Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

All logs and all files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
Description of problem:
There is not prompt message when input invalid character in network setting page via cockpit, it will change to other valid ip randomly, this will cause setting wrong manual ip.
There should be prompt message to prevent setting invalid IP.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
redhat-virtualization-host-4.0-20161206.0
cockpit-ws-122-3.el7.x86_64
NetworkManager-1.4.0-13.el7_3.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHVH 4.0.6 via anaconda.
2. Reboot RHVH and login cockpit, enter Networking page in cockpit
3. Select one NIC em1, enter configure page, set up IPV4/IPV6 as Manual mode
4. Input invalid IP(such as 300.300.300.300) in IPV4/IPV6 settings page, and click "Apply"
Actual results:
In step4, there is not prompt message, and when input 300.300.300.300, it will change to 45.45.45.45
Expected results:
In step4, there should be prompt message to prevent setting invalid IP. If set invalid IP, should not click "Apply"
Additional info:
At the very least we should have some input validation. I just tested setting a manual IP address and I can also insert other characters (e.g. ',') which results in the address '0.0.0.0'.
We have to see which parts should be done in NetworkManager and which ones in Cockpit.
