## Author - Mohit. ((  Git -: http://github.com/mohi048  ))
## Python script to create openstack instance with single network interface
## Tested in Kilo release

###### Define Instance Details ######
instance_name = "test-with-api"

instance_network = "bc2ff223-64ee-4cf6-838a-0508e489313f"

#### Define Openstack Crdentials #####
username = "admin"
password = "admin"
tenant_name = "admin"
auth_url = "http://10.20.30.40:5000/v2.0/"
