Jul 09 06:14:58 wala10gpu07090226-vm1 systemd[1]: Finished waagent-network-setup.service - Setup network rules for WALinuxAgent.

Distro and WALinuxAgent details (please complete the following information):

• Distro and Version: RHEL-10
• WALinuxAgent version

# waagent -version
WALinuxAgent-2.9.1.1 running on rhel 10.0
Python: 3.12.2
Goal state agent: 2.11.1.4

Additional context

• If set AutoUpdate=n, then reboot VM, cannot see such logs.
• After the above step, if set AutoUpdate=y and "systemctl restart waagent", then "journalctl -u waagent-network-setup.service -b --utc" doesn't print such logs. Then run "systemctl restart waagent-network-setup.service" and then "journalctl -u waagent-network-setup.service -b --utc", can print these logs.

It seems a known issue about python3.12 (https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.12.html#other-language-changes).
The second change like this:

A backslash-character pair that is not a valid escape sequence now generates a SyntaxWarning, instead of DeprecationWarning. For example, re.compile("\d+.\d+") now emits a SyntaxWarning ("\d" is an invalid escape sequence, use raw strings for regular expression: re.compile(r"\d+.\d+")). In a future Python version, SyntaxError will eventually be raised, instead of SyntaxWarning. (Contributed by Victor Stinner in gh-98401.)
