Footnotes
| [1] | The X509 certificate service (openstack-nova-cert/nova-cert) is only required by the EC2 API to the Compute service. |
| [2] | The nova network service (openstack-nova-network/ nova-network) only runs in deployments that are not configured to use the Networking service (neutron). |
