Description of problem:
virt-manager shows wrong status for DHCP mode in  'Network Interface' page

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
virt-manager-1.4.0-2.el7.noarch
libvirt-2.0.0-10.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-27.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In host, we have an active network interface: eno1 using dhcp ip address.

# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eno1 
DEVICE="eno1"
HWADDR="44:37:e6:61:36:63"
ONBOOT="yes"
BOOTPROTO="dhcp"----------->using dhcp protocol

2. Check network interface information via virt-manager.
Launch virt-manager-->click 'Edit'-->select 'Connection Details'-->turn to  'Network Interfaces' page.

Actual results:
In 'IPv4 Configuration' page, it shows eno1 using static ip address.
Mode: Static
Address: xx.xx.xx.xx/22
Please see detail in screenshot, thanks.

Expected results:
Should show configuration for 'DHCP' mode correctly.

    virtManager/interface: detect whether IP address comes from DHCP server

Comment 4 zhoujunqin 2017-03-14 08:53:25 UTC
I can reproduce this bug with package:
virt-manager-1.4.0-2.el7.noarch

Then try to verify this bug with new build:
virt-manager-1.4.1-1.el7.noarch
libvirt-3.1.0-2.el7.x86_64

Steps:
1. Env setup:
Delete eno1 in the Edit->Host Details->Network Interface
Click "Stop Interface" and "Delete Interface" button in the bottom of left.

2. Launch virt-manager: 
# virt-manager

3. Click Edit->Connection Details
	
4. Click Network Interfaces tab on "QEMU/KVM Connection Details" dialogue.	      

5. Click + button, select interface type as 'Ethernet', click Forward button.
	
6. Select start mode as 'hotplug', enable activate now, choose "eno1" in
"Choose an unconfigured interface", Choose IP settings: IPv4: DHCP, Click Finish button.

Result:
eno1 network interface shows on left side with configuration:

Ethernet eno1:
MAC: 10:60:4b:7a:90:e6
Status: Active
Start mode: hotpulg
In use by: - 
IPv4 Configuration
Mode: DHCP ---------------->correct
Address: xx.xx.xx.xx/22

Since virt-manager can show configuration for 'DHCP' mode correctly, move this bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.

Comment 5 zhoujunqin 2017-03-14 09:36:51 UTC
Add one more step for Comment 4.

7.Stop interface eno1 by click "Stop Interface" button, then check interface mode again, it keeps in "DHCP".

So keeps bug in VERIFIED status.
