I understand your point, I guess this is for people who don't add multiple connection and instead edit the default one when they add/remove IPs and to validate the gateway before they submit. However, my point is, if you add multiple subnet, you can't re-order them so the gateway which is not 0.0.0.0 is set first. Consider this setup: 192.168.1.100/24 via 0.0.0.0 192.168.2.100/24 via 0.0.0.0 192.168.3.100/24 via 192.168.3.1 I'd have to delete the 2 first subnet and re-add them at the bottom if I'd like to get access to my gateway, else I would get a route to the device instead of the router. Another way would be to allow NULL gateways which would allow not to set the default route for a subnet. _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
