When configuring static IP address via cloud-init on Ubuntu operating systems that use the Netplan network configuration tool, if multiple configuration files exist in the /etc/netplan directory, the system will execute them sequentially, which may cause configuration conflicts, thus affecting the effectiveness of network settings.
For Windows 7 and Windows Server 2016 virtual machines created from the cloudbase-init VM template, the system will restart three times after entering the password at startup. Once the restarts are complete, the virtual machine can be used normally.
When creating Windows virtual machines using cloudbase-init templates, configuring static routes and DHCP is not supported, which need to be manually configured after creation.
When configuring Network Device during creating Windows virtual machines from cloud-init templates, if Not configured in cloud-init configuration is selected, the DNS server configuration will not take effect.
When creating Windows cloudbase-init virtual machines, the initial configuration may not take effect due to the virtual machine's certain services starting too quickly. Refer to the Q&A section for methods to resolve this issue.
