Thanks so much! I really appreciate the help here. I can confirm that 249.11-0ubuntu3.8 fixes this bug. A VLAN with ActivationPolicy=manual now no longer comes up at boot, as expected, but can be brought up manually with networkctl.

[Test Plan] * On a Jammy machine with an interface named ens3, create the following configs: $ cat > /etc/systemd/network/10-vlan18.netdev << EOF [NetDev] Name=vlan18 Kind=vlan [VLAN] Id=18 EOF $ cat > /etc/systemd/network/20-vlan18.network << EOF [Match] Name=vlan18 [Network] Address=10.10.1.1/24 [Link] ActivationPolicy=manual EOF $ cat > /etc/systemd/network/30-ens3.network << EOF [Match] Name=ens3 [Network] DHCP=ipv4 VLAN=vlan18 EOF * Reboot the machine * On an affected machine, the vlan18@ens3 interface will have a configured IP at boot, despite the ActivationPolicy=manual setting in /etc/systemd/network/20-vlan18.network. On a patched machine, the interface should not have a configured IP. [Where problems could occur] The patch adds a condition where a netdev is not yet ready to be created. Specifically, it makes sure stacked netdevs are not created before their underlying link is activated. If we saw any problems, it would be related to netdev creation. [Original Description] This has been fixed upstream, see Upstream bug: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/22593 Any chance of a backport of the fix to 22.04?
