<dd>The <code>address</code> attribute defines an IPv4 address in

- address will be their IPv4 default route. For IPv6, the default route is
- established via Router Advertisement.
- For IPv4 addresses, the <code>netmask</code>
- attribute defines the significant bits of the network address,
- again specified in dotted-decimal format. For IPv6 addresses,
- and as an alternate method for IPv4 addresses, you can specify
- the significant bits of the network address with the <code>prefix</code>
- attribute, which is an integer (for example, <code>netmask='255.255.255.0'</code>
- could also be given as <code>prefix='24'</code>. The <code>family</code>
- attribute is used to specify the type of address - 'ipv4' or 'ipv6'; if no
- <code>family</code> is given, 'ipv4' is assumed. A network can have more than
- one of each family of address defined, but only a single IPv4 address can have a
