 Configuring Vif-plugging in Nova

When nova-compute creates a VM, it must "plug" each of the VM's vNICs into a Quantum controlled virtual switch, and inform the virtual switch about the Quantum port-id associated with each vNIC. This is done by specifying a field in the nova.conf of the nova-compute instance indicating what type of ''vif-plugging'' should be used. The exact field(s) you need to set depend on your plugin. For plugins not listed below, see the plugin's own documentation.
