Comment 6 for bug 1588547

Thanks for the information, Jay.

Most of the poor behavior here seems to be due to the fact that curtin replicates the bond parameters for alias interfaces, which is just wrong.

As for the hardware address being in the configuration: if I remember correctly, we added the hardware address here due to a bug. (If the bond comes up with an inconsistent hardware address, the MAC seen by the DHCP request can be inconsistent, etc?) If you reconfigure the bond on a deployed node to no longer be a bond, that may be undefined behavior in MAAS which we were trying to prevent.
