I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to pre-populate more things by the 
selection of a host group when creating a new host in Foreman. So far as I 
have experienced the Host Groups are only good for settings defaults for 
certain attributes of a host. (and puppet stuff, but we dont use any puppet 
features of foreman)

Our company has several standard host builds.

I'd like someone to be able to choose one and have foreman create the 
interfaces. The user can enter the hostname, ip and mac on their own.  I 
know I can sort of do this with razor, but I want only the specific NICs 
for each server type to be there, and in many cases they are bonded, so 
having the ability to create a bonded NIC automatically would be nice. 

Right now I am having to set up host groups with parameters specifying what 
the layout should be (and a script that gets installed during a build that 
calls out to the foreman server and grabs a yaml file that says what the 
interface names should be for a given hardware type/os major version 
combo)  it's hacky and I'd like to find a better way.

Thanks

Bill
