Matt Kassawara 03cff88d61 Updated networking content
I updated the networking content as follows:

1) Reordered example architectures to place the 3-node neutron
   architecture before the 2-node nova-network architecture which
   agrees with the order presented in other portions of the
   installation guide.
2) Changed network service naming to agree with conventions.
3) Permanently unlinked the Open vSwitch (OVS) plug-in sections from
   the Networking chapter. However, I will refrain from deleting
   the associated files in case we need to restore them.
4) Temporarily unlinked the Open vSwitch (OVS) portion of the Neutron
   concepts section until we can update it to reflect the Modular
   Layer 2 (ML2) plug-in.
5) Addressed other minor issues.

<title>Basic environment configuration</title>
<para>This chapter explains how to configure each node in the
<link linkend="architecture_example-architectures">example architectures</link>
including the <link linkend="example-architecture-with-legacy-networking">
two-node architecture with legacy networking</link> and
<link linkend="example-architecture-with-neutron-networking">three-node
architecture with OpenStack Networking (neutron)</link>.</para>
<note>
<para>Although most environments include OpenStack Identity, Image Service,
Compute, at least one networking service, and the dashboard, OpenStack
Object Storage can operate independently of most other services. If your
use case only involves Object Storage, you can skip to
<xref linkend="object-storage-system-requirements"/>. However, the
dashboard will not work without at least OpenStack Image Service and
Compute.</para>

<note>
<para>You must use an account with administrative privileges to configure
each node. Either run the commands as the <literal>root</literal> user
or configure the <literal>sudo</literal> utility.</para>
