Subject: man: reword the descriptions of VXLAN DestinationPort= and PortRange=
X-Git-Tag: v247-rc1~122^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e6fd398d61a9810d53a2a5a30294500718e43286;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

man: reword the descriptions of VXLAN DestinationPort= and PortRange=

The usual: "empty string" is meaningless in this context. We are not assigning
DestinationPort="". Just say "unset".

Fixes #17240.
