configuration: Network Manager

• Wired Networks are Unmanaged by Default.

• As of Debian 6.0 "Squeeze", NetworkManager does not manage any interface defined in /etc/network/interfaces by default.

• Unmanaged devices means NetworkManager doesn't handle those network devices. This occurs when two conditions are met:

• The file /etc/network/interfaces contains anything about the interface, even:

  allow-hotplug eth0
  iface eth0 inet dhcp
  

  And /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf contains:

  [main]
  plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
  
  [ifupdown]
  managed=false
  

• Enabling Interface Management

• If you want NetworkManager to handle interfaces that are enabled in /etc/network/interfaces:

  Set managed=true in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf.

• Restart NetworkManager: sudo service network-manager restart

• Starting with Debian 11 (bullseye), use: sudo service NetworkManager restart
