreman.

• Horizon: apparently no current (Juno) option to designate a new network as "external". Have to do this via the CLI
• CLI:

[root@oscontroller1 ~]# neutron net-create external1 -- --router:external=true --provider:network_type=flat --provider:physical_network=physnet1

3) Create internal network.

• Horizon: From Project / Network / Networks, select "Create Network". Set options Name "internal1", select "Next", Subnet Name "internal1", Network Address "10.0.0.1/24", select "Next" (leave other options as-is or blank), Allocation Pools "10.0.0.2,10.0.0.254", DNS Name Servers "8.8.8.8", select "Create" (leave other options as-is or blank).
• CLI:

4) Create router

• Horizon: From Project / Network / Routers, select "Create Router". Set options Name "external", Connected External Network: external1, Select "Set Gateway", select External Network "external1", and select "Set Gateway". Select elect "Add Interface" (leave other options as-is or blank).
• CLI:

5) Add internal network interface to the router.

• Horizon: From Project / Network / Routers, select router "external", and select "Add Interface". Select Subnet "internal", and select "Add Interface" (leave other options as-is or blank). Note: you may get disconnected fromt the Controller node for a short time
• CLI:

6) Launch images

• Horizon: From Project / Compute / Images, select "Launch" for image "cirros-0.3.3-x86_64". Select Name "cirros-1", network "internal", and "Launch". Leave other options as-is or blank. Repeat for instance "cirros-2".
• CLI:

7) Verify connectivity from VMs.

• Horizon: From Project / Compute / Instances, select "cirros-1" and "Console", and login with account "cirros" / "cubswin:)". Ping address of cirros-2 as shown in Horizon, 192.168.1.1 (external router), and opnfv.org (to validate DNS operation).
