Open Stack

Yes, reference is a problem. I see that we already have a resource
OS::Neutron::Port , but the problem is that we need to specify MAC & IP
manually for this resource and it is difficult to use this resource in a
autoscaling group.

https://github.com/openstack/heat-templates/blob/master/cfn/F17/Neutron.template

I will try to file a bp to see if we can introduce a new source such as
OS::Heat::PortPool etc to heat.

Thanks!
