If the network_interface is specified as an integer, the interface must currently exist on the player; otherwise, the object-creation function will return Invalid. Conversely, specifying the network_interface as a string allows you to create a roNetworkConfiguration instance for an interface that is not currently present on the player.
The network interface can be configured as a VLAN using the following string format: "[parent_interface].[vlan_id]" (e.g "eth0.42"). Once the VLAN interface(s) are configured, they must be enabled on the parent network interface (e.g. "eth0") using the SetVlanIds() method. VLAN interfaces use DHCP by default. They are supported on Series 4 (XTx44, XDx34, HDx24, LS424) and Series 3 (XTx43, XDx33, HDx23, LS423, HO523) players only.
