-Installing vswitchperf
-======================
-
-The test suite requires Python 3.3 and relies on a number of other
-packages. These need to be installed for the test suite to function.
-
-Installation of required packages, preparation of Python 3 virtual
-environment and compilation of OVS, DPDK and QEMU is performed by
-script **systems/build_base_machine.sh**. It should be executed under
-user account, which will be used for vsperf execution.
-
-Please Note: Password-less sudo access must be configured for given
-user account before script is executed.
-
-Execution of installation script:
-
-.. code:: bash
-
- $ cd systems
- $ ./build_base_machine.sh
-
-Please note: you don't need to go into any of the systems subdirectories,
-simply run the top level **build_base_machine.sh**, your OS will be detected
-automatically.
-
-Currently supported operating systems are:
-
- - CentOS 7
- - Fedora 20
- - Fedora 21
- - Fedora 22
- - Ubuntu 14.04
-
-Script **build_base_machine.sh** will install all the vsperf dependencies
-in terms of system packages, Python 3.x and required Python modules.
-In case of CentOS 7 it will install Python 3.3 from an additional repository
-provided by Software Collections (`a link`_). Installation script will also
-use `virtualenv`_ to create a vsperf virtual environment, which is isolated
-from the default Python environment. This environment will reside
-in a directory called **vsperfenv** in $HOME.
-
-You will need to activate the virtual environment every time you start a
-new shell session. Its activation is specific to your OS:
-
-CentOS 7:
-
-.. code:: bash
-
- $ scl enable python33 bash
- $ cd $HOME/vsperfenv
- $ source bin/activate
-
-Fedora and Ubuntu:
-
-.. code:: bash
-
- $ cd $HOME/vsperfenv
- $ source bin/activate
-

-Working Behind a Proxy
-======================
-
-If you're behind a proxy, you'll likely want to configure this before
-running any of the above. For example:
-
- .. code:: bash
-
- export http_proxy=proxy.mycompany.com:123
- export https_proxy=proxy.mycompany.com:123
