Sorry for the delay; I need to re-test this again with upstream code to verify it does reproduce there (or not) before working to backport any fix.

This will cause the interface to loose its IP address when the DHCP lease exires, even though you've told netplan to configure it as static. I expect systemd-networkd to actually configure an IP address as static, regardless of what address the interface has before from DHCP. # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Release: 18.04 # apt-cache policy systemd systemd: Installed: 237-3ubuntu10.22 # apt-cache policy netplan.io netplan.io: Installed: 0.97-0ubuntu1~18.04.1 A paste of systemd-networkd's debug log when I run "netplan apply" and the interface already has the static IP configured from DHCP. It seems like upon a restart, systemd-networkd will allways add whatever IP config it had before the service stopped, and then apply changes (if any). Since my new config has the same IP as it already had, it does nothing even though the new config has static configuration.
