Comment 0 for bug 1761294

I deployed Xenial in this machine with MAAS. After deployment i had re-configured interfaces manually (on /etc/network/interfaces), and removed /etc/network/interfaces.d. At some point, I upgraded the machine from Xenial to Bionic, and everything was working just fine with /e/n/i.

About 2/3 weeks ago, I dist-upgraded bionic for the latest packages, and after reboot, networking didn't come up.

To recover the machine, what i did is:

1. From the console, bring up the interfaces.
2. Brought up eno1 manually & added an IP address manually (ip addr add)
3. Configured netplan interfaces
4. Run sudo netplan apply with the following config:

network:
    version: 2
    renderer: networkd
    ethernets:
        eno1:
            dhcp4: no
            dhcp6: no
            addresses: [192.168.1.13/24]
            gateway4: 192.168.1.1
            nameservers:
                addresses: [8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4]
        usb0:
            dhcp4: no
    bridges:
        br0:
            interfaces: [usb0]
            dhcp4: no
            addresses: [10.90.90.1/24]
            parameters:
                stp: false
                forward-delay: 0
                max-age: 0

5. Interfaces dont get configured correctly:

1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo

    link/ether c4:d9:87:5b:42:62 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

6. on reboot, the machine goes back to have no networking again, at all.
