USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR PRODUCTION USE!
* nmcli: allow changing "connection.uuid" and "connection.type"
in offline mode and setting the UUID when creating a connection.
* nmcli: accept abbreviations for the UUID with the connection selector
in `nmcli connection $operator uuid $uuid`.
* nmtui now supports editing Wi-Fi WPA-Enterprise, Ethernet with 802.1X
authentication and MACsec connection profiles.
* bond: add "balance-slb" option which implements source load balancing
with "balance-xor" mode and "vlan-srcmac" xmit_hash_policy. In this
mode, NetworkManager configures nftables to prevent loops in the
switch.
* dns: support specifying DNS-over-TLS server name (SNI) for static
name servers. Only works with systemd-resolved plugin.
* Add support of loopback interface and a new connection type "loopback". On D-Bus,
the loopback interface now has the "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Loopback"
interface instead of org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Generic".
Loopback handling is special in that when the NetworkManager profile is
deactivated, the interfaces will still be up and configured with a 127.0.0.1
address.
* loopback: add support of loopback interface and a new connection type
"loopback". On D-Bus, the loopback interface now has the
"org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Loopback" interface instead of
"org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Generic". Loopback handling is special
in that when the NetworkManager profile is deactivated, the interfaces will
still be up and configured with a 127.0.0.1 address.
* Add support of IPv4 ECMP routes. The ECMP routes will get merged
automatically but the user need to configure them as single-hop routes
specifying a valid weight.
* Add support of VTI and VTI6 ip-tunnels. Add a new property "ip-tunnel.fwmark".
* vlan: add support of "vlan.protocol" property to set 802.1Q (default) or
802.1ad.
* firewall: pass "--wait 2" to iptables invocations to handle races with concurrent
calls. This fixes misbehavior with IPv4 shared mode.
* DHCP: expose used DHCPV4 client-id and DHCPv6 DUID in lease information.
* VPN: support new "ipv[46].auto-route-ext-gw" option to suppress adding direct
route to external VPN gateway.
* ovs: add support of "ovs-dpdk.n-rxq-desc", "ovs-dpdk.n-txq-desc",
"ovs-interface.ofport-request" and "ovs-port.trunks" properties.
* Add support of "other_config" for OVS bridge, port or interface. This
property is not supported by nmcli.
* nmtui now supports editing Wi-Fi WPA-Enterprise, Ethernet with 802.1X
authentication and MACsec connection profiles.
* nmcli: allow changing "connection.uuid" and "connection.type"
in offline mode and setting the UUID when creating a connection.
* nmcli: accept abbreviations for the UUID with the connection selector
in `nmcli connection $operator uuid $uuid`.
* Many internal improvements and bug fixes.
The following changes were backported to 1.40.x releases between 1.40.0
and 1.40.10 are also present in NetworkManager-1.42:
- 1.40.10
* Fix the evaluation of the autoconnect retries.
* nm-cloud-setup now preserves addresses added externally.
* Ensure that dnsmasq is stopped after changing the dns backend and
restarting the service.
* Fix honoring an explicit DHCPv6 DUID with dhclient.
* Other various fixes.
- 1.40.8
* Fixed a bug that caused devices (MACsec in particular) to be stuck in
UNAVAILABLE state and not transition to DISCONNECTED if the carrier was
ready too early.
* Improved interoperability of MACsec with some Aruba switches by allowing
CKN shorter than 64 characters.
* Fixed an assertion failure when restarting NetworkManager with MACsec
links configured.
* Fixed a possible DHCP helper crash when handling failure to connect to
D-Bus.
* Corrected calculation of expiration time for items configured from IPv6
neighbor discovery messages.
* Various fixes for platforms that don't allow unaligned memory access.
- 1.40.6
* team: also set empty port configuration so teamd
knows about the port.
* team: restore port configuration after teamd respawn.
- 1.40.4
* dhcp: revert restarting DHCP when MAC address changes,
for example during a bond fail over.
* various documentation fixes.
* fix non-exported ABI in libnm which was wrongly present
in the header files but unusable so far.
* ifcfg-rh: fix writing ethtool pause settings to file.
* core: set "proto static" for manual routing rules configured
by NetworkManager.
* Various minor bugfixes.
- 1.40.2
* Ensure that resolv.conf gets updated when the configuration changes.
* Fix setting as bond primary an interface that doesn't exist yet when the
bond is activated.
* The number of autoconnect retries is now accounted independently for each
device when there are profiles with multi-connect=multiple.
* Don't print duplicate entries in the output of "NetworkManager
--print-config"
* Fix the ifcfg-rh plugin to properly read infiniband P-Key connection
profiles without an explicit interface name.
* Allow the removal of a bond port connection profile from the bond via
nmcli.
* Fix race condition during the activation of veth profiles when the peer
already exists.
* Decline the DHCPv6 lease if all addresses fail IPv6 duplicate address
detection (DAD).
* Wait that devices get carrier before trying to resolve the system hostname
on them via DNS.
* Fix race condition during the initial activation of OVS interfaces.
* Profiles generated by nm-initrd-generator now have lower than default
priority.
* Fix error when adding many SR-IOV virtual functions (VFs).
