I have some questions about this change.
a) Won't this potentially pollute and overcrowd the landscape server
monitoring page? I vaguely remember cases where landscape-client was
installed on a system with multiple network interfaces and vlans (I
think it was an openstack neutron gateway), and the monitoring page
would just be HUGE, with empty graphs because some interfaces didn't
have an IP. [citation needed] Or is this change only affecting the API
call and its results?
b) Wouldn't it be better to, instead of faking the IP layer with
0.0.0.0, to have an indication that the interface is down, and have that
available in the API as a filter perhaps? This would have to be done in
a backwards compatible way, of course.
