Bug Description

Step 5 is "Configure the plug-in you chose when you set up the network node. Follow the instructions and return here."

However, the top of the document states "This is for a node which runs the control components of Neutron, but does not run any of the components that provide the underlying functionality (such as the plug-in agent or the L3 agent). If you wish to have a combined controller/compute node follow these instructions, and then those for the compute node."

Furthermore, the OVS plug-in document states "The dedicated controller node does not need to run Open vSwitch or the Open vSwitch agent.".

This is quite confusing on whether OVS and its agent are required.

    Added clarity for installing Neutron plugin on dedicated controller

    As reported to Launchpad, the instructions for setting up the Neutron
    server on a dedicated controller that will NOT be providing any
    underlying functionality are not clear as to why we need to install
    and configure the plugin here.
