Manage DHCP server configured subnets
Description
Hello,
Where we want to use Foreman each server gets its own VLAN and subnet and we do DHCP relay on the switch port to foreman-proxy.
The problem we encounter is that subnets we add (so new hosts can use them) do not appear in the dhcpd.conf. If I create entries for these subnets manually then it all seems to work smoothly.
I know Dominic is trying to work on a fix1, but either I did not apply it correctly, or it doesn't work, in the end dhcpd.conf was still untouched.
It would be fairly simple to create a bash script and dump foreman.subnets into dhcpd.conf, but it would be quite ugly.
Suggestions?
I'm on CentOS 7 and Foreman 1.7.2 installed via foreman-installer.

I agree that syncing subnets is an interesting addition. IMHO before we start working on that we should refactor existing orchestration so it's more reliable and we should introduce some unified way of having things "managed". The managed flag on host and interface already covers multiple things so having some "sync" kind of flag for all objects that runs orchestration would make sense to me.
