I'm using OVS

Is there way to disconnect port, thus putting it into DOWN state on VM, 
using Openstack API ? This is important for *public clouds* when it can 
be necessary to shutdown port of unmanaged (customer's) VM. The only 
idea I have is to set admin_state_up to False and, actually, it's the 
only command, which control port state.

As I mentioned earlier, it seems it was working in Kilo ("I have checked 
the behavior of admin_state_up of Kilo version, when port admin-state-up 
is set to False, the port status will be DOWN.") but Ocata shows another 
behaviour, ignoring this parameter.

So, any ideas on how to shutdown port on VM using Openstack API?

Thank you!
