network.target does not imply that any NICs are configured with
an IP address, merely that the networking mgmt daemon(s) are
running.  A dep on NetworkManager.service has the same issue.
NetworkManager has started, but this doesn't imply DHCP has
completed

network-online.target has the semantics that an IP is present,
but per my other reply I don't think we should be serializing
QGA startup against network configuration.


With regards,
Daniel
