Description Yossi Segev 2020-07-07 07:43:18 UTC
Document URL: 
https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.4/cnv/cnv_node_network/cnv-updating-node-network-config.html#cnv-example-bridge-nncp_cnv-updating-node-network-config


Section Number and Name: 
Example: Linux bridge interface NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy - comment #8


Describe the issue: 
Comment #8 says "Optional. If you do not use dhcp you must specify static IP address for the interface."
This is not true. Setting a static IP address is not mandatory.
The interface can exist and operate without an IP address.


Suggestions for improvement: 
Either remove this comment entirely, or replace it with something in the spirit of "Optional. If you do not use dhcp, you can either set a static IP, or leave the interface without an IP address at all."
