Added support for floating IPs port forwarding.
features:
- |
Support for floating IPs port forwarding has been added.
* Users can now forward the traffic from a TCP/UDP/other protocol
port of a floating IP address to a TCP/UDP/other protocol port
associated to one of the fixed IP addresses of a Neutron port.
* This is accomplished by associating ``port_forwarding``
sub-resources to floating IPs.
* To create a ``port_forwarding``, the user specifies: a floating
IP ID, the floating IP's ``external_port`` number, the Neutron
port ID ``internal_port_id``, an ``internal_ip_address`` (one of
the Neutron port's fixed IPs), the ``internal_port`` number and
the ``protocol`` to be used (TCP or UDP for example).
* CRUD operations for ``port_forwardings`` are implemented by a Neutron
API extension and a service plugin. Please refer to the Neutron API
reference documentation for details.
* A user cannot create ``port_forwardings`` for a floating IP
that is already associated with a Neutron port.
* A floating IP can have many ``port_forwardings``.
* Port forwardings can only be created for floating IPs that are
managed by centralized routers in the network node: legacy, HA,
DVR+HA.
