Hiya,

I'm looking to find out if there is any way to access an instance via its
public (floating ip) from within the same instance.

The docs mention that this is not possible here:
http://docs.openstack.org/diablo/openstack-compute/admin/content/associating-public-ip.html

My question is this: is this a physical impossibility, or a limitation of
the current nova-network implementation?

Thanks,
Kiall
