Rackspace has an API for this.

I think docs are: http://docs.rackspace.com/networks/api/v2/cn-devguide/content/create_virtual_interface.html

Doing this will help pull out ugly unnecessary UUID's from the user facing configuration of networks too.

@purpleidea This doesn't appear to be a standard feature of Vagrant plugins. Also, we're working toward having a unified CLI for the Rackspace cloud. If we were to offer this feature in a vagrant plugin, we would likely want to remove it once the unified CLI becomes available–and we don't like breaking people's code. Because of this, we're reticent to implement this feature in vagrant-rackspace.

However, in the meantime, networks are manageable through our web app:

@purpleidea Thanks for taking the time submit a suggestion, but as @elight mentioned this functionality should be accessed through the web and/or our forthcoming CLI.
