+# Floating IP addresses in VNF interfaces for public access from outside a DC #
+
+## Proposer ##
+**EUAG**
+
+## Type ##
+**Feature**
+
+## Target MDG/TF ##
+RO
+
+## Description ##
+Currently OSM allows creating and using VIM networks, but it does not allow
+assigning a floating IP address to a VNF interface in order to make that VNF
+publicly available from outside the datacenter.
+
+The end user should be able to use the UI to assign, during instantiation time
+or when updating a running NS instance, a floating IP address to a VNF
+interface. The VNF interface will map implicitly to a VM interface, which will
+be the interface where the floating IP address will be actually enforced.
+The floating IP address should come from the pool of floating IP addresses in
+the datacenter where the VNF is deployed.
