NetworkManager absolutely supports all kinds of network devices,
including Bluetooth, DSL/PPPoE, Infiniband, Bond, Bridge, IP tunnels,
Teamed devices, VLANS, etc. If GNOME software doesn't support it, that's
their decision / a bug. You can use 'nm-connection-editor', the real
connection editor program from NetworkManager directly, to add any
supported type of device.
We specifically don't say anything about /etc/network/* files, because
this is netplan, not ifupdown, and as such ifupdown files are not used
-- we just don't specify what is unused; and neither do most projects.
You sure can install ifupdown back on your system if required, netplan
won't touch anything that is not configured by it in *.yaml files under
/etc/netplan. However, if you have found limitations in the use of
netplan with networkd/NetworkManager, please file separate bugs about
these so we can address them.
** Changed in: netplan.io (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid
