Hello this is related to an issue I am experiencing on Manjaro. I have raised the issue here: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/systemd-networkd-reports-device-as-unmanaged/167912
To restate the content of that post: My networking configuration file: # /etc/systemd/network/wired.network[Match]Name=en* [Network]DHCP=yes After system boot, I run networkctl and get IDX LINK TYPE OPERATIONAL SETUP 1 lo looback carrier unmanaged 2 enp2s0 ether off unmanaged I increased log verbosity to debug and see enp2s0: Saved new link: ifindex=2, iftype=ETHER(1), kind=n/a enp2s0: Saved original MTU 1500 (min: 68, max:9194) enp2s0: Saved permanent hardware address: 00:00:de:ad:be:ef enp2s0: Saved IPv6 link-local address generation mode: eui64 enp2s0: Flags change: +MULTICAST +BROADCAST enp2s0: udev initialized link enp2s0: Found driver: r8169 enp2s0: Link state is up-to-date enp2s0: State changed: pending -> initialized enp2s0: Unmanaging interface enp2s0: State changed: initialized -> unmanaged Those last two lines are the concerning ones. I don't know why the interface is set to unmanaged. Is there any way to get networkd to print why it's reaching that case? Thanks, -- *Ben Little *(he/they) https://benlittle.dev
