Future Support
==============
Network/SSH key configuration for RedHat/Centos
===============================================
* Config drive network_info.json - Bifrost will automatically place a json structured file which is intended to replace the direct placement of a ``/etc/network/interfaces`` file. This will ultimately allow for more complex user defined networking as well as greater compatibility with other Linux distributions. At present, the diskimage-builder element ``simple-init`` can be used to facilitate this.
Bifrost places a file in the configuration drive named network_info.json that
can be read/parsed by the `glean <https://github.com/openstack-infra/glean>`
utility. This has greater compatibility for network configuration, however
any physical servers connected should be connected to switches configured such
that the network ports immediately go into a forwarding state.
In order to activate use of glean, you will want to utilize disk images
built with the diskimage-builder ``simple-init`` element.
