Adam Winberg commented on FACT-1907   Re: facter 3.12.2 choses wrong ip as main ip We just hit this with RHEL9 - we use dhcp as source for our primary ip and then add secondary ip's as static configuration via Puppet. In newer versions of NetworkManager the static configurations have higher priority than dhcp addresses which results in facter using the wrong ip to set for example 'ip', 'netmask' and 'network' facts. https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6961919 To make sure that our dhcp address is used as primary address in routing we therefore have had to set the netmask to '/32' for our secondary addresses. This solves the routing problem (i.e. outgoing traffic uses wrong source ip) but the facter facts are still wrong since the 'ip addr' output puts the statically configured addresses above the primary (dhcp) address.   Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.11#820011-sha1:0629dd8) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
