+Scenarios are implemented as deployable compositions through integration with an installation tool.
+OPNFV supports multiple installation tools and for any given release not all tools will support all
+scenarios. While our target is to establish parity across the installation tools to ensure they
+can provide all scenarios, the practical challenge of achieving that goal for any given feature and
+release results in some disparity.
+
+Colorado scenario overeview
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The following table provides an overview of the installation tools and available scenario's
+in the Colorado release of OPNFV.
+
+Scenario status is indicated by a weather pattern icon. All scenarios listed with
+a weather pattern are possible to deploy and run in your environment or a Pharos lab,
+however they may have known limitations or issues as indicated by the icon.
+
+Weather pattern icon legend:

+
+Scenarios that are not yet in a state of "Stable, no known issues" will continue to be stabilised
+and updates will be made on the stable/colorado branch. While we intend that all Colorado
+scenarios should be stable it is worth checking regularly to see the current status.  Due to
+our dependency on upstream communities and code some issues may not be resolved prior to the D release.
+
+Scenario Naming
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+In OPNFV scenarios are identified by short scenario names, these names follow a scheme that
+identifies the key components and behaviours of the scenario. The rules for scenario naming are as follows:
+
+  os-[controller]-[feature]-[mode]-[option]
+
+Details of the fields are
+  * os: mandatory
+
+    * Refers to the platform type used
+    * possible value: os (OpenStack)
+
+* [controller]: mandatory
+
+    * Refers to the SDN controller integrated in the platform
+    * example values: nosdn, ocl, odl, onos
+
+  * [feature]: mandatory
+
+    * Refers to the feature projects supported by the scenario
+    * example values: nofeature, kvm, ovs, sfc
+
+  * [mode]: mandatory
+
+    * Refers to the deployment type, which may include for instance high availability
+    * possible values: ha, noha
+
+  * [option]: optional
+
+    * Used for the scenarios those do not fit into naming scheme.
+    * The optional field in the short scenario name should not be included if there is no optional scenario.
+
+Some examples of supported scenario names are:
+
+  * os-nosdn-kvm-noha
+
+    * This is an OpenStack based deployment using neutron including the OPNFV enhanced KVM hypervisor
+
+  * os-onos-nofeature-ha
+
+    * This is an OpenStack deployment in high availability mode including ONOS as the SDN controller
+
+  * os-odl_l2-sfc
+
+    * This is an OpenStack deployment using OpenDaylight and OVS enabled with SFC features
+
+Installing your scenario
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+There are two main methods of deploying your target scenario, one method is to follow this guide which will
+walk you through the process of deploying to your hardware using scripts or ISO images, the other method is
+to set up a Jenkins slave and connect your infrastructure to the OPNFV Jenkins master.
+
+For the purposes of evaluation and development a number of Colorado scenarios are able to be deployed
+virtually to mitigate the requirements on physical infrastructure. Details and instructions on performing
+virtual deployments can be found in the installer specific installation instructions.
+
+To set up a Jenkins slave for automated deployment to your lab, refer to the `Jenkins slave connect guide.
