✨ New Feature request - compatibility with CentOS templates

LUDUS allows to build templates that are accepted by the server to create range a configuration.

CentOS templates build well and the conditions as documented in Ludus Documentation are met. During a range deployement, the CentOS template first gets an IP from DHCP and then it is reconfigured for his definitive IP.

Problem : The definitive IP cannot be set currently.

Result :

  • IPs stay configured with DHCP
