As I see the history we can close this with won't fix if you think please reopen this RFE

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1507499 Title: [RFE] Centralized Management System for testing the environment Status in neutron: Won't Fix Bug description: To enable operators to reduce manual work upon experiencing networking issue, and to fast pinpoint the cause of a failure, there is a need for neutron to provide real-time diagnostics of its resources. This way, current need for manual checks, often requiring root access, would be gradually replaced by API queries. Providing diagnostics options in neutron API would also open space for development of specialized tools that would solve particular type of issues, e.g. inability to ping VM’s interface. Note: The description of this RFE was changed to cover previous RFEs related to diagnostics (namely bug 1563538, bug 1537686, bug 1519537 and the original of this bug). Problem Description =================== One of common questions seen at ask.openstack.org and mailing lists is "Why cannot I ping my floating IP address?". Usually, there are common steps in the diagnostics required to answer the question involving determination of relevant namespaces, pinging the instance from that namespaces etc. Currently, these steps need to be performed manually, often by crawling the relevant hosts and running tools that require root access. Neutron currently provides data on how the resources *should* be configured. It however provides only a very little diagnostics information reflecting *actual* resource state. Hence if an issue occurs, user is often left with only a little details of what works and what not, and has to manually crawl affected hosts to troubleshoot the issue. Proposed Change =============== This RFE requests an extension of current API that exposes diagnostics for neutron resources so that it is accessible via API calls, reducing amount of needed manual work. Further it describes additions to Neutron CLI necessary to call the newly added API.
