I mistook the meaning of the word "UP". In this instance it refers to the Ethernet cable being plugged in and a connection established. |
Dear Fedora, "eno2 is my only connection to the Internet. "ifconfig" reports that eno2 is "UP", when it is not. $ rpm -qf $(which ifconfig) net-tools-2.0-0.57.20160912git.fc32.x86_64 $ ping -c 1 8.8.8.8 PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=118 time=12.5 ms $ nmcli device | grep eno2 eno2 ethernet connected eno2 $ ifconfig | grep eno2 eno2: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 $ /usr/bin/nmcli connection down eno2 Connection 'eno2' successfully deactivated (D-Bus active path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/6) $ nmcli device | grep eno2 eno2 ethernet disconnected -- $ ping -c 1 8.8.8.8 ping: connect: Network is unreachable $ ifconfig | grep eno2 eno2: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 "UP"?
