It may not be how you used it, but that is how ifplugd (or netplug) is |
| 13 |
supposed to be used with openrc. It detects whether ifplugd or netplug is |
| 14 |
installed when the interface is started up and starts it up to monitor |
| 15 |
the interface using the correct options. It's been that way fr a lot of |
| 16 |
years and was documented, I think in the comments in the net.* scripts. |

Your approach may have worked in the past but it was unsupported, now it |
| 19 |
appears that it doesn't work. |
