Description

We have been adding secondary NICs to our hosts (for now all VMs). When we rerun puppet, we see that NIC information populated in the facts. We see a new object show up in interfaces/NICs, with the correct interface name. However, there is no other information about the NIC. We would expect to see the MAC, IPV4/6 info, etc. Instead it shows as a new object, with the correct identifier name, however there is no other information displayed about the interface. I also noticed that the interfaces in foreman will show as VirtualE1000, even though in ESX they are set to VMXNET3.

Fact values on host showing the networking information:

Here is the esx configuration showing it is VMXNET3 vs. what Foreman is reporting:
