I've systems with multiple NICs. This gives problems with the gateway and hostname that are configured per NIC.
My proposal is:
- Make the Hostname and Gateway a system wide field instead of per NIC. This information can be used to generate the /etc/sysconfig/network
- Add an optional dnsname field to the NIC that can be used to provision the DNS or generate a hosts files
- Add a route field to the NICs there entries can be added in the format ipaddress:netmask:gateway. This is used to generate route-ethX
I prefer we'd use the CIDR notation, as that's how it would end up in the route-ethX file. Is ipaddress/mask:gateway okay for everyone?
+1 from me.
I've gone ahead and pushed this (static routes) to my networking branch.
