Networking and servers • Re: Network Manager fallback to zeroconf

Upstream there is some work in progress,
see https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkM ... ssues/1555
and https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkM ... uests/1980
For my use case (P2P Ethernet connection using ipv6 local link to a headless Raspi)

Code:

sudo nmcli connection modify "Wired connection 1" ipv4.dhcp-timeout infinity
works. ipv4.dhcp-timeout infinity seems to prevent deactivation of the device.

my résumé:
The default behaviour of MS-Windows and many Linux systems before NetworkManager was automatic assignment of a link local address after DHCP failure.
Netmanager currently requires advanced skill to reestablish this expected behaviour.
Such a change should be well documented.
