 Our Puppet configuration management supports four types of network configuration:
 - **auto**: NetworkManager does automatic configuration while respecting local user managed configuration
+- **auto_static_ip**: static NetworkManager connection with IP from DNS and network information from DHCP
 - **managed**: NetworkManger is fully managed via Hiera/Puppet
 - **unmanaged**: network configuration (incl. DNS) is not touched by Puppet
 - **legacy**: Puppet keeps network configuration untouched except for DNS configuration and applying `network::*` Hiera settings
 
 Not all types are supported by all RedHat versions:

 Note that when changing to `auto` all legacy `ifcfg` files for network configuration are removed.
 
+## Automatic Network Configuration with Static IP Address
+
+In a setup where there is just one static IP address which can be resolved via DNS, Puppet can configure a static connection with
+
+```
+networking::setup: auto_static_ip
+```
+
+Note this only works if there is a DHCP server in that network which provides the network mask and the default gateway IP address.

 ## Managed Network Configuration
 
 The network configuration can be fully and fine-grained be managed from Hiera with
