Say we have a new API 'ProvisionNetwork' to provision a network that has been created by the user. Since the user is not aware of the internal state of a network it would be confusing for the user to understand the difference b/w the 2 API's, CreateNetwork and ProvisionNetwork. > Is it OK to make this behavior > zone-wide, I.e., on every guest network? But this would mean having all networks (in the zone which has this behavior enabled) in an implemented state, even if a network has no physical device or VM deployed in it. This is changing the default CS behavior of not having resources allocated to a network if the network doesn't require it.
