[Spce-user] mr6.4.1 testing

[Henk]

Hi Manuel,

I tried and it works when you leave the IP address in.

Also if used without DHCP, I think --netmask=<mask>, dns=<nameserver> 
--broadcast=<IP> and --gateway=<IP> should be added to get things working.

BTW, "service networking restart" (or systemctl restart networking) 
works without disconnection (if configured properly).

Thank you,

Regards,

Henk
