In my defence - after checking - I always relied on the UI (stupidly) and it will not offer the option to specify an account. So I assumed it's not possible ... :-(
Using the API (via cloudmonkey) did the job. i.e. create network account=lucian domainid=0638fea4-2d33-11e4-8126-f2a3ece198a5 displaytext=lucian displaynetwork=true name=lucian startip=10.11.12.2 endip=10.11.12.20 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=10.11.12.1 networkdomain=lucian.priv physicalnetworkid=50aeceb7-3eae-4c88-8127-b58a5a55711c networkofferingid=8cf9be49-8393-4a12-aca2-74110b6389ca vlan=111 zoneid=a9521258-d7f3-4992-a1d1-a513fed003ec Thanks, Geoff.
