Public bug reported: the vmware code that configures networking currently only supports writing etc/network/interfaces (eni or ifupdown) format. Additionally it has its own code to write that data (cloudinit/sources/helpers/vmware/imc/config_nic.py).
It would be better for it to use the renderers for ENI and sysconfig, and then it will gain new backends as cloud-init does. ** Affects: cloud-init Importance: Medium Assignee: Sankar Tanguturi (sankaraditya) Status: Confirmed ** Changed in: cloud-init Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: cloud-init Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Merge proposal linked: https://code.launchpad.net/~sankaraditya/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/319866 ** Changed in: cloud-init Assignee: (unassigned) => Sankar Tanguturi (sankaraditya) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
