Title:
  configuration of local_ip shoud be more deployer-friendly

Status in neutron:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Currently only a literal IP address is allowed for local_ip in
  ovs_neutron_plugin.ini. Every node has its own IP address thus a
  deployer has to take care to make sure that ovs_neutron_plugin.ini on
  each host holds proper local_ip. This is adding some complexity to
  deployment of Neutron.

  It seems that local_ip can be more flexible way: Instead of using a literal IP address, the deployer specifies some conditions to pick an IP address which is suitable to local_ip. For example:
   * IP address of a specified interface
   * IP address belonging to a specified network(CIDR)
   * IP address connected to the default gateway

  Such option will be helpful even if the deployer uses a deployment
  system.
