 Hooray!  This shows that the subscriber (1) has external connectivity, and
 (2) can access the new service via the vSG.

+## Troubleshooting
+
+Sometimes the ExampleService instance comes up with the wrong default route.  If the 
+ExampleService instance is active but the `curl` command does not work, SSH to the
+instance and check its default gateway.  Assuming the management address of the `mysite_exampleservice`
+VM is 172.27.0.3:
+
+```
+ubuntu@pod:~$ ssh-agent bash
+ubuntu@pod:~$ ssh-add
+ubuntu@pod:~$ ssh -A ubuntu@nova-compute
+ubuntu@nova-compute:~$ ssh ubuntu@172.27.0.3
+ubuntu@mysite_exampleservice-1:~$ route -n
+```
+
+If the default gateway is not `10.168.1.1`, manually set it to this value.
