+========================================================
+Setup in OpenStack and Open Daylight L2-Only Environment
+========================================================
+
+If you intend to set up a service VM as an IPv6 vRouter in an environment of OpenStack
+and Open Daylight L2-only of OPNFV Brahmaputra Release base platform, the instructions
+are as follows.
+
+Please **NOTE** that:
+
+* The hostnames, IP addresses, and username are for exemplary purpose in instructions.
+ Please change as needed to fit your environment.
+* The instructions apply to both deployment model of single controller node and
+ HA (High Availability) deployment model where multiple controller nodes are used.
+* However, in case of HA, when ``ipv6-router`` is created in step **SETUP-SVM-11**,
+ it could be created in any of the controller node. Thus you need to identify in which
+ controller node ``ipv6-router`` is created in order to manually spawn ``radvd`` daemon
+ inside the ``ipv6-router`` namespace in steps **SETUP-SVM-24** through **SETUP-SVM-30**.
+
+*****************************
+Install OPNFV and Preparation
+*****************************
+
+**OPNFV-INSTALL-1**: To install pure OpenStack option of OPNFV Brahmaputra Release:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ deploy --scenario os_odl-l2_ha
+
+**OPNFV-INSTALL-2**: Clone the following GitHub repository to get the
+configuration and metadata files
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ git clone https://github.com/sridhargaddam/opnfv_os_ipv6_poc.git /opt/stack/opnfv_os_ipv6_poc
+
+***************************************************
+Source the Credentials in OpenStack Controller Node
+***************************************************
+
+**SETUP-SVM-1**: Login in OpenStack Controller Node. Start a new terminal,
+and change directory to where OpenStack is installed.

+
+**************************************
+Add External Connectivity to ``br-ex``
+**************************************
+
+In OpenStack Controller Node, ``eth1`` is configured to provide external/public connectivity
+for both IPv4 and IPv6 (optional). So let us add this interface to ``br-ex`` and move the IP address, including the
+default route from ``eth1`` to ``br-ex``.
+
+**SETUP-SVM-3**: Add ``eth1`` to ``br-ex`` and move the IP address and the default route from ``eth1`` to ``br-ex``
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ sudo ip addr del 198.59.156.113/24 dev eth1
+ sudo ovs-vsctl add-port br-ex eth1
+ sudo ifconfig eth1 up
+ sudo ip addr add 198.59.156.113/24 dev br-ex

+Please note that:
+
+* The IP address ``198.59.156.113`` and related subnet and gateway addressed in the command
+ below are for exemplary purpose. **Please replace them with the IP addresses of your actual network**.
+* **This can be automated in /etc/network/interfaces**.
+
+**SETUP-SVM-4**: Verify that ``br-ex`` now has the original external IP address, and that the default route is on
+``br-ex``

