This change is needed for enabling floating IP's on routed networks. To be able to create a subnet that spans all segments of a routed network, a special subnet service type of 'network:routed' is used to denote a network that can span all segments of a routed network. To create floating IP's on a routed network, the subnet must be created with a service_type of 'network:routed'. After the subnet has been created, floating IP's can be allocated and associated as before. See the design spec https://review.opendev.org/#/c/486450/ for reference. One caveat for this approach is that it requires the underlying infrastructure to be aware of and able to route /32 host routes for the floating IP. This implies that in practice, use of the 'network:routed' service type should be done in conjunction with one or both of the following: 1. Third-party SDN backend that handles this service type in its own way 2. neutron-dynamic-routing and the BGP service plugin for announcing the appropriate next-hops for floating IP's. This is compatible with DVR and non-DVR environments.
