#######################################

*Number of network interfaces created*

Type: ``int``

Help
====

.. code-block:: none

    By default only one network interface is created. It is possible
    to create multiple interfaces in certain use cases. For example if
    multiple ports are defined in gPTP, then multiple network interfaces
    must be created here.

Direct dependencies
===================
