systemd-based boot scripts rely on the ''$network boot facility'' to express their dependency on the network status (note that '$' is the conventional way to refer to a boot facility and it does not imply variable substitution). According to the [[http://refspecs.linuxbase.org/LSB_3.1.1/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/facilname.html Linux specifications]], $network can be used to signal that basic network support is available. This definition is rather vague.
