Notable changes include: + +* The MTU setting from an IPv6 neighbor discovery Router Advertisements is + now ignored if applying it would result in invalid configuration. + +* Some configuration options can now be changed without restarting the + daemon. Notably, this applies to 'dns', 'connectivity' and + 'ignore-carrier' settings. + +* The connection activation was made more robust. If an active connection + is reactivated, the device it's active on takes precedence. If an attempt + is made to activate a connection on a different device than it is active on, + the activation proceeds removing the connection from the active device. + +* The device specifiers in configuration files now support negation via + 'except:' match. + +* Devices that only have IPv6 link-local address are no longer assumed to + be connected. + +* nmcli now provides hints and tab-completion for enumeration properties. + +* If the IPv6 interface tokens are set they are honored when creating an + interface identifier for IPv6 addressing. + +* NetworkManager now maintains correct routing configuration when multiple + interfaces are connected to the same network. + +* The management of devices can now be controlled with udev rules. The veth + devices as well as the virtual Ethernet devices of various + virtualization tools (VMWare, VirtualBox, Parallels Workstation) are + now ignored by default. + +* The IPv6 privacy extensions are now enabled by default and handling of + the ip6-privacy sysctl has been improved. + +* Activating a Bond, Bridge or Team device can now optionally activate the + slave connections as well. The behavior is controlled with + 'connection.autoconnect-slaves' property. + +* The platform support code has been refactored, resulting in better + scalability in large configurations. + +* Changes to network interfaces configuration done outside NetworkManager + are now picked up and exposed to the user via NetworkManager API and tools. + +* A connection can now optionally leave externally configured default route + in place instead of overriding it. The behavior is controlled with + 'ipv4.never-default' and 'ipv6.never-default' properties. + +* Multiple crasher and memory leak bugs in the daemon were fixed. + +* Multiple bugs that could cause the client tools to hang or crash were fixed. + +* nmcli allows multiple devices for 'nmcli device disconnect/delete'. + +* Firewall zone is added to firewalld for device-based VPN connections too. + +=============================================== NetworkManager-1.0.2 Overview of changes since NetworkManager-1.0 =============================================== |
