Constraints of a Pharos compliant OPNFV test-bed environment
-------------------------------------------------------------
-- One jump (provisioning server) in which the installer runs in a VM
-- 2 - 5 compute / controller nodes
-- Jump server provisioned with CentOS7
-- Installer (e.g. Foreman) runs its own DHCP server therefore management network should not have DHCP server
+- One CentOS 7 Jump Server on which the virtualized Openstack/OPNFV installer runs
+- Desired installer - may be Fuel, Foreman, Juju, etc
+- 2 - 5 compute / controller nodes (`BGS <https://wiki.opnfv.org/get_started/get_started_work_environment>`_ requires 5 nodes)
+- Network topology allowing for LOM, Admin, Public, Private, and Storage Networks
- Remote access
-- A lights-out network is required for remote management and bare metal provisioning capability
