Some of the datasources such as NoCloud offer the ability to configure network interfaces via meta-data.
It would be useful if the OVFDataSource could provide a similar feature, using OVF properties.
The OVF environment doesn't lend itself to writing a multi-line document i.e
network-interfaces: |
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.10
network 192.168.1.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.254
dns-nameservers 10.20.10.110 10.20.10.113
dns-search myopwvbfs.com
Instead, indvidual properties should be used to make up the network settings, which could then be translated to the multi-line format internally.
