$It is recommended to create a dedicated OpenStack project for use with this exporter. It needs access to an Ubuntu cloud image with cloud-init
$ wget https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/xenial/current/xenial-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img
$ openstack image create --file xenial-server-cloudimg-amd64-disk1.img ubuntu-16.04-x86_64
$ openstack network create private
$ openstack subnet create --subnet-range 192.168.0.0/24 --network private private
$ openstack router create router
$ openstack router add subnet router private
$ openstack router set --external-gateway public router
