      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      When a machine has multiple network devices and more than one of them is configured with an IP address, the UI shows just one IP address to connect to:

      This could be confusing, since the shown IP address might not be reachable by the user. See RHEL-69400 as an example.

      What is the impact of this issue to you?

      The user cannot see all the active network devices to connect to, which leads to a confusion that just the one network device is configured.

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      RHEL-10.0-20250113.0
      anaconda-40.22.3.19-1.el10

      How reproducible is this bug?:

      Always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Boot a system with multiple network devices connected to a network with a DHCP server. Do not append ip= or inst.ks= on the kernel command line. Use inst.rdp to enable RDP mode.
      2. When asked, confirm using RDP, provide the user name and password.

      Expected results

      The installer shows IP addresses and domain names for all active network interfaces.

      Actual results

      Only one IP address and domain name is shown, the rest of active addresses are ignored. The user has to check the IP addresses of the other network devices manually in shell.
