Hi all,
so I invested quite some time to using the NetworkManager to configure the
network settings.
I'm using a go library: github.com/Wifx/gonetworkmanager for this.
My network configurations now end up in a directory
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections (I can see files with the name
"{connection-id}.nmconnection"
However the changes aren't applied. If I run:
systemctl restart systemd-networkd
The network settings don't change (Both network devices were set to DHCP). (By
the way ... where can I see the default configuration?)
However if I reboot the box, I can see my changes applied ... until I run the
"systemctl restart systemd-networkd" again, because then it switches back to
the dhcp settings.
Any tips on how I can apply my changes without rebooting?
Chris

The OpenWRT wiki has a section on porting UCI to different linux distributions
[1], but you can probably skip that completely. Searching for UCI in the recipe
index [2] yields a result from the meta-openwrt [3] layer. I would start with
adding that layer and using the UCI recipe from there.
