Is there really no better solution for this than ifdown/ifup ? What is the recommended method to restart all networking services, rather than a select interface?
RHEL can manage this easily: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en- US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Networking_Guide/sec- NetworkManager_and_the_Network_Scripts.html "Although NetworkManager provides the default networking service, Red Hat developers have worked hard to ensure that scripts and NetworkManager cooperate with each other. Administrators who are used to the scripts can certainly continue to use them. We expect both systems to be able to run in parallel and work well together. It is expected that most user shell scripts from previous releases will still work. Red Hat recommends that you test them first." What is the equivalent for Ubuntu / Canonical? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1301015 Title: Networking does not restart To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/1301015/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
