Excerpt from Clint Byrum's comment #146 > Excerpts from Mike Perrin's message of Mon May 23 20:28:52 UTC 2011: > On a functional level perhaps it is worth considering whether Network > Manager, on stopping, should simply leave the interfaces as currently > configured instead of taking them down. I can make the argument that > Network Manager is a tool to make it easy for the user to control > network interfaces, but Network Manager is not the owner of those > interfaces, the system and user are. If the user makes a connection > using Network Manger and then disables NM, why shouldn't the interface > stay up until the user or a shutdown sequence takes it down? > > Mike thats a great point and I think would be a design change for NM. > It might then be best to bring that up with the upstream developers. > > As it stands now, NM does in fact own a network interface that it is > set to manage, and so, we must architect the system around that. -------------------- Bug (enhancement request) https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650925 submitted 2011-05-24 01:05:57 UTC
