Public bug reported: This FFe would cause EC2 instance to fetch networking information every boot and is implemented in https://github.com/canonical/cloud- init/pull/5110 . Currently, EC2 only fetches that information first boot and uses that cached information on subsequent boots.
https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/4799 (which is part of Noble) added the ability to respond to NIC changes (hotplug) on a running instance and made it default behavior. This leaves us with a gap in that we can respond to hotplug events while the instance is running, but if network changes while the instance is powered off, the instance won't be aware of the network changes on next boot. This FFe is to close that gap. This has already been discussed with and approved by Amazon in Salesforce case #00378972 . ** Affects: cloud-init (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: - This would cause EC2 instance to fetch networking information every + This FFe would cause EC2 instance to fetch networking information every boot.
