+## Overview
+
+Puppet module that installs and configures [FD.io][1] projects VPP and Honeycomb Agent.
+
+## Module Description
+
+Deploys FD.io projects to various OSs via package.
+
+All configuration should be handled through the Puppet module's [params](#parameters).
+
+## Setup
+
+### What `fdio` affects
+
+* [VPP][2], a packet processing platform.
+* [Honeycomb][3], a management agent for VPP.
+
+## Usage
+
+The most basic usage, passing no parameters to the fdio class, will install and start VPP with a default configuration.
+
+```puppet
+class { 'fdio':
+}
+```
+
+### Set uio-driver
+
+To set the uio-driver use the `vpp_dpdk_uio_driver` param.
+
+```puppet
+class { 'fdio':
+ vpp_dpdk_devs => ['0000:00:07.0'],
+ vpp_dpdk_uio_driver => 'vfio_pci',
+}
+```
+
+## Reference
+
+### Classes
+
+#### Public classes
+
+* `::fdio`: Main entry point to the module.
+* `::fdio::honeycomb`: Class to install and configure Honeycomb agent.
+
+#### Private classes
+
+* `::fdio::params`: Contains default class param values.
+* `::fdio::install`: Installs VPP from packages.
+* `::fdio::config`: Manages VPP startup config
+* `::fdio::service`: Shuts down and disables kernel interfaces, starts VPP service and configuring VPP interfaces
+
+
