[netcf-devel] feature request: control host-wide configuration

I've been bitten by letting users set GATEWAY per interface.
It may sometimes be useful, but it mostly opens the door for a lot of
mess, as only one "random" GATEWAY gets used.

What I should have really done is let users control the system-wide
GATEWAY, sitting in (initscript's) /etc/sysconfig/network. Other
system-wide config may be useful too.

It does not seem that netcf can do that in its interface-centric API. Do
you agree that it should?

Dan.
