<title>Create initial network</title>
<para>Before launching your first instance, you must create the necessary
virtual network infrastructure to which the instance will connect.
This network typically provides Internet access
<emphasis>from</emphasis> instances. You can enable Internet access
<emphasis>to</emphasis> individual instances using a
<glossterm>floating IP address</glossterm> and suitable
<glossterm>security group</glossterm> rules. The <literal>admin</literal>
tenant owns this network because it provides external network access
for multiple tenants.</para>
<para>This network shares the same <glossterm>subnet</glossterm>
associated with the physical network connected to the external
<glossterm>interface</glossterm> on the compute node. You should specify
an exclusive slice of this subnet to prevent interference with other
devices on the external network.</para>
<note>
<para>Perform these commands on the controller node.</para>
