Description of problem:
Subscription manager sends values like "Unknown" as an ip address value on RHEL 5, and these values are directly set as the host's interface's IP. As fact uploaded hosts are saved without validation, these cause errors later for things like remote execution which expects to find valid IP's in the interfaces.
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have an interface on an el5 box w/out an IP
2. subscription-manager facts | grep ip shows 'Unknown' for that interface
3. Register with subscription manager
Actual results:
Host interface has 'Unknown' as IP
Expected results:
Host interface has no IP
Verified on 6.3.0 snap 14.0
Registered a host with a custom fact setting the ip address of "Unknown". Host was created with an interface without an ip address as expected.
