I tested this, and now after restart I only have an Ethernet connection, the wifi - connection has to be established manually. What I was looking for was, that after restart the wifi-connection gets to the "online" state and the Ethernet connection gets to the "ready" state. But thanks for the information anyway. >Do notice that even though >ethernet is now preferred over any other technology, it does not take >the connection from a WiFi in state online (i.e. connectivity to >external Internet checked) if ethernet ends up only in state ready (IP >address acquired). I'm not sure if this was what you were after, though. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: connman [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Jörg Hunsche Gesendet: Mittwoch, 18. Dezember 2013 17:33 An: [email protected] Betreff: intended behaviour of connman after restart Hello, I have an active Ethernet connection and then I connect to a wifi and in this state I shut down the system. When I restart the system the wifi-connection is re-established and the Ethernet connection does not get an IP-address. When I disconnect the wifi-connection the Ethernet connection gets an IP-address and is running. When I again connect the wifi-connection, the wifi-connection is set up and the Ethernet connection is still available. My expectation when restarting the system would be, that the wifi-connection is setup and has the default route, but that the Ethernet connection should be connected too. Here an extract from the documentation why I think that this should be the behavior : http://git.kernel.org/cgit/network/connman/connman.git/tree/doc/overview-api.txt?id=HEAD "The Ethernet devices are always sorted first since they are physically built into the system and will be always present. In cases they are switched off manually they will not be showing in this list. ... For Ethernet the plugging of a cable makes it a favorite." Is the current behavior I am seeing correct, or my expectation? I am using a rather current version of connman.
