Device-Aliases:
NICs:
User can categorize the NICs in the hardware as control-plane nics or dataplane nics. In each category he can have one or more NICs. For example, he can define ctrl_nic1, ctrl_nic2, ctrl_nic3, and data_nic1, data_nic2, data_nic3, etc. It is better to use names that are self-explanatory - for example, if you have a separate NIC for PXE, name it as pxe_nic. This categorization will be referred in the host-profiles. For every NIC defined, the below information can be configured.
