Comment 3 for bug 1612898

Hi there,

since this is still open and the --nic option is still a little bit unhandy, I'd like to address this issue again.

Ukesh is right imho: Simplifying the arguments should not include reducing the functionality.

But if we would use --port and --network instead of --nic, isn't it possible to keep v4-fixed-ip and v6-fixed-ip as optional parameters, but for --port and --network instead of --nic?

With your example:

--network 5678,v4-fixed-ip=127.2.3.8

Or is that bad syntax?

Btw: If no one else is working on this right now, I could take over the bug and work on a commit.
