Public bug reported:

Unit tests for sysconfig are flawed and incomplete

E.g.:
# Created by cloud-init on instance boot automatically, do not edit.
#
BOOTPROTO=static
DEVICE=eth0
IPV6ADDR=2607:f0d0:1002:0011::2
IPV6INIT=yes
NETMASK=64
NM_CONTROLLED=no
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
'''

Compare this to the doc:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Deployment_Guide/s1-networkscripts-interfaces.html

 IPV6ADDR=address
    where address is the first static, or primary, IPv6 address on an interface.
    The format is Address/Prefix-length. If no prefix length is specified, /64 is assumed. Note that this setting depends on IPV6INIT being enabled. 

NETMASK is a parameter for ipv4.

 NETMASKn=mask
    where mask is the netmask value and the n is expected to be consecutive positive integers starting from 0 (for example, NETMASK0). It is used for configurations with multiple IP addresses on an interface. It can be omitted if there is only one address being configured. 


The tests are also incomplete, lacking several scenarios.
