[Bug 1596659] [NEW] [RFE] Self-Aware Network Providers

 

Public bug reported:

The issue stemmed up from this bug submitted in Horizon: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1596411


The ability for a new Neutron feature to allow users to find out the network type providers supported in their project. 

i.e when doing a "net-create" one can specify the --provider:network_type. 
If I were to create a network with Geneve in my current env it will throw an error saying  "Invalid input for operation: network_type value 'geneve' not supported.

The proposed solution would return the list of network-types supported (VLAN, GRE, VXLAN...)
from which one can create a network without running into Error messages.

Ability to expose which plugins and drivers are enabled and supported.
