Bootstrap Data
==============
You can use one or more mechanisms to pass information to a new |VNF| when it
is originally launched. The |VNF| can use this information for system
configuration purposes or to determine running options for the services it
provides.
The mechanisms used to convey information from the Cloud OS to the |VNF| are
the metadata server and config drive.
.. _bootstrap-data-ul-aw2-l2d-3w:
- User data is made available to the |VNF| through either the metadata
service or the configuration drive.
- The cloud-init package reads information from either the metadata
server or the configuration drive.
Detailed information about the OpenStack metadata server, config drive, and
cloud-init is available online.
