+Introduction
+============
+
+This document describes providing guidelines on how to install and
+configure the Brahmaputra release of OPNFV when using Compass as a
+deployment tool including required software and hardware
+configurations.
+
+Installation and configuration of host OS, OpenStack, OpenDaylight,
+ONOS, Ceph etc. can be supported by Compass on VMs or Bare Metal
+nodes.
+
+The audience of this document is assumed to have good knowledge in
+networking and Unix/Linux administration.
+
+Preface
+=======
+
+Before starting the installation of the Brahmaputra release of OPNFV
+when using Compass4nfv as a deployment tool, some planning must be done.
+
+
+Retrieving the installation ISO image
+-------------------------------------
+
+First of all, The installation ISO is needed for deploying your OPNFV
+environment, it included packages of Compass,OpenStack,OpenDaylight,ONOS
+and so on. the iso can be retrieved via OPNFV artifacts repository:
+
+http://artifacts.opnfv.org/
+
+NOTE: Search the keyword "Compass4nfv/Brahmaputra" to locate the ISO image.
+
+E.g.
+compass4nfv/brahmaputra/opnfv-2016-01-16_15-03-18.iso
+compass4nfv/brahmaputra/opnfv-2016-01-16_15-03-18.properties
+
+The name of iso image includes the time of iso building.
+The git url and sha1 of Compass4nfv are recorded in properties files,
+According these, the corresponding deployment scripts can be retrieved.
+
+
+Getting the deployment scripts
+------------------------------
+
+To retrieve the repository of Compass4nfv on Jumphost use the following command:
+
+- git clone https://gerrit.opnfv.org/gerrit/compass4nfv
+
+NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT GIT CLONE COMPASS4NFV IN root DIRECTORY.
+
+If you don't have a Linux foundation user id, get your own by the url:
+
+https://wiki.opnfv.org/developer/getting_started
+
+Set the branch to the corresponding deployment scripts:
+
+E.g.
+Git sha1 in file "opnfv-2016-01-16_15-03-18.properties" is
+d5a13ce7cc2ce89946d34b0402ecf33c1d291851
+
+- git checkout d5a13ce7cc2ce89946d34b0402ecf33c1d291851
+
+
+Preparing the installation environment
+--------------------------------------
+
+If you have only 1 Bare Metal server, Virtual deployment is recommended. if more
+than or equal 3 servers, the Bare Metal deployment is recommended. The minimum of Bare Metal
+deployment server is 3, 1 for JumpServer(Jumphost), 1 for controller, 1 for computer.
+
+
+Setup Requirements
+==================
+
+Jumphost Requirements
+---------------------
+
+The Jumphost requirements are outlined below:
+
+1.     Ubuntu 14.04 (Pre-installed).
+
+2.     Root access.
+
+3.     libvirt virtualization support.
+
+4.     Minimum 2 NICs.
+
+       -  PXE installation Network (Receiving PXE request from nodes and providing OS provisioning)
+
+       -  IPMI Network (Nodes power control and set boot PXE first via IPMI interface)
+
+       -  External Network (Optional: Internet access)
+
+5.     16 GB of RAM for a Bare Metal deployment, 64 GB of RAM for a VM deployment.
+
+6.     Minimum 100G storage.
+
+Bare Metal Node Requirements
+----------------------------
+
+Bare Metal nodes require:
+
+1.     IPMI enabled on OOB interface for power control.
+
+2.     BIOS boot priority should be PXE first then local hard disk.
+
+3.     Minimum 3 NICs.
+
+       -  PXE installation Network (Broadcasting PXE request)
+
+       -  IPMI Network (Receiving IPMI command from Jumphost)
+
+       -  External Network (OpenStack mgmt/external/storage/tenant network)
+
+Network Requirements
+--------------------
+
+Network requirements include:
+
+1.     No DHCP or TFTP server running on networks used by OPNFV.
+
+2.     2-6 separate networks with connectivity between Jumphost and nodes.
