The new field 'physical_network' was added to Port in version
1.7, and port creation was moved from the API to the conductor
service in commit 9e3f412186.
This change adds a method can_send_create_port() to the conductor
RPCAPI that allows the caller to determine whether the conductor is able
to create ports. During a rolling upgrade this may return False, and the
API will need to determine whether it is able to create the port locally
as was done previously.
The create_port RPC method was added to support validation of the
physical_network field of ports in portgroups. A port may therefore be
safely created in the API service if it is not a member of a portgroup.
If the port being created is a member of a portgroup, then it cannot be
safely validated by the API service and the request must be rejected.

Ironic
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.
