Bug Description
The specification `support-
the dhcp provider class pluggable which the base class does two things,
1) Update port dhcp options and 2) Update port mac address.
This implies that the dhcp server knows about the port but there is no method
to register a MAC/IP pair to the DHCP service. Therefore it is not guaranteed
that the dhcp server knows about a mac address except when the neutron
dhcp provider class is used since neutron receives a port create request
from nova upon "nova boot".
The dhcp base class needs a "create_
which will be called when the admin does a 'ironic port-create'.
This spcification will change the behaviour of 'ironic port-create' and
send the mac address to the dhcp server with an optional IP address.
The Neutron dhcp provider class will not override the "create_
method so no behavioural changes will be made.
Future dhcp provider classes should implement the method accordingly.
