Title:
OpenVSwitch Support: no package for `nm-openvswitch`
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Package Version: NA
Issue: Ubuntu NetworkManager packages for Ubuntu 20.04+ lack OVS support.
Expected:
Running the following:
`nmcli con up ovs-mgmt1`
`nmcli connection add type ovs-interface con-name mgmt1 ifname mgmt1 ip4
192.168.16.2/24 gw4 192.168.16.1 master internal`
Should raise the ovs interface(es) defined.
Actual results:
`Connection activation failed: NetworkManager plugin for 'ovs-interface'
unavailable`
`Connection activation failed: NetworkManager plugin for 'ovs-port'
unavailable`
`Connection activation failed: NetworkManager plugin for 'ovs-bridge'
unavailable`
*depending on interface type being raised
Argument:
As of the release of rpm distros {CentOS,RHEL} 8.x there is no standard
method to raise OVS interfaces without resorting to depricated ifscripts. deb
based releases dropped NetworkManager nm-* support for OVS in favor of
networkd. rpm based releases have dropped networkd in favor of NetworkManager.
