It detects and configures network devices as they appear, as well as creating virtual network devices\&. +.PP +To configure low\-level link settings independently of networks, see +\fBsystemd.link\fR(5)\&. +.PP +\fBsystemd\-networkd\fR +will create network devices based on the configuration in +\fBsystemd.netdev\fR(5) +files, respecting the [Match] sections in those files\&. +.PP +\fBsystemd\-networkd\fR +will manage network addresses and routes for any link for which it finds a +\&.network +file with an appropriate [Match] section, see +\fBsystemd.network\fR(5)\&. For those links, it will flush existing network addresses and routes when bringing up the device\&. Any links not matched by one of the +\&.network +files will be ignored\&. It is also possible to explicitly tell +systemd\-networkd +to ignore a link by using +\fIUnmanaged=yes\fR +option, see +\fBsystemd.network\fR(5)\&. +.PP +When +systemd\-networkd +exits, it generally leaves existing network devices and configuration intact\&. This makes it possible to transition from the initrd and to restart the service without breaking connectivity\&. This also means that when configuration is updated and +systemd\-networkd +is restarted, netdev interfaces for which configuration was removed will not be dropped, and may need to be cleaned up manually\&. +.PP +\fBsystemd\-networkd\fR +may be introspected and controlled at runtime using +\fBnetworkctl\fR(1)\&. +.SH "CONFIGURATION FILES" +.PP +The configuration files are read from the files located in the system network directory +/usr/lib/systemd/network, the volatile runtime network directory +/run/systemd/network +and the local administration network directory +/etc/systemd/network\&. +.PP +Networks are configured in +\&.network +files, see +\fBsystemd.network\fR(5), and virtual network devices are configured in +\&.netdev +files, see +\fBsystemd.netdev\fR(5)\&. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.PP +\fBnetworkctl\fR(1), +\fBsystemd\fR(1), +\fBsystemd.link\fR(5), +\fBsystemd.network\fR(5), +\fBsystemd.netdev\fR(5), +\fBsystemd-networkd-wait-online.service\fR(8), +\fBsystemd-network-generator.service\fR(8) |
