+    This argument can be repeated multiple times.  Its main use is to allow network interfaces be created
+    as ``enoX`` on Linux, with X being the instance number, instead of the name depending on the interface
+    position on the PCI bus.
+
+    Here is an example of use:
+
+    .. parsed-literal::
+
+        -netdev user,id=internet \\
+        -device virtio-net-pci,mac=50:54:00:00:00:42,netdev=internet,id=internet-dev \\
+        -smbios type=41,designation='Onboard LAN',instance=1,kind=ethernet,pcidev=internet-dev
+
+    In the guest OS, the device should then appear as ``eno1``:
+
+    ..parsed-literal::
+
+         $ ip -brief l
+         lo               UNKNOWN        00:00:00:00:00:00 <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP>

+
+    Currently, the PCI device has to be attached to the root bus.
