Description

In Azure it is possible to see the same interface identifier which in Foreman needs to be unique. Networking wise it's perfectly valid to have the same MAC address in multiple separate networks. However, Foreman doesn't appear to handle this well.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2088782 has more information.

Actually, the issue isn't duplicate MACs (which things like bridges can also have) but duplicate interface identifiers.

Sorry for the update spam. I misread some things. The original analysis was mostly correct.
