> I just tested it on Eoan, using systemd 242-6, and the valid__lft and preferred_lft did indeed change to 'forever'.
well that's interesting...I tested with the latest upstream systemd code and i *was* able to reproduce the problem...maybe something reverted the fix since 242. Unless, of course, I messed up my test :-) I'll backport the fix for that and see if it fixes bionic, then retest the latest upstream to make sure it hasn't reverted. > The discussion in the GitHub issue was rather interesting as well. I kind of "agree" that this is a strange thing to do, but I don't think that should be any of systemd's business.. yes, I agree, and it is an entertaining discussion on what systemd should prevent users from doing ;) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1833193 Title: systemd-networkd fails to apply static IPv4 when the static IP is the same as previously configured by DHCP Status in systemd: Fix Released Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In bionic, running systemd 237-3ubuntu10.22 and netplan.io 0.97-0ubuntu1~18.04.1, systemd-networkd fails to configure an interface with a static IPv4 address if the statically confiugred address is the same as the interface already has gotten from DHCP. This will cause the interface to loose its IP address when the DHCP lease exires, even though you've told netplan to configure it as static. I expect systemd-networkd to actually configure an IP address as static, regardless of what address the interface has before from DHCP. # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Release: 18.04 # apt-cache policy systemd systemd: Installed: 237-3ubuntu10.22 # apt-cache policy netplan.io netplan.io: Installed: 0.97-0ubuntu1~18.04.1 A paste of systemd-networkd's debug log when I run "netplan apply" and the interface already has the static IP configured from DHCP. It seems like upon a restart, systemd-networkd will allways add whatever IP config it had before the service stopped, and then apply changes (if any). Since my new config has the same IP as it already had, it does nothing even though the new config has static configuration.
