Title:
  Booting Ironic instance, neutron port remains in DOWN state

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):

  The reason why it is happening is next.

  1. Nova allocates networks for instance. Neutron port is created with vnic_type: normal
  2. Neutron ovs agent that responds for binding this vnic type can't bind port, since de facto instance lives on dedicated hardware server.
  As result port remains unbound.
  3. Neutron don't move port to ACTIVE, since it is unbound.

  How to fix it:

  1. Create neutron port for Ironic instance with vnic_type: baremetal
  2. Implement neutron driver, that will perform fake binding of baremetal port. (If network if flat just set that port is bound, no need to perform any operations, since hardware server is already plugged to this network)
