Support for External Puppet Servers in Foreman 1.12?

In Foreman 1.11, there was a way through the UI to add external Puppet
Masters. I can't seem to find that in the interface anymore. Is there at
least a way to use Hammer for that? I need to have my nodes use my own
external Puppet Server 2 instance rather than the one built-in to Foreman.

Typically you install a smart proxy alongside the Puppet Server, then
add the smart proxy under Infrastructure > Smart proxies.

More information on smart proxies is at
Foreman :: Manual,
packages are available in our regular repositories.
Foreman :: Manual contains
information on configuring puppet.yml.
