Description of problem:
Now that the Subscription Manager addon is always present in Initial Setup GUI the Network spoke should be be also always present as the Subscription Manager addon needs network connectivity to function.
Without the network spoke the users might not be able to register due to no connectivity any by not having any way to enable it.
Possible scenarios where this might happen:
* DVD installations don't need network connectivity so network is not enabled by default
* network environment changes after the installation has been finished but before Initial Setup has been run
- this also applies to stuff like "OEM installs" where one party installs the system in their environment but another party is expected to finish the configuration via Initial Setup in their own environment
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. install RHEL 7.2 from DVD
2. do not enable networking during the installation
3. reboot
Actual results:
Initial Setup shows up, including the Subscription Manager addon, but without the Network Spoke. As networking is not enabled and Network spoke is not present it is not possible to successfully register.
Expected results:
Network spoke is present in Initial setup and can be used to enable networking.
