Names are easier to use for humans, so let's allow them. The actual name -> UUID convertion happens during validation and its result is cached for each interface instance. This change will allow recreating a network without changing Ironic configuration or setting a network name in advance (e.g. by an installer). Note that when names are used, an administrator is responsible for ensuring that no other networks have the same name (names are not unique in Neutron).

Ironic
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
