Finally, the third solution, which is the adopted one, just includes some extra parameters in the types ''structure_network'', ''structure_interface'', and ''structure_interface_alias''. I thought that this solution would be the easiest one to implement, since not all the parameters in a structure would need to be defined, so this would be ideal for sites that wanted only IPv4. | Finally, the third solution, which is the adopted one, just includes some extra parameters in the types ''structure_network'', ''structure_interface'', and ''structure_interface_alias''.

While I was writing this document, it came to my head that this is going to set to yes NETWORKING_IPV6 and IPV6INIT, either we want it or not; so I need to modify this somehow... I'm thinking of �If myip6 is empty, then don't initialize those two variables� | While I was writing this document, it came to my head that this is going to set to yes NETWORKING_IPV6 and IPV6INIT, either we want it or not; so I need to modify this somehow...
