Previously, when creating a Team, Bridge, or Bond slave, NetworkManager wrote the Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) of the master connection to the ifcfg file. This was not compatible with the legacy network service that supports only using the device interface name. With this update, NetworkManager attempts to write a device name in addition to the connection UUID, and compatibility with the legacy network service has been improved.
Note that only UUID is used in case NetworkManager is not able to resolve the master connection into a device name. That is currently the case when slave connections are added before the master connection is saved in the nmtui tool.
