Re: Using Quantum in OpenStack setup

 

Quantum is optional component of the OpenStack. You you can use it or
nova-network instead. Folsom release doesn't require Quantum. You should
use it if nova-network features are not enough for you or you want to use
some Quantum plugin for Open vSwitch or plugin supported hardware
