    Description

      Description of problem: relevant doc [link|https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.12/installing/installing_bare_metal_ipi/ipi-install-installation-workflow.html ]

      In the link above:
      2.Configure the baremetal network:
      $ sudo nohup bash -c "
          nmcli con down \"$PUB_CONN\"
          nmcli con delete \"$PUB_CONN\"
          # RHEL 8.1 appends the word \"System\" in front of the connection, delete in case it exists
          nmcli con down \"System $PUB_CONN\"
          nmcli con delete \"System $PUB_CONN\"
          nmcli connection add ifname baremetal type bridge con-name baremetal
          nmcli con add type bridge-slave ifname \"$PUB_CONN\" master baremetal
          pkill dhclient;dhclient baremetal
      "

      Its good to add at least a note that say: if your interface connected to a switch it's good to check that there is no bpdu gourd on the switch interface or disable stp on baremetal bridge:  nmcli connection add ifname baremetal type bridge con-name baremetal bridge.stp no
