Thanks for your testing and detailed analysis! So IIUC the connection works as expected, but only after reloading the connection profiles; it doesn't show up at the time it is expected, right?
Does running 'nmcli connection reload' after the connection profile for the VPN connection (tun2?) got written, make it show up in the NM daemon? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1998207 Title: netplan network-manager plugin tries to save temporary connections Status in netplan: Triaged Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When creating an OpenVPN connection, a temporal connection called tunN is created.
