I agree. I would expect there to be per interface fields to hold the speed and duplex settings.

Can we get away with adding a generic field for options? If so we should do it.

I think this was talked about before, actually. (If so, all the more reason)

And then we tweak the network config snippets to "make it so" so folks don't need to figure out how to write the templating to make that happen.

    Yes, we should have an options field, since sometimes you need to
    set the
    speed/duplex manually, or set other options.  For instance, at my last
    company the management switches were only 10/100 and didn't like the
    on-board gig links on the HP servers if you left it at auto detect.
