Description suresh kumar 2019-04-19 17:36:06 UTC 
Description of problem:

Customer has a requirement of restarting NetworkManager. But it created issues like creating duplicate policy rules for every restart. So we suggested below method to restart NetworkManager


nmcli networking off
systemctl restart NetworkManager
nmcli networking on


But this does not bring up vlan interfaces:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

 NetworkManager-1.12.0-10.el7_6.x86_64.


How reproducible:
 Always


Steps to Reproduce:

# cat ifcfg-eth0.10 
TYPE="Vlan"
PHYSDEV="eth0"
ONBOOT="yes"
IPADDR=192.168.123.102
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
VLAN="yes"
VLAN_ID=10
NAME=eth0.10


//Before:
# nmcli co show
NAME     UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE  
eth0     5fb06bd0-0bb0-7ffb-45f1-d6edd65f3e03  ethernet  eth0    
eth0.10  2dadfa26-8bfc-790a-38d4-6a0151de29d3  vlan      eth0.10 


# nmcli networking off;systemctl restart NetworkManager; nmcli networking on

//Now
# nmcli co show
NAME     UUID                                  TYPE      DEVICE 
eth0     5fb06bd0-0bb0-7ffb-45f1-d6edd65f3e03  ethernet  eth0   
eth0.10  2dadfa26-8bfc-790a-38d4-6a0151de29d3  vlan      --     <<<<<



Actual results:
nmcli  does not bring up vlan interface.

Expected results:
