The scenario I solved at the time - when submitting this patch was trying to
create HTTP load via VPN devices with dynamically assigned addresses. While
possible to regenerate the scenario every time VPN devices change addresses,
I've found it cleaner to be able to assign devices in the scenario rather than
addresses. The script that fired up the VPN devices knew what devices are going
to come up, but the addresses would be assigned dynamically every time. The
current behaviour of having a source IP address is still preserved after
applying this patch.
