We did something like this:

The Foreman Server has two NICS, one in the public LAN/VLAN and one in
the deployment VLAN. The latter one has to be created and has to be
available on your VMWare Host.

The VM has to be created with the NIC being in the deployment VLAN. We
had foreman handle DNS and DHCP/PXE on only this VLAN. Also foreman did
the routing, so the machines could reach the internet from the
deployment VLAN.
The machine boots (we did this with the discovery plugin) and gets
provisioned. After the machine is finished, it's NIC is switched from
the deployment VLAN to the VLAN it should be in finally (this has to be
done in the VM configuration in VMware).

Note that foreman no longer has contact to the VM after it's NIC has
changed the VLAN.

I do not understand your question. Does "network config" mean the
foreman provisioning setup or the Vmware VM configuration?

No idea, sorry.