+
+       -  PXE installation Network
+
+       -  IPMI Network
+
+       -  Openstack mgmt Network*
+
+       -  Openstack external Network*
+
+       -  Openstack tenant Network*
+
+       -  Openstack storage Network*
+
+3.     Lights out OOB network access from Jumphost with IPMI node enabled (Bare Metal deployment only).
+
+4.     External network has Internet access, meaning a gateway and DNS availability.
+
+**The networks with(*) can be share one NIC(Default configuration) or use an exclusive**
+**NIC(Reconfigurated in network.yml).**
+
+Execution Requirements (Bare Metal Only)
+----------------------------------------
+
+In order to execute a deployment, one must gather the following information:
+
+1.     IPMI IP addresses for the nodes.
+
+2.     IPMI login information for the nodes (user/pass).
+
+3.     MAC address of Control Plane / Provisioning interfaces of the Bare Metal nodes.
+
+
+Installation Guide (BM Deployment)
+==================================
+
+Nodes Configuration
+-------------------
+
+The bellow file is the inventory template of deployment nodes:
+
+"compass4nfv/deploy/conf/hardware_environment/huawei_us_lab/pod1/dha.yml"
+
+You can write your own IPMI IP/User/Password/Mac address/roles reference to it.
+
+        - ipmiVer -- IPMI interface version for deployment node support. IPMI 1.0
+          or IPMI 2.0 is available.
+
+        - ipmiIP -- IPMI IP address for deployment node. Make sure it can access
+          from Jumphost.
+
+        - ipmiUser -- IPMI Username for deployment node.
+
+        - ipmiPass -- IPMI Password for deployment node.
+
+        - mac -- MAC Address of deployment node PXE NIC .
+
+        - name -- Host name for deployment node after installation.
+
+        - roles -- Components deployed.
+
+E.g. Openstack only deployment roles setting
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    hosts:
+      - name: host1
+        roles:
+          - controller
+          - ha
+
+      - name: host2
+        roles:
+          - compute
+
+NOTE:
+IF YOU SELECT MUTIPLE NODES AS CONTROLLER, THE 'ha' role MUST BE SELECT, TOO.
+
+E.g. Openstack and ceph deployment roles setting
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    hosts:
+      - name: host1
+        roles:
+          - controller
+          - ha
+          - ceph-admin
+          - ceph-mon
+
+      - name: host2
+        roles:
+          - compute
+          - ceph-osd
+
+E.g. Openstack and ODL deployment roles setting
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    hosts:
+      - name: host1
+        roles:
+          - controller
+          - ha
+          - odl
+
+      - name: host2
+        roles:
+          - compute
+
+E.g. Openstack and ONOS deployment roles setting
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    hosts:
+      - name: host1
+        roles:
+          - controller
+          - ha
+          - onos
+
+      - name: host2
+        roles:
+          - compute
+
+
+Network Configuration
+---------------------
+
+Before deployment, there are some network configuration to be checked based on your network topology.
+Compass4nfv network default configuration file is "compass4nfv/deploy/conf/network_cfg.yaml".
+You can write your own reference to it.
+
+Start Deployment
+----------------
+
+1. Set PXE/Installation NIC for Jumphost. (set eth1 E.g.)
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    export INSTALL_NIC=eth1
+
+2. Set OS version for nodes provisioning. (set Ubuntu14.04 E.g.)
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    export OS_VERSION=trusty
+
+3. Set OpenStack version for deployment nodes. (set liberty E.g.)
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    export OPENSTACK_VERSION=liberty
+
+4. Set ISO image that you want to deploy
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    export ISO_URL=file:///${YOUR_OWN}/compass.iso
+    or
+    export ISO_URL=http://artifacts.opnfv.org/compass4nfv/brahmaputra/opnfv-release.iso
+
+5. Run ``deploy.sh`` with inventory and network configuration
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    ./deploy.sh --dha ${YOUR_OWN}/dha.yml --network ${YOUR_OWN}/network.yml
+
