-Setup the fd.io Repository - Centos 7
-=====================================
-
-Update the OS
--------------
-
-Before starting the repository setup, it is a good idea to first update and upgrade
-the OS; run the following command to update the OS:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum update
-
-
-Point to the Repository
------------------------
-
-For CentOS based systems, there are two respositories to pull VPP binaries from:
-
-* CentOS NFV SIG Repository
-* Nexus Repository
-
-
-CentOS NFV SIG Repository
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-VPP is not in the official CentOS 7 distro; however, CentOS has Special
-Interest Groups (SIG), which are smaller groups within the CentOS community that
-focus on a small set of issues. The CentOS NFV (Network Function Virtualization)
-SIG was created to provide a CentOS-based stack that will serve as a platform
-
-To install released packages from the CentOS NFV SIG Repository on an updated
-Centos 7 system, first, install the CentOS NFV SIG FIDO repo file by running the
-following command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum install centos-release-fdio
-
-then **'Install VPP RPMs'**, as described below.
-
-This will install the latest VPP version from the repository. To install an
-older version, once the CentOS NFV SIG FDIO repo file has been installed, list
-the stored versions:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum --showduplicates list vpp* | expand
- Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

-Then install a particular version:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum install vpp-17.10-1.x86_64
-
-
-Nexus Repository
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-Build artifacts are also posted to a FD.io Nexus Repository. This includes
-official point releases, as well as nightly builds. To use any of these build
-artifacts, create a file *'/etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo'* with the
-content that points to the version needed. Below are some common examples of
-the content needed:
-
-
-VPP Latest Release
-""""""""""""""""""
-
-To allow *'yum'* access to the official VPP releases, create the file
-*'/etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo'* with the following content.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo
- [fdio-release]
- name=fd.io release branch latest merge
- baseurl=https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.centos7/
- enabled=1
- gpgcheck=0
-
-The *'yum install vpp'* command will install the most recent release. To
-install older releases, run the following command to get the list of releases
-provided.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum --showduplicates list vpp* | expand
-
-Then choose the release to install. See **'CentOS NFV SIG Repository'** for
-sample *'yum --showduplicates list'* output and an example of installing a
-particular version of the RPMs.
-
-VPP Stable Branch
-"""""""""""""""""""
-
-To allow *yum* access to the build artifacts for a VPP stable branch, create
-the file *'/etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo'* with the following content.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo
- [fdio-stable-1804]
- name=fd.io stable/1804 branch latest merge
- baseurl=https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.stable.1804.centos7/
- enabled=1
- gpgcheck=0
-
-For other stable branches, replace the *'1804'* from the above content with the
-desired release. Examples: 1606, 1609, 1701, 1704, 1707, 1710, 1804, 1807
-
-The *'yum install vpp'* command will install the most recent build on the
-branch, not the latest offical release. Run the following command to get the
-list of images produce by the branch:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum --showduplicates list vpp* | expand
-
-Then choose the image to install. See **'CentOS NFV SIG Repository'** for
-sample *'yum --showduplicates list'* output and an example of installing a
-particular version of the RPMs.
-
-
-VPP Master Branch
-"""""""""""""""""""
-
-To allow *yum* access to the nightly builds from the VPP master branch, create
-the file *'/etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo'* with the following content.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/fdio-release.repo
- [fdio-master]
- name=fd.io master branch latest merge
- baseurl=https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.master.centos7/
- enabled=1
- gpgcheck=0
-
-The *'yum install vpp'* command will install the most recent build on the
-branch. Run the following command to get the list of images produce by the
-branch.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum --showduplicates list vpp* | expand
-
-Then choose the image to install. See **'CentOS NFV SIG Repository'** for
-sample *'yum --showduplicates list'* output and an example of installing a
-particular version of the RPMs.
-
-
-Install VPP RPMs
-================
-
-To install the VPP packet engine, run the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum install vpp
-
-The *vpp* RPM depends on the *vpp-lib* and *vpp-selinux-policy*
-RPMs, so they will be installed as well.
-
-.. note::
-
- The *vpp-selinux-policy* will not enable SELinux on the system. It
- will install a Custom VPP SELinux policy that will be used if SELinux is
- enabled at any time.
-
-There are additional packages that are optional. These packages can be
-combined with the command above and installed all at once, or installed as
-needed:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum install vpp-plugins vpp-devel vpp-api-python vpp-api-lua vpp-api-java
-
-Starting VPP
-============
-
-Once VPP is installed on the system, to run VPP as a systemd service on CentOS,
-run the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo systemctl start vpp
-
-Then to enable VPP to start on system reboot, run the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo systemctl enable vpp
-
-Outside of running VPP as a systemd service, VPP can be started manually or
-made to run within GDB for debugging. See :ref:`running` for more details and
-ways to tailor VPP to a specific system.
-
-
-Uninstall the VPP RPMs
-======================
-
-To uninstall a VPP RPM, run the following command:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- $ sudo yum autoremove vpp*
