After crushing the logs a bit more, I found a few interesting things and also have a few open questions. Thank you very much for your `date` timestamps in between the different steps, those are very helpful in linking the order of events!
Open questions: 1) The "udevadm-monitor.txt" log shows that there is a manual "/etc/systemd/network/10-enP53p0s0.link" configuration file, while all other interfaces make use of "/usr/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link". Can you show us what is inside this file? 2) In comment #22 you show the output of "networkctl": root@ilabg13:~# netplan apply root@ilabg13:~# networkctl status enP53p0s0.171 --no-pager ? 7: enP53p0s0.171 Link File: n/a Network File: n/a Type: vlan State: degraded (pending) HW Address: 82:0c:9b:c9:78:f8 => I wonder why "Link File: n/a" and "Network File: n/a" is set.. The Link state is still "(pending)", would you mind executing the same steps again and re-executing the "networkctl status enP53p0s0.171 --no-pager" a bit later again (like 10sec after and 30sec after)? 3) Does the workaround from https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/15445#issuecomment-776856604 work for you? E.g.: # netplan apply - wait 15 sec # networkctl reload - wait 15 sec # networkctl renew enP53p0s0.171 - wait 15 sec # networkctl reconfigure enP53p0s0.171 - wait 15 sec # networkctl reconfigure enP53p0s0.171 - wait 30 sec # networkctl status enP53p0s0.171 --no-pager # ip a === Findings from comment #33 (journalctl_udev_monitor.txt) === You executed "netplan apply" between 08:10:29 - 08:10:59 and it looks like systemd-networkd found the correct netplan-*.network configuration and applied it (assigned the IP) at 08:10:57.

That confirms that systemd-networkd apparently already successfully assigned the IP, as shown by the logs. => Could you please execute the same steps again, but wait some 30 sec after "netplan apply" and then execute "networkctl" and "ip a", to see if the IP is indeed assigned already?

It looks like the IP was successfully assigned by systemd- networkd after all, but it took a while (for whatever reason).
