If the dhcp server does not send an ipv6 lease IP, dhclient ipv6 process tries to get that ip during 30 seconds. That causes (i can see that via systemd-analyze blame) the startup of the NetworkManager-wait-online service is delayed, delaying the network-online.target I have services depending of this target and that delay causes some troubles to me.

In that case, NetworkManager will always spawn the process in the background. That is regardless whether NetworkManager itself is in the background or not). Anyway, the way NetworkManager spawns this process is of little concern to the user. In fact, when using NetworkManager you usually would be not concerned with dhclient at all. The process is for the most part an implementation detail of how NetworkManager does DHCP. Which problem are you trying to solve? best, Thomas _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
