  optional arguments:
    -h, --help            show this help message and exit
    --request-format {json,xml}

    --name NAME           Name of this port.
    --admin-state-down    Set admin state up to false.
    --mac-address MAC_ADDRESS
                          MAC address of this port.
    --device-id DEVICE_ID
                          Device ID of this port.
    --fixed-ip subnet_id=SUBNET,ip_address=IP_ADDR
                          Desired IP and/or subnet for this port:
                          subnet_id=<name_or_id>,ip_address=<ip>.You can repeat
                          this option.
    --security-group SECURITY_GROUP
                          Security group associated with the port. You can
                          repeat this option.
    --no-security-groups  Associate no security groups with the port.
    --extra-dhcp-opt EXTRA_DHCP_OPTS
                          Extra dhcp options to be assigned to this port:
                          opt_name=<dhcp_option_name>,opt_value=<value>. You can
                          repeat this option.

  output formatters:
    output formatter options

    -f {html,json,shell,table,value,yaml}, --format {html,json,shell,table,value,yaml}
                          the output format, defaults to table
    -c COLUMN, --column COLUMN
                          specify the column(s) to include, can be repeated

  table formatter:
    --max-width <integer>
                          Maximum display width, 0 to disable

  shell formatter:
    a format a UNIX shell can parse (variable="value")

    --prefix PREFIX       add a prefix to all variable names

  
  Note the optional argument [--fixed-ip subnet_id=SUBNET,ip_address=IP_ADDR]

  I accidentally omit "ip_address=" when using this option: --fixed-ip
  10.0.0.4

  The correct syntax should be: --fixed-ip ip_address=10.0.0.4

  ubuntu@trusty1:~/devstack$ neutron port-create --fixed-ip 10.0.0.4 private
