Port name formatting
####################
Some node like qemu allow you to personnalize the name of ports in order to match the name of the interfaces inside the emulator.
Simple syntax
==============
The first {} will be replace by the interface number
For example: "eth{}" will give:
* eth0
* eth1
* eth2
Or more verbose "eth{port0}" and "eth{0}" will do the same.
Use segments
============
Segment allow you to split your interface in multiple ports
For example "Ethernet{segment0}/{port0}" with a segment size of 3:
* Ethernet0/0
* Ethernet0/1
* Ethernet0/2
* Ethernet1/0
* Ethernet1/1
You can also change the start number.
For example "Ethernet{segment1}/{port1}" with a segment size of 3:
* Ethernet1/1
* Ethernet1/2
* Ethernet1/3
* Ethernet2/1
* Ethernet2/2
This work from port0 to port9 if you need a bigger range ask us.
