+Local Mirrors
+-------------
+``ceph-deploy`` supports local mirror installation by syncing a repository to
+remote servers and configuring correctly the remote hosts to install directly
+from those local paths (as opposed to going through the network).
+
+The one requirement for this option to work is to have a ``release.asc`` at the
+top of the directory that holds the repository files.
+
+That file is used by Ceph as the key for its signed packages and it is usually
+retrieved from::
+
+        https://ceph.com/git/?p=ceph.git;a=blob_plain;f=keys/release.asc
+
+This is how it would look the process to get Ceph installed from a local
+repository in an admin host::
