Sorry, this is systemd 219. networkd exits when it is idle. It is restarted by netlink events however should something change in the network state, and it hence should be without loss. Are you saying the automatic restarting doesn't work, and it loses events? Yes, that’s right. Even when pulling/reinserting the ethernet plug, networkd doesn’t come back to life, while the kernel makes a note of it, as shown in dmesg. networkd’s status remains «inactive (dead)», with no mention of loss of connectivity in its journal or any events sent over the dbus interface. When I add DHCP to the .network config, loss of connectivity is noted by networkd, and also it will not go «inactive (dead)» after 30s. Current networkd versions only exit when there's no network interface besides "lo" around. Closing this bug hence. |

When a systemd.network is set up to use a static IP, and DHCP is disabled, systemd-networkd shuts down exactly 30s or so after it has been launched and after it has configured the link. Is this intentional? I’ve been wanting to monitor connectivity through the DBus interface, and have noticed that on machines with fixed IPs, this won’t work, because networkd prompty shuts down. ● systemd-networkd.service - Network Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-networkd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: inactive (dead) since Di 2015-06-02 20:57:48 CEST; 167ms ago Docs: man:systemd-networkd.service(8) Process: 4027 ExecStart=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-networkd (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 4027 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Status: "Shutting down..."
