Last modified: 2016-11-09 11:45:05 UTC
NetworkManager.service ignores ifcfg lines which contains comments (key=value # comment) while network.service handles them as well. DEVICE=ens7 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=no # foo This config keeps the NIC down when network.service in enabled. When NetworkManager.service is enabled, it turns it up on boot. NetworkManager 1.0.12 Fedora 23
