In network we have some topics that have been partially addressed and
some not:

In short term:

- The current hostname setup (I could extend it, but basically it is
about functional tests, update or remove out of date documentation and
approval of current behavior by PM or PjM)

In long term:

- Split of proposal and current network configuration during the
installation

- Some research in vpn configuration. (would it be nice to have as a
connection in network module as NM does? what about supporting wireguard?)
