Bug Description

When working on constricted network environments, the kind you might find in enterprise businesses you may not be able to add a different ppa and install cassandra packages.

I was working on the IBM power lab and found that the cassandra charm failed to download from the keyserver.

According to our Charm Best Practices document: https://juju.ubuntu.com/docs/authors-charm-best-practice.html

Some organizations use proxies, do not assume that every port is available, consider using common ports like 80/443 to ensure your charm can run in as many environments as possible. For added flexibility we recommend exposing port configuration in the charm as a config option.

Making this work in a closed network environment and for a more recent version of Cassandra, 2.0.7 requires:

(1) Looking locally for the assets
(2) Updating config to work with 2.0.7.

-thanks,
Antonio
