+    <title>Description</title>
+
+    <para><command>systemd-networkd</command> is a system service that
+    manages networks. It detects and configures network devices as
+    they appear, as well as creating virtual network devices.</para>
+
+    <para>To configure low-level link settings independently of
+    networks, see
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.link</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
+
+    <para><command>systemd-networkd</command> will create network devices based
+    on the configuration in
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.netdev</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+    files, respecting the [Match] sections in those files.</para>
+
+    <para><command>systemd-networkd</command> will manage network addresses and
+    routes for any link for which it finds a <filename>.network</filename> file
+    with an appropriate [Match] section, see
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+    For those links, it will flush existing network addresses and routes when
+    bringing up the device. Any links not matched by one of the
+    <filename>.network</filename> files will be ignored. It is also possible to
+    explicitly tell <filename>systemd-networkd</filename> to ignore a link by
+    using <varname>Unmanaged=yes</varname> option, see
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+    </para>
+
+    <para>When <filename>systemd-networkd</filename> 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
+    <filename>systemd-networkd</filename> is restarted, netdev interfaces for which configuration was removed
+    will not be dropped, and may need to be cleaned up manually.</para>
+
+    <para><command>systemd-networkd</command> may be introspected and controlled at runtime using
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>networkctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
+    </para>
+  </refsect1>
+
+  <refsect1><title>Configuration Files</title>
+    <para>The configuration files are read from the files located in the
+    system network directory <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>,
+    the volatile runtime network directory
+    <filename>/run/systemd/network</filename> and the local administration
+    network directory <filename>/etc/systemd/network</filename>.</para>
+
+    <para>Networks are configured in <filename>.network</filename>
+    files, see
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.network</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+    and virtual network devices are configured in
+    <filename>.netdev</filename> files, see
+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.netdev</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
