[Users] Fwd: HostNic Addition with IP Address

[Rahul Upadhyaya]

Thanks Michael,

I had a older version of the python-binding which had bonding in #1 as
a compulsory parameter... Seeing your options I updated the sdk and now the
error is resolved. I see bonding as an optional param.

Regards,
Rahul.

Hi Rahul,

#1 is the right place for doing this, see method __doc__ [1]
#2 used for attaching network to NIC, see __doc__ is [2]

* note all methods in sdk well documented describing what
parameters-holder to use and how to fill it.
