Code Issues Proposed changes

Users can create ports for IPs outside of allocation_pool

Browse Source 
- Indicated that the pool of allocated IPs is set by their cloud provider
- User would actually see the bug when deleting a port, but we don't
document that procedure.
- To close the bug, will also update the Networking API 2.0 doc
