Stop using the IP given by the DHCP server as a static IP

# hostname {{ inventory_hostname }} not found in staticips
# configured based on ip from dhcp during ansible run
{# FIXME: This is hacky, just taking what we got from DHCP and making it static #}

auto {{ ansible_default_ipv4.interface }}
iface {{ ansible_default_ipv4.interface }} inet static
	address {{ ansible_default_ipv4.address }}

Using the IP handed out by DHCP as a static IP seems really bad.

for the case of not found in staticips, how about: iface {{ ansible_default_ipv4.interface }} inet dhcp
