Long story short, I am refactoring an application I had originally written for Raspbian. One of the features is the ability to modify the devices network settings (either use DHCP or set a static IP).
When refactoring this for the Begalebone, I was running into weird issues that I assume were happening because of conman. After many hours I stumbled into installing DHCPCD5. I then added eth0 to NetworkInterfaceBlacklist in /etc/conman/main.conf I modified /etc/network/interfaces to be # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) # Please note that this file is written to be used with dhcpcd # For static IP, consult /etc/dhcpcd.conf and 'man dhcpcd.conf' # Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d: source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d auto lo iface lo inet loopback Then, programatically, I was able to switch between dhcp and static settings as I expected with my application. I then noticed in /var/log/syslog that I was getting a *TON* of logged messages related to can0 and can1. I added can0 and can1 to conman/main.conf NetworkInterfaceBlacklist I added denyinterfaces can0 can1 in /etc/dhcpcd.conf I thought I had this resolved after the two steems above but it seems that is not the case. What else can I do to keep this behavior from occurring? The issue is causing a noticeable lag when SSH'ed into my beaglebone or using the web interface I am running on it. Not to mention the file space it is consuming. If DHCPCD is not a viable candidate, how can I get more predictable behavior out of conman? (Issues I was running into included changing settings in /network/interfaces did not alsways respond as expected, issues with configuring a fallback static IP when DHCP failed, etc.) BTW I am running the Debian 8.7 IoT image (need it in order to run mongodb on the beaglebone) -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
