Hi All,
I'd like to do an if statement in my template to resolve the proper gateway
address and subnet mask based on what the @host.ip is.
Here's a provisioning template I have:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<specs>
<ComputerName><%= @host.shortname -%></ComputerName>
<IPAddress><%= @host.ip -%></IPAddress>
<SubnetMask>255.255.255.0</SubnetMask>
<Gateway>192.168.0.1</Gateway>
<DNS>192.168.0.1</DNS>
<AdapterName>Ethernet</AdapterName>
<AdapterDNSSuffix>contoso.net</AdapterDNSSuffix>
</specs>
Basically i have a few subnets that this template will be hopefully used
for.
for example: for @host.ip, if it falls between a certain range I want the
subnet mask to be say, 255.255.0.0 and the gateway to be 192.168.0.2, and a
different mask and gateway IP for another subnet, etc.
Is it possible to build that kind of logic into the provisioning template,
and if so, are there any examples?

See TemplateWriting - Foreman
You can use if statements and some logic, but why not just use Subnets
in Foreman? You can already create a subnet and set all those values
and just reference e.g. <%= @host.subnet.gateway %> in your template.

Thanks stephen, that looks like exactly where I want to build my logic
from.
Apologies, pretty newb at Foreman and its inner workings.

No problem, for CentOS/RHEL we actually will configure all the network
stuff for you, but it's pretty basic for SuSE. It'd be really useful if
someone would convert the kickstart network snippet[1] into however
AutoYAST does it.

address and subnet mask based on what the @host.ip is.
Here’s a provisioning template I have:
