Plug-in architecture in OpenStack Cloud Administrator Guide - current - Indicate core_plugin variable

[Marco CONSONNI]

Section "Plug-in Architecture" describes quite well the Neutron plug-in architecture but it doesn't explicitly indicate how to select the plug-in. Actually this is indicated in the subsequent sections but IMHO it could be useful to introduce the concept here with some general but clear sentence like:

"The plug-in is defined setting core_plugin variable in /etc/neutron/neutron.conf".

This is not a bug, anyway:

What is a real bug is that section ML2 does not specify that you need to set core_plugin = neutron.plugins.ml2.plugin.Ml2Plugin.
