Description

Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1325813
Description of problem:
In sat6.2, we can define 'bridge' type interface along with all its attributes.
but looks like Satellite just documents the bridge interface in webUI instead of configuring it while provisioning a new host.

we should update "kickstart_networking_setup" template to configure it while provisioning a new host. In any case kickstart %post section should update this.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite6.2 beta snap6.2

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a new host
2. while creating host, add new 'bridge' type interface
3.

Actual results:

Expected results:
bridge type interface should be configure on host after provisioning

We can either do it as template update which brings more code to the snippet or better - finish work that has been started during construction day https://github.com/ares/foreman_net_templates

Actions #2

Adding a bridge interface with ip and hostname during provisioning messes up the host entry.

The host then sometimes can't be deleted and has to be cleaned from the database manually which is a hassle.

Actions #3

Updated by Luca Lesinigo over 3 years ago

I'm trying to provision CentOS 7 or 8 hosts with bridged interfaces, using the default kickstart templates provided with Foreman 2.1.2, but so far I have not been able to do that: my host ends up with only the physical interface configured under /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.

Am I reading this issue correctly that this feature is not yet implemented / working out of the box? Or am I doing something wrong on my side?
