Operational Status for Floating IPs
Currently floating IPs do not have an operational status.
The API returns the floating IP info, but there is no way to check whether the floating IP has actually been created or not.
The goal of this blueprint is to add an operational status concept for floating IPs.
This will add a readonly attribute to the API; it is worth doing this as a change to the core API rather than an extension.
The implementation of this blueprint will contain at least support for the ml2 plugin and a solution for ensuring other plugins are not broken by the change and do not report meaningless statuses if they do not support it.
This will also be beneficial for tempest tests which validate network connectivity as it will allow for a better issue diagnosis.
