As reported on the bug cloned, this was happening because the user configuration was wrong. A strange profile was added to the node and therefore the configuration was not correct. They are investigating where this profile came from but it is not coming from Nmstate.

If this is happening again or some action is required, please open it again.

Thanks,
Fernando.

This bug is going to be re-assign to the right component. Petr, could you do that? Thanks!

Hi Siva,

To support static DNS in nmstate, you need neither:
 1. Interface with static IP and static default gateway(route).
 2. Interface with DHCP/Autoconf enabled with `auto-dns: False`.

In your example, you are missing the default gateway.

Please try to include a route something like:

```
routes:
  config:
  - destination: 0.0.0.0/0
    next-hop-address: 10.28.16.1
    next-hop-interface: ens1f0
```
