Bug Description

In install-guide.html "Configure Neutron to communicate with the Bare Metal Server" section, for the configuration as below:

[ovs]
network_vlan_ranges = physnet1
bridge_mappings = physnet1:br-eth2

We can not assume it should be configured in /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini, depends on the which config-file used for neutron-openvswitch-agent process, some time it is not /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini but /etc/neutron/plugins/openvswitch/ovs_neutron_plugin.ini.

So if neutron-openvswitch-agent run with ovs_neutron_plugin.ini as the input config-file, we have to edit ovs_neutron_plugin.ini. to add the [ovs] section to enable the bridge mappings configuration.

And, the network_vlan_ranges options is not required for neutron flat network, the line can be removed from the guide.
