Was looking to set default values for a few network connection configs like connection.permissions, etc, so that when a new connection is generated (at /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections), it’ll inherit said defaults.
Looked at a handful of places for info…
-
/etc/sysconfig/network/ seems irrelevant for NetworkManager and /etc/sysconfig/network/config particularly says ‘NetworkManager is not using any sysconfig settings’
-
man netconfig seems to have nothing
-
man nmcli doesn’t seem relevant
-
man NetworkManager.conf has a section ‘Specify default values for connections’, which’d seem usable by putting a drop-in into /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/
However, it explains that only some configs are eligible for default values and none of those ones are pertinent to the task. -
Did a web search:
The comment at this related post says systemd-networkd can do this on ubuntu.
But, it appears absent from a stock tumbleweed system, and would it be necessary to add another network service to accomplish this?
Might udev be instrumental/needed here?
What’s the easiest way to do this?
Linux openSUSE Tumbleweed 20240111
Thanks
