[Desktop-packages] [Bug 979372] Re: When changing from DHCP to DHCP (addresses only) please reconfigure the interface without an unnecessary downup
Triaged / Wishlist. If you could open a bug report upstream with the information about exactly what you expect NetworkManager to do when the settings are changed (then report back here with a link to the bug), this would help greatly in eventually having this implemented ;) For how to file a bug at GNOME for NetworkManager; please see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. When filing the bug, use the NetworkManager product, which can be found under Platform: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?classification=Platform ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979372 Title: When changing from DHCP to DHCP (addresses only) please reconfigure the interface without an unnecessary downup Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: To reproduce: 1.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 979372] Re: When changing from DHCP to DHCP (addresses only) please reconfigure the interface without an unnecessary downup
I just tried to reproduce this. In my case the interface was not downupped and the new settings were not applied when I edited the live connection. To get the new settings applied I had manually to dis-and- re-enable the interface. But the important thing is that it still takes a downup to activate new settings. It's a legitimate request (that new settings be applied with downupping) but it's difficult to implement and I wouldn't expect it to be implemented soon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/979372 Title: When changing from DHCP to DHCP (addresses only) please reconfigure the interface without an unnecessary downup Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: To reproduce: 1.
