Summer Long e1185730aa Removed deprecated *-floating-ip from procedures
Switched out 'nova add-floating-ip' for 'nova floating-ip-associate'
and 'nova remove-floating-ip' for 'nova floating-ip-disassociate'.
Redid basic descriptions in End User Guide, and removed from Admin
User Guide.
Added floating-IP-bulk* procedures to the Admin User Guide (as the
only admin-specific procedures). Added references to EUG and CAG to
Admin User Guide.

<title>Manage IP addresses</title>
<para>Each instance has a private, fixed IP address (assigned when launched) and can also have a
public, or floating, address. Private IP addresses are used for communication between
instances, and public addresses are used for communication with networks outside the cloud,
including the Internet.</para>
<para>

<listitem>
<para>By default, both administrative and end users can associate floating IP
addresses with projects and instances. You can change user permissions for
managing IP addresses by updating the <filename>/etc/nova/policy.json</filename>
file. For basic floating-IP procedures, refer to the <citetitle>Manage IP
Addresses</citetitle> section in the <link

(<systemitem>neutron</systemitem>), refer to the <link

floating IP addresses are created by default in OpenStack Networking.</para>

<para>As an administrator using legacy networking (<systemitem>nova-network</systemitem>), you
can use the following bulk commands to list, create, and delete ranges of floating IP
addresses. These addresses can then be associated with instances by end users:</para>

<para>You should use a range of free IP addresses that is correct for your
network. If you are not sure, at least try to avoid the DHCP address
range:</para>
<para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Pick a small range (/29 gives an 8 address range, 6 of
which will be usable)</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Use <command>nmap</command> to check a range's
availability. For example, 192.168.1.56/29 represents a
small range of addresses (192.168.1.56-63, with 57-62
usable), and you could run the command <command>nmap -sn
192.168.1.56/29</command> to check whether the entire
range is currently unused.</para>
