Section Number and Name: 5.10.1: Configure Network Teaming Using nmcli

Describe the issue: 

Customer reported an error in the guidance and command-line example in section 5.10.1. 

The error is in the second paragraph and the following CLI example:

Current text:

To create a new team interface, with name team-ServerA, issue a command as follows:
~]$ nmcli connection add type team ifname team-ServerA
Connection 'team-ServerA' (b954c62f-5fdd-4339-97b0-40efac734c50) successfully added.


Correction requested: 

To create a new team interface, with name ServerA, issue a command as follows:
~]$ nmcli connection add type team ifname ServerA

==

Please also include mention that the interface type is prepended to the requested interface name. Thanks.

  Hi Stephen,

I need a little bit more detailed information:
1. Who is the customer?
2. Who is the contact person?
3. Is there a support case for this?
Thank you.

Kind regards,
Mirek

I've fixed the error in the command line and I've also corrected the paragraph before the mentioned command line [1]. I can't include the suggested "mention that the interface type is prepended to the requested interface name", because the interface type is not prepended to the interface "name", but to the interface "id" (see the command output in the bottom of the same section). In other words, as soon as I will be able to publish an async release of the Networking Guide on the Customer Portal, we should close this bug as "solved". Thanks lrintel for helping me.
