 Hello Alexandre,

 thank you very much for your time. I have a rough guide of what I did 
 in order to have it working in case you need it to update the docs so 
 please let me know if I can be of any assistance.

 By the way could you please check the following thread and let me know 
 if you have any idea?

 http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack/2017-March/018972.html


 All the best,

 G.
