Team,

We understand Network Manager is good for desktop but not servers.
But given the stability NetworkManager is bringing in and ease of use across different operating systems, i assume users are not restricted not to use NetworkManager for servers. The reason being we going with network manager as explained is to reuse the code for all distros.

Note : Netplan is not present/installed in our ubuntu. So by default we are expecting network manager to work.

root@57fb2571ae8a:~# ls -l /etc | grep netplan
root@57fb2571ae8a:~#

If we need to start using netplan, probably we have to re-write the code to configure yaml files which can be understood by netplan.

So as a workaround, we would like to understand why network manager is failing to manage the devices?
This is definitely to do with open issue, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1638842

Let me know if more data is needed for analysis, Thanks
