As we demoted netcf and it doesn't work we can drop the further netcf tasks in Ubuntu in Won't Fix. It is not that important to Ubuntu to have it working as discussed before it would a) pull in ifupdown and suggest it is well supported (which it is no more). The Debian bug is open and would fix

We had a discussion on this: I have to beg your pardon for all of the Ubuntu community, but we never intended to support write-managing through libvirt in Bionic. Libvirt iface-* never supported networkd or NetworkManager. To manage networks with different backends there is netplan.io. Adding a

Hi rbasak, almost right - just missing a slight twist. Yes to all you said until "leaving the situation as-is for stable releases is appropriate since use case 1 above is far less serious than a potential regression in use case 3." I think we all ack on >=18.10 to select the udev backend and be

Thanks for your reply Nicolas, so even for you if udev backend would work it would be preferred (full view of the network). We are evaluating if udev works well for the read-only part and I discussed with upstream how to enable/disable as well as on the approach in general. -- You received this

I tried to select an interface in virt-manager and the desired interface didn't show in the pop-up menu. But it's true that the name can be entered in the free-form dialog.

Networks are configured through net-* commands (and respective APIs) and they all work. This is what is commonly used by libvirt users and solutions depending on libvirt. The scope of iface-* commands is to manage the Host network interfaces. This is not really what we'd want libvirt to do. You

This didn't fully work even pre netplan, in fact it is separate. On my partially E/N/I partially NetworkManager system only the former are accessible to netcf. So this functionality from libvirts POV was reduced for quite a while. While netcf itself can be considered really broken atm. That is w
