Additional field on cluster like network_check_status? When it will be
populated with result?
I think it will simply duplicate task.status with network_verify name

Network check is not a single task.. Right now there is two, and probably
we will need one more right in this release (setup public network and ping
gateway). And AFAIK there is a need for other pre deployment verifications..

I would prefer to make a separate tab with pre_deployment verifications,
similar to ostf.
But if you guys want to make smth right now, compute status of network
verification based on task with name network_verify,
if you deleted this task from UI (for some reason) just add warning that
verification wasnt performed.
If there is more than one task with network_verify for any given cluster -
pick latest one.
