Prerequisites
=============
The OPNFV deployment is out of the scope of this document but it can be

+found in https://docs.opnfv.org/en/stable-hunter/.
The OPNFV platform is considered as the SUT in this document.
Several prerequisites are needed for Functest:
#. A public/external network created on the SUT
#. An admin/management network created on the SUT
#. Connectivity from the Jumphost to the SUT public/external network
- #. Connectivity from the Jumphost to the SUT admin/management network
WARNING: Connectivity from Jumphost is essential and it is of paramount
importance to make sure it is working before even considering to install
NOTE: **Jumphost** refers to any server which meets the previous
requirements. Normally it is the same server from where the OPNFV
-deployment has been triggered previously.

NOTE: If your Jumphost is operating behind a company http proxy and/or
-firewall, please consult first the section `Proxy Support`_, towards

*may* be of help in a proxified environment.
*Tip:* For running docker containers behind the proxy, you need first
some extra configuration which is described in section
-`Docker Installation on CentOS behind http proxy`_. You should follow
-that section before installing the docker engine.

*Hint:* For the given OPNFV Installer in use, the IP sub-net address

-Connectivity to Admin/Management network on SUT
------------------------------------------------
-Some of the Functest tools need to have access to the OpenStack
-admin/management network of the controllers `[1]`_.
-
-For this reason, check the connectivity from the Jumphost to all the
-controllers in cluster in the OpenStack admin/management network range.
