This is low priority. This has been fixed by NetworkManager-1.36.0-2.el8.x86_64 Hi Beniamino, This problem is fixed in NetworkManager-1.36.0-2.el8.x86_64, but reproduceable in NetworkManager-1:1.37.1-29888.copr.f1b3dd4eb5.el8. Could you check whether main branch missing any patches? Let's reopen this bug. Even RHEL 8.6 fixed this problem, RHEL 8.7 will has.

That would be surprising. Patches always go "main" -> "nm-1-36" -> "rhel-8.6.0", never(*) any other way. In particular not "main" -> "rhel-8.6.0" or "nm-1-36" -> "main". If you do `gitk origin/nm-1-36 origin/main` you see that the "cherry picked from" comments on `nm-1-36` refer to commits from `main`. (*) sometimes there might be exceptions, if the patch only makes sense for the older branch. Then we would also do "original work" on the old branch, instead of just backporting. That happens only seldom. NetworkManager-1.37.2-1.el8.x86_64 works well now. Closing. Problem happen again on NetworkManager-1.37.3-30055.copr.586afdfc52.el8.x86_64: https://github.com/nmstate/nmstate/runs/5785031223?check_suite_focus=true The same test passes on NetworkManager-1.37.2-1.el9.x86_64 NMCI test added: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-ci/-/merge_requests/1053 Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA.
