Description of problem: Given registering a system "RHEL6.8 Snapshot4 variant Server" using proxy Firsboot does not remember a value of a field "I will register with:" when an error with connection to a server occured. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEL6.8 Snapshot4 variant Server How reproducible: each time. Steps to Reproduce: Given Firstboot running at RHEL6.8 Snapshot4 - variant Server I clicked "Proxy Setup" at "Choose Service" dialog then proxy dialog appeared. When I checked "I would like to connect via HTTP proxy" and I checked "Use Authentication with HTTP Proxy" and I filled wrong "Proxy Name" and I clicked "Close" then a dialog was closed. When I clicked "Forward" and I filled "I will register with:" with a value "subscription.rhsm.stage.redhat.com" and I clicked "Forward" then an error window with message "Unable to reach the server at ...." appeared. When I clicked "OK" and I clicked "Back" and I clicked "Proxy setup" then a window "Proxy Configuration" appeared. When I clicked "Close" and I clicked "Forward" then firstboot displayed a value "subscription.rhsm.redhat.com" instead of the value I had entered before.
The decision that was made was that when you back (click the back button) out of the subscription-manager firstboot module that values will not be persisted until after successful registration. As such this is working as designed.
