[Rdo-list] Possible bug? Horizon/Floating IPs

[Charles Short]

Hi,

We had a 'similar' persistent floating ip issue a while ago that was 
reported to RH and fixed. All caused by HA routers.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1505700
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/234247/

Summary -

Created a new user/project/router.
Created an instance with a floating ip.
The floating ip correctly appeared on the qrouter and the instance was 
accessible via ssh externally.
We disassociated the floating ip from the instance BUT the floating ip 
was still bound to the qrouter.
We released the floating ip BUT the floating ip was still bound to the 
qrouter.
We logged into Horizon as a different user/project (different qrouter). 
We managed to allocate the floating ip still bound to the other qrouter 
to this  qrouter. This ip was then associated to an instance. So the 
same floating ip was bound to two different qrouters  and effectively 
associated to two different instances in two separate projects.
When you ssh to the floating ip you connected to either instance 
depending on the ARP cache.
