I got a reply on Fedi basically to that effect, by someone who had recently presented on the subject: https://wybt.net/@tfiebig/113213745122607112 The issue are the routes; With netplan, I just set the route via puppet atm (you could use the funny netplan equivalent of post-up; Don't have it from the top of my head.) For ifupdown, it is just a 'skip the gateway and put the `ip -4 route` statement into a post-up. A reply to that showed how netplan triggers scripts, so both things basically need external commands at the moment. Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
