      To improve the UX and data validation, I suggest using the dedicated <f:number> tag instead of the generic <f:textbox> tag for numeric input fields.

      See the example below:

          <f:advanced>
        <f:entry title="${%Max number of VMs online}" field="maxOnlineSlaves" description="0 means unlimited.">
            <!-- <f:textbox clazz="required number"/> -->
            <f:number clazz="required number" default="0" min="0" max="2147483647"/>
        </f:entry>
        <f:entry title="${%Template Instance Cap}" field="instanceCap" description="0 means unlimited.">
            <!-- <f:textbox clazz="required number" default="0"/> -->
            <f:number clazz="required number" default="0" min="0" max="2147483647"/>
        </f:entry>
    </f:advanced>
