+.. _network-rbac-tests:
+
+Network RBAC Tests
+==================
+
+What are these tests?
+---------------------
+
+These tests are RBAC tests for Neutron and its associated plugins. They are
+broken up into the following categories:
+
+* :ref:`neutron-rbac-tests`
+* :ref:`neutron-plugin-rbac-tests`
+
+.. _neutron-rbac-tests:
+
+Neutron tests
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Neutron RBAC tests inherit from the base class ``BaseNetworkRbacTest``. They
+test many of the Neutron policies found in the service's `policy.json file`_.
+These tests are gated in many `Zuul jobs`_ (master, n-1, n-2) against many
+roles (member, admin).
+
+.. _neutron-plugin-rbac-tests:
+
+Neutron plugin tests
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Neutron RBAC plugin tests focus on testing RBAC for various Neutron
+extensions and plugins, or, stated differently:
+
+* tests that rely on `neutron-tempest-plugin`_
+* external Neutron plugins
+
+These tests inherit from the base class ``BaseNetworkPluginRbacTest``. If an
+extension or plugin is not enabled in the cloud, the corresponding tests are
+gracefully skipped.
+
+.. note::
+
+  Patrole should import as few dependencies from ``neutron_tempest_plugin`` as
+  possible (such as ``neutron_tempest_plugin.api.clients`` for the service
+  clients) because the module is not a `stable interface`_.
