This feature introduces new REST API resources for a better way to manage networks. Network related tasks like removing unmanaged networks, attaching new networks, and creating bonds are now easier using the new 'HostSetupNetworks' and 'NetworkAttachment' entities.

Description Nir Yechiel 2014-09-02 11:04:40 UTC 
Description of problem:

The current host networking API suffers from various limitations:

- A mix of the physical and the logical network configuration
- A Cumbersome request format for 'setup networks'
- The attach/detach network isn't the RESTFul way to modify the interface
- Cannot support a host only network (a network without a physical NIC)
Comment 1 Barak 2015-08-03 14:35:24 UTC 
moving this bug to MODIFIED as all the parts but QOS is in.

opened 2 separate bugs on QOS:
Bug 1249654 - for engine
Bug 1249657 - for api
Comment 2 Yaniv Lavi 2015-08-26 10:41:26 UTC 
Please track any additional changes like oVirt gerrit 45211 in separate BZs and not via this RFE.

Hi Martin, 
     I have updated the doc text for release notes. Can you confirm if it is correct? 
Also, is there a docs bug opened for this new feature? This probably needs to go into the REST API guide and not just Release Notes. 
Do you have examples on how to use the new options?

Cheers,
Julie
