Neutron and nova-net are just two completely separate networking services
for OpenStack.  Neutron being the newer which will eventually replace
nova-network altogether.

Which one you are running depends on which service you install and
configure.  If you take look at the network section at docs.openstack.org
it may paint a clearer picture.

Good luck,
John
