Hello,

seeing that 6991 is up for a refresh I wonder if this would be the time to suggest the addition of a type for address-and-prefix-length, for example like 192.0.2.1/24?

I find that it's the most natural way express the address and prefix-length to configure on an interface or for some other use. We currently have an ip-prefix type which allows CIDR style prefixes but since all bits to the right of the mask is to be 0 it is only possible to use for describing the IP prefix / network address itself - not the address of a host in that network.

I actually wish the interface-ip modules would have used a combined leaf for these settings rather than the dual-leaf approach it currently has, but I suppose that ship has sailed :/

Regardless, can we add such a type? Is this the document and time to do it? :)

Kind regard,
   Kristian.
