+ONAP HEAT Template for vanilla OpenStack
+---
+
+The HEAT template for vanilla OpenStack is similar to the HEAT template for Rackspace. The main difference is the way in which some VMs resource-intensive VMs are defined. Unlike OpenStack, in fact, Rackspace requires to explicitly define a local disk for memory- or CPU-intensive VMs.
+
+The HEAT template for vanilla OpenStack tries to replicate typical application deployments in OpenStack. VMs have a private IP address in the ONAP Private Management Network space. Unlike the Rackspace deployment, they use floating IP addresses. Currently, floating IPs are automatically assigned by OpenStack. A router is also created that connects the ONAP Private Management Network to the external network.
+
+In addition to the parameters described in the previous section, the HEAT template for vanilla OpenStack uses the following parameters to define the image name and flavor of a VM:
+
+ ubuntu_1404_image: PUT THE UBUNTU 14.04 IMAGE NAME HERE
+ ubuntu_1604_image: PUT THE UBUNTU 16.04 IMAGE NAME HERE
+ flavor_small: PUT THE SMALL FLAVOR NAME HERE
+ flavor_medium: PUT THE MEDIUM FLAVOR NAME HERE
+ flavor_large: PUT THE LARGE FLAVOR NAME HERE
+ flavor_xlarge: PUT THE XLARGE FLAVOR NAME HERE
+
+Parameters for network configuration are also used:
+
+ external_dns
+ oam_network_cidr
+ aai_ip_addr
+ appc_ip_addr
+ ...
+ vid_ip_addr
+
+These parameters are used to configure the ONAP internal DNS VM. The external_dns parameter is a comma-separated list of IP addresses (they can be obtained from /etc/resolv.conf in many UNIX-based Operating Systems). The IP address of the ONAP VMs must comply with the oam_network_cidr parameter, and viceversa. Except for external_dns, the other network parameters are already set. They should work for many deployments.
