Generally it's not a good idea to combine the openstack API network 
and the Ceph "public" network since you want to reserve access to the 
latter to the cloud infrastructure itself (compute nodes, controllers) 
-- which is under control of the cloud administrators -- and prevent 
regular users (tenants) from accessing the storage infrastructure.
