    Allow creating loadbalancer with network_id
    
    Create loadbalancer accepts either a vip_subnet_id
    or vip_network_id. If vip_network_id is provided the
    vip port is created on that network using the default
    neutron behavior. If neutron assigns multiple fixed ips,
    an ipv4 addresses is chosen as the vip in preference to
    ipv6 addresses.

    Who would use the feature?
    LBaaS users on a network with multiple subnets
    
    Why use the feature?
    Large deployments may have many subnets to allocate
    vip addresses. Many of these subnets might have
    no addresses remaining to allocate. Creating a
    loadbalancer by network selects a subnet with an
    available address.
    
    What is the exact usage for the feature?

Title:
  [RFE] Add the ability to create lb vip and member with network_id

Status in neutron:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  For large deployments that use cells and provider networks, it may not
  make sense to only allow a user to specify the subnet in which to
  allocate a port because nova scheduling may not be able to allocate a
  port on the specified subnet.  Specifying a subnet would create a
  conflict with that, especially when it comes to capacity management.

  Allowing network_id to be specified, in addition to subnet_id, will
  give flexibility to deployers who only want to allow allocation by
  network_id.
