[one-users] additional parameters in network templates

[Willem van Engen]

Hi Ruben,

Thanks, this looks quite good. Indeed it makes more sense to use
$NETWORK instead of $NIC. It would be nice to be able to use
$NETWORK[NETMASK] without specification of the network name if only one
network is being used (just like $NIC).

Cheers,
