+* **src/emuvim/** all emulator code 
+ * **api/** Data center API endpoint implementations (zerorpc, OpenStack REST, ...)
+ * **cli/** CLI client to interact with a running emulator
+ * **dcemulator/** Dockernet wrapper that introduces the notion of data centers and API endpoints
+ * **examples/** Example topology scripts
+ * **test/** Unit tests
+* **ansible/** Ansible install scripts
+* **util/** helper scripts
+
+### Installation
+Automatic installation is provide through Ansible playbooks.
+
+* Requires: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
+* `sudo apt-get install ansible git`
+* `sudo vim /etc/ansible/hosts`
+* Add: `localhost ansible_connection=local`
+
+#### 1. Dockernet
+* `cd`
+* `git clone -b dockernet-sonata https://github.com/mpeuster/dockernet.git`
+* `cd ~/dockernet/ansible`
+* `sudo ansible-playbook install.yml`
+* Wait (and have a coffee) ...
+
+#### 2. Emulator
+* Fork the repository.
+* `cd`
+* `git clone https://github.com/<user>/son-emu.git`
+* `cd ~/son-emu/ansible`
+* `sudo ansible-playbook install.yml`
+
+
+### Run
+
+In the `~/son-emu` directory:
+
+* During development:
+ * `python setup.py develop`
+* Otherwise, for a classic installation:
+ * `python setup.py install`
+* First terminal:
+ * `sudo python src/emuvim/examples/simple_topology.py 
+`
+* Second terminal:
+ * `son-emu-cli compute start -d datacenter1 -n vnf1`
+ * `son-emu-cli compute start -d datacenter1 -n vnf2`
+ * `son-emu-cli compute list`
+* First terminal:
+ * `dockernet> vnf1 ping -c 2 vnf2`
+* Second terminal:
+ *  `son-emu-cli monitor get_rate -vnf vnf1`
+
+### Run Unit Tests
+* `cd ~/son-emu`
+* `sudo py.test -v src/emuvim` (equivalent to `python setup.py test -v --addopts 'src/emuvim'` but with direct access to the commandline arguments)
+
+### CLI
+* [Full CLI command documentation](https://github.com/sonata-nfv/son-emu/wiki/CLI-Command-Overview)
