GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 690352
NM isn't aware about addresses not configured by itself
Last modified: 2012-12-17 17:20:03 UTC
When IP address is preconfigured on interface before NM starts or manually configured when NM is running, NM doesn't show this address in Gnome/KDE GUI or nmcli. NetworkManager-0.9.7.0-9.git20121004.fc18.x86_64

Accepting addresses from kernel is currently not supported and is subject to temporary connection support. This won't be supported before temporary connections.
