 .. class:: IPv4Interface(address)
 
-   Construct an IPv4 interface.  *address* is a string or integer representing
-   the IP interface.  An :exc:`AddressValueError` is raised if *address* is not
-   a valid IPv4 address.
+   Construct an IPv4 interface.  The meaning of *address* is as in the
+   constructor of :class:`IPv4Network`, except that arbitrary host addresses
+   are always accepted.
 
-   The network address for the interface is determined by calling
-   ``IPv4Network(address, strict=False)``.
+   :class:`IPv4Interface` is a subclass of :class:`IPv4Address`, so it inherits
+   all the attributes from that class.  In addition, the following attributes
+   are available:

-   IPv4Interface('192.168.0.0/24')
