multi-nic added an extra virtual interface on a seprate network, like
adding a port:

That just describe create instance with multinic, that we will support.
Still have problem
with action add_fixed_ip and remove_fixed_ip in extension multinic. Those
action
invoke inject_network_info and reset_network.
Ah, sorry, my bad. That writes network data into xenstore (the new IP
address), then calls the agent inside the VM to read that data, and
apply the change in the VM, without the need to reboot.
Thanks for the info. Update the network by guest agent is not good way.
I prefer remove the extension multinic, but we can keep inject_network_info
and reset_network in extensions admin_actions.
I agree we should probably slim down the neturon focused api extension.

Howerver, it should probably include network-ids and port-ids for each
port, if we still support both:
      nova boot --image <img> --flavor <flavor> --nic net-id=<net1-id>
--nic net-id=<net2-id> <vm-name>
and this:
     nova boot --image <img> --flavor <flavor> --nic port-id=<port-id>
<vm-name>
Yes, we still support those. But why we need network-ids?
I was just thinking about if a user creates their server with a network id:
     nova boot --image <img> --flavor <flavor> --nic net-id=<net1-id>
--nic net-id=<net2-id> <vm-name>
Then nova list only shows port-ids, it seems a bit confusing.
User can get network id by port id. So I still prefer just port id.
