             Summary: Store old network offering ID when updating it for a 
network
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-4632
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4632
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: API, Management Server
    Affects Versions: 4.1.0
            Reporter: Kirk Kosinski
            Priority: Minor


After the network offering is changed for a network, it doesn't seem possible 
to determine the previous network offering for the network through the UI or 
API. The updateNetwork command only responds with the new network offering in 
the "networkofferingid" tag. It would be useful if the response included a 
"previousnetworkofferingid" tag. Additionally, it would also be useful if this 
information was stored and returned by listEvents for the associated 
NETWORK.UPDATE event.

This information is needed if the administrator wants to charge for the network 
offering. If an end-user is using one offering for part of a month and another 
one for the rest of the month, it is difficult to find this information.

Another possible use would be if an end-user accidentally changed the network 
offering, and couldn't recall the previous network offering. Having some way to 
determine the previous network offering would allow the end-user to easily 
change back to it.