+*******************************************
+Boot Two Other VMs in ``ipv4-int-network1``
+*******************************************
+
+In order to verify that the setup is working, let us create two cirros VMs with ``eth1`` interface on the
+``ipv4-int-network1``, i.e., connecting to ``vRouter`` ``eth1`` interface for internal network.
+
+We will have to configure appropriate ``mtu`` on the VMs' interface by taking into account the tunneling
+overhead and any physical switch requirements. If so, push the ``mtu`` to the VM either using ``dhcp``
+options or via ``meta-data``.
+
+**SETUP-SVM-21**: Create VM1 on OpenStack Controller Node with hostname ``opnfv-os-controller``
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nova boot --image cirros-0.3.4-x86_64-uec --flavor m1.tiny --nic port-id=$(neutron port-list | grep -w eth0-VM1 | awk '{print $2}') --availability-zone nova:opnfv-os-controller --key-name vRouterKey --user-data /opt/stack/opnfv_os_ipv6_poc/set_mtu.sh VM1
+
+**SETUP-SVM-22**: Create VM2 on OpenStack Compute Node with hostname ``opnfv-os-compute``
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nova boot --image cirros-0.3.4-x86_64-uec --flavor m1.tiny --nic port-id=$(neutron port-list | grep -w eth0-VM2 | awk '{print $2}') --availability-zone nova:opnfv-os-compute --key-name vRouterKey --user-data /opt/stack/opnfv_os_ipv6_poc/set_mtu.sh VM2
+
+**SETUP-SVM-23**: Confirm that both the VMs are successfully booted.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ nova list
+ nova console-log VM1
+ nova console-log VM2
+
+**********************************
+Spawn ``RADVD`` in ``ipv6-router``
+**********************************
+
+Let us manually spawn a ``radvd`` daemon inside ``ipv6-router`` namespace to simulate an external router.
+First of all, we will have to identify the ``ipv6-router`` namespace and move to the namespace.
+
+Please **NOTE** that in case of HA (High Availability) deployment model where multiple controller
+nodes are used, ``ipv6-router`` created in step **SETUP-SVM-11** could be in any of the controller
+node. Thus you need to identify in which controller node ``ipv6-router`` is created in order to manually
+spawn ``radvd`` daemon inside the ``ipv6-router`` namespace in steps **SETUP-SVM-24** through
+**SETUP-SVM-30**. The following command in Neutron will display the controller on which the
+``ipv6-router`` is spawned.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ neutron l3-agent-list-hosting-router ipv6-router
+
+Then you login to that controller and execute steps **SETUP-SVM-24**
+through **SETUP-SVM-30**
+
+**SETUP-SVM-24**: identify the ``ipv6-router`` namespace and move to the namespace
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ sudo ip netns exec qrouter-$(neutron router-list | grep -w ipv6-router | awk '{print $2}') bash
+
+**SETUP-SVM-25**: Upon successful execution of the above command, you will be in the router namespace.
+Now let us configure the IPv6 address on the <qr-xxx> interface.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ export router_interface=$(ip a s | grep -w "global qr-*" | awk '{print $7}')
+ ip -6 addr add 2001:db8:0:1::1 dev $router_interface
+
+**SETUP-SVM-26**: Update the sample file ``/opt/stack/opnfv_os_ipv6_poc/scenario2/radvd.conf``
+with ``$router_interface``.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ cp /opt/stack/opnfv_os_ipv6_poc/scenario2/radvd.conf /tmp/radvd.$router_interface.conf
+ sed -i 's/$router_interface/'$router_interface'/g' /tmp/radvd.$router_interface.conf
+
+**SETUP-SVM-27**: Spawn a ``radvd`` daemon to simulate an external router. This ``radvd`` daemon advertises an IPv6
+subnet prefix of ``2001:db8:0:1::/64`` using RA (Router Advertisement) on its $router_interface so that ``eth0``
+interface of ``vRouter`` automatically configures an IPv6 SLAAC address.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $radvd -C /tmp/radvd.$router_interface.conf -p /tmp/br-ex.pid.radvd -m syslog
+
+**SETUP-SVM-28**: Add an IPv6 downstream route pointing to the ``eth0`` interface of vRouter.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ip -6 route add 2001:db8:0:2::/64 via 2001:db8:0:1:f816:3eff:fe11:1111
+
+**SETUP-SVM-29**: The routing table should now look similar to something shown below.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ip -6 route show
+ 2001:db8:0:1::1 dev qr-42968b9e-62 proto kernel metric 256
+ 2001:db8:0:1::/64 dev qr-42968b9e-62 proto kernel metric 256 expires 86384sec
+ 2001:db8:0:2::/64 via 2001:db8:0:1:f816:3eff:fe11:1111 dev qr-42968b9e-62 proto ra metric 1024 expires 29sec
+ fe80::/64 dev qg-3736e0c7-7c proto kernel metric 256
+ fe80::/64 dev qr-42968b9e-62 proto kernel metric 256
+
+**SETUP-SVM-30**: If all goes well, the IPv6 addresses assigned to the VMs would be as shown as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ vRouter eth0 interface would have the following IPv6 address: 2001:db8:0:1:f816:3eff:fe11:1111/64
+ vRouter eth1 interface would have the following IPv6 address: 2001:db8:0:2::1/64
+ VM1 would have the following IPv6 address: 2001:db8:0:2:f816:3eff:fe33:3333/64
+ VM2 would have the following IPv6 address: 2001:db8:0:2:f816:3eff:fe44:4444/64
+
+********************************
+Testing to Verify Setup Complete
+********************************
+
+Now, let us ``ssh`` to one of the VMs, e.g. VM1, to confirm that it has successfully configured the IPv6 address
+using ``SLAAC`` with prefix ``2001:db8:0:2::/64`` from ``vRouter``.
+
+Please note that you need to get the IPv4 address associated to VM1. This can be inferred from ``nova list`` command.
+
+**SETUP-SVM-31**: ``ssh`` VM1
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ssh -i /home/odl/vRouterKey cirros@<VM1-IPv4-address>
+
+If everything goes well, ``ssh`` will be successful and you will be logged into VM1. Run some commands to verify
+that IPv6 addresses are configured on ``eth0`` interface.
+
+**SETUP-SVM-32**: Show an IPv6 address with a prefix of ``2001:db8:0:2::/64``
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ip address show
+
+**SETUP-SVM-33**: ping some external IPv6 address, e.g. ``ipv6-router``
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ping6 2001:db8:0:1::1
+
+If the above ping6 command succeeds, it implies that ``vRouter`` was able to successfully forward the IPv6 traffic
+to reach external ``ipv6-router``.
+
+**SETUP-SVM-34**: When all tests show that the setup works as expected, You can now exit the ``ipv6-router`` namespace.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ exit
+
+**********
+Next Steps

+
+Congratulations, you have completed the setup of using a service VM to act as an IPv6 vRouter. This setup allows further
+open innovation by any 3rd-party. Please refer to relevant sections in User's Guide for further value-added services on
+this IPv6 vRouter.
