Description

When submitting a new host with a subnet that is defined in Foreman, but not in the DHCP server's dhcpd.conf, the error that is displayed is:

Unable to save
Create DHCP Settings for pspr-d1db01.blah.com task failed with the following error: 400 Bad Request

The proxy log reveals the real problem:
E, [2014-03-21T10:22:00.509884 #20117] ERROR -- : No Subnet detected for: "172.26.92.0"

Can this error be displayed to the user in the UI?
