Description of problem: I'm using NM with system configuration and permament IP addres for wired network. When I add additional routes for multicast (why isn't it added by default, BTW?), and reconnect interface, the route is applied. But when I go into connection editor again, the route is missing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.7.1-4.git20090414.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have static IP configured. Go into connection editor and add route "224.0.0.0/4" 2. Open nm applet and click edited connection. Use "ip r" to confirm that multicast route is added to interface. 3. Go into connection editor → additional routes. Actual results: Empty set of additional routes. Expected results: "224.0.0.0/4" added in step 1. should be there. Additional info:
Enhancement? Inability to add multicast route breaks thing like NTP multicast and ZeroConf. I really think this should be little more prioritised.
It is not a regression in NetworkManager itself since that functionality has never existed in NM. It is a regression if you switch from the network service to NetworkManager and we fully expect to fix it. But given that it's not a regression in NM itself, it's actually an enhancement request to support this feature. That does not mean the issue is not important.
Created attachment 372989 [details] Support for handling route-file by ifcfg-rh plugin The patch in the attachment adds the support for handling static routes to ifcfg-rh plugin. (just IPv4 now) It does that by handling standard route- files of initscripts. Both new and legacy syntax format are supported as described in sysconfig.txt (/usr/share/doc/initscripts-<ver>). So that routes edited via the NM connection editor are not lost any more, but are stored into the route- file (and read from that as well).
Thanks! 9e93924cca6c9f5f7fc6819babd9dd2771c1cc03 (master) 0fdbefa8736c318886e7e59ef27e5005054ac327 (0.7.x) I had to fix one thing related to the 'make distcheck' (ensuring that we remove the rewritten routes file in that one test that reads in and writes back out routes) and also adding the new ifcfg- and route- files to the Makefile.am to ensure they show up in the source tarball. Other than that, excellent work.
