  Dear bug triager. This bug was created since a commit was marked with DOCIMPACT.
  Your project "openstack/neutron" is set up so that we directly report the documentation bugs against it. If this needs changing, the docimpact-group option needs to be added for the project. You can ask the OpenStack infra team (#openstack-infra on freenode) for help if you need to.

      Add the ability to load a set of service plugins on startup
      
      Service plugins are a great way of adding functionality in a
      cohesive way. Some plugins (e.g. network ip availability or
      auto_allocate) extend the capabilities of the Neutron server
      by being completely orthogonal to the core plugin, and yet may
      be considered an integral part of functionality available in
      any Neutron deployment. For this reason, it makes sense to
      include them seamlessly in the service plugin loading process.
      
      This patch, in particular, introduces the 'auto_allocate' service
      plugin for default loading, as we'd want this feature to be enabled
      for Nova to use irrespective of the chosen underlying core plugin.
      
      The feature requires subnetpools, external_net and router, while
      the first is part of the core, the others can be plugin specific
      and they must be explicitly advertised. That said, they all are
      features that any deployment can hardly live without.
      
      DocImpact: The "get-me-a-network" feature simplifies the process
      for launching an instance with basic network connectivity (via an
      externally connected private tenant network).
      
      Once leveraged by Nova, a tenant/admin is no longer required to
      provision networking resources ahead of boot process in order to
      successfully launch an instance.
      
      Implements: blueprint get-me-a-network
