• --netmask: Netmask in decimal dotted notation (e.g. 255.255.255.0)
• --gateway: IP address of gateway used to get to a different network
(subnet) or repeat the IP address for the devname option above if the desire
is to limit packets to this network.
Note: If the port is directly connected to another port, or the port is not
connected to a router, then the gateway IP address should be the
same IP address as the --ipaddr value.
• --slaves: If --slaves are specified, use commas to separate two or more slave
device names.
Note: Slaves must be specified when creating a bond.
• --mode: Mode must be specified when creating a bond. Currently LACP
(mode 4), Active Backup (mode 1), and Round Robin (mode 0) are
supported.
• --mtu: Enter 1500 to set MTU size to the standard (STD) frame size of 1500
bytes. Enter 9000 to set MTU size to allow up to the max JUMBO frame size
of 9000 bytes. If this line is not entered, 1500 (the STD frame size) will be
used.
• --defaultgw: Uses the entered gateway value as the default gateway. 
If this line is not specified, the default is NO.
• --segments: Only allow the specified traffic types on this interface.
Note: When configuring replication segmentation for an interface
(device) in addition to other segments on the same subnet, make
sure to add a route to force the replication segment to be used
exclusively for replication between a source and a target DXi.
• --nat: Specified on the target if the source needs to use this NAT IP address
for replication.
• --hosts: Only allow communication with these hosts via the specified
gateway.
• --extHostIP: Uses the entered external host IP value above as the default
external host IP. If this line is not specified, the defaults is No.
• --sure: If specified, the command will execute without asking for
confirmation.
Note that this command creates a network configuration and renders the
following network commands unusable:
• Enabling Jumbo Frames
• Disabling Jumbo Frames
• Getting Jumbo Frame Status
• Setting Up a Segmented Network
• Setting Up an Unsegmented Network
