Currently, users have no means to disable optimization flags if they are harmful to their networking cards.
This bug is not about the complete integration with oVirt (requested below), but rather a request to let a local admin control ethtool_opts from within vdsm.conf (via ifcfg and iproute2 alike)
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1044033 +++
Description of problem:
Out of the box rhev vdsm doesn't support ethtool_opts field
According to Dan Williams (NetworkManager) seems to indicate that ifcfg file configuration is not required but it will still be the preferred method to embed configuration for persistence even within RHEL7
From a previous BZ this issue has been made apparent.

Upstream feature reference:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Network_Custom_Properties
Because it can't necessarily be assumed that each host within RHEV will have the same network cards the ethool_opts setting needs to be per host specific.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEV 3.2
