I think you can create multiple networks using "nova-manage network
create" and you can also have different networks for different
tenants, using the "--project_id" option.

When booting the machine using the nova command line you can specify
the network id (which is not visible with the "nova net-list" command,
you will have to use the uuid printed by "nova-managet network list"
command). The command will look like:

    nova boot --nic net-id=<uuid>

However, I'm not sure what will happen when you start a new instance
without the "--nic" option: are both network assigned to the VM or
only the default one?

Also, I don't know if euca-start-instances allows you to specify the
network, nor if there are EC2 APIs to do so.
