Thanks, Kashyap.
I have made some progress in that I was able to connect to my cirros
image from the public network, but only from the host on which openstack
is installed and on which the instance is running.
At the end of Lars's video, mentioned below, he assigns a gateway ip
address to the public (192.168.20.0/24) network to the br-ex device, and
then adds a rule that I translated into this command:
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING 1 -s 192.168.20.0/24 -j MASQUERADE
but this breaks the connectivity, so I removed that so that I could
still ssh into the cirros instance from my physical host.
Currently, I'm able to log in from the openstack physical host, but not
from the rest of my 192.168.0.0 network.
My networking is a little bit rusty, so I'm not sure what the next step
is to allow me to log into the instances on the 192.168.20.0/24 network
from existing hosts on the 192.168.0.0 network.
BTW, is there a script that will provide a dump of the configurations
like the one for which you provided a URL below?
Thanks again.

That at-sounds you've got most of it right. You're not able to SSH via
floating IPs.
Couple of things:
- You might want to check if your iptables rules are correct. i.e. when
you run something like this, you should see SNAT/DNAT rules:
$ ip netns exec qrouter-2c7ba7dc-0101-417a-b76d-1cae17ae654e iptables -t nat -L -nv
| grep NAT
0 0 DNAT all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 192.169.142.12
to:30.0.0.26
0 0 DNAT all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 192.169.142.13
to:30.0.0.25
26 1704 ACCEPT all -- !qg-fb9ff0ad-56 !qg-fb9ff0ad-56 0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0 ! ctstate DNAT
0 0 DNAT all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 192.169.142.12
to:30.0.0.26
5 324 DNAT all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 192.169.142.13

0 0 SNAT all -- * * 30.0.0.26 0.0.0.0/0
to:192.169.142.12
0 0 SNAT all -- * * 30.0.0.25 0.0.0.0/0
to:192.169.142.13
0 0 SNAT all -- * * 30.0.0.0/24 0.0.0.0/0
to:192.169.142.10
- Ensure you have security group rules for SSH are set correctly (you
can enumerate them by doing '$ neutron security-group-rule-list')
I recently did a 2-node IceHouse install (but this is manual setup),
here[1] are my configurations of Nova/Neutron and iptables rules (scroll
down to bottom).
