Some of my servers have a back-end nic that has static config defined, |
| 25 |
and i use netplug or ifplugd for that to bring the iface up and down |
| 26 |
based on link -- link detection != auto-configuration, imo. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Suffice to say, networkmanager is not a reasonable means to determine |
| 29 |
link state for oldnet. Newnet, well, all of that gets handled outside |
| 30 |
of openrc's config anyhow so... |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
But this is getting a little beyond the original point of the thread.. :) |
