On neutron routed provider networks IP allocation is deferred until 'binding:host_id' is set. When ironic creates neutron ports it first creates the port, then updates the port setting binding information. When using IPv6 networking ironic adds additional address allocations to ensure network chain-booting will succeed. When address allocation is deferred on port create ironic cannot detect that IPv6 is used and does not add the required additional addresses. This change ensures the 'port' object is updated after the port update setting the port binding required for neutron to allocate the address. This allows ironic to correctly detect IPv6 is used, and it will add the required IP address allocations. Story: 2009773 Task: 44254 Change-Id: I863dd4ab9615a9ce3b3dcb8798af674ac9966bf2

Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
