<div dir="ltr"><div>Original Message:</div><div>Hello this is related to an issue I am experiencing on Manjaro. I have<br>
raised the issue here:<br>
<a href="https://forum.manjaro.org/t/systemd-networkd-reports-device-as-unmanaged/167912" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://forum.manjaro.org/t/systemd-networkd-reports-device-as-unmanaged/167912</a><br>
<br>
To restate the content of that post:<br>
<br>
My networking configuration file:<br>
<br>
# /etc/systemd/network/wired.network[Match]Name=en*<br>
[Network]DHCP=yes<br>
<br>
After system boot, I run networkctl and get<br>
<br>
IDX LINK TYPE OPERATIONAL SETUP<br>
1 lo looback carrier unmanaged<br>
2 enp2s0 ether off unmanaged<br>
<br>
I increased log verbosity to debug and see<br>
<br>
enp2s0: Saved new link: ifindex=2, iftype=ETHER(1), kind=n/a<br>
enp2s0: Saved original MTU 1500 (min: 68, max:9194)<br>
enp2s0: Saved permanent hardware address: 00:00:de:ad:be:ef<br>
enp2s0: Saved IPv6 link-local address generation mode: eui64<br>
enp2s0: Flags change: +MULTICAST +BROADCAST<br>
enp2s0: udev initialized link<br>
enp2s0: Found driver: r8169<br>
enp2s0: Link state is up-to-date<br>
enp2s0: State changed: pending -> initialized<br>
enp2s0: Unmanaging interface<br>
enp2s0: State changed: initialized -> unmanaged<br>
<br>
Those last two lines are the concerning ones. I don't know why the<br>
interface is set to unmanaged. Is there any way to get networkd to<br>
print why it's reaching that case?<br>

Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>--- Reply<br></div><div>Hi,</div>
<br>
can you please show a<br>
<br>
```bash<br>
networkctl status enp2s0<br>
```<br>
<br>
This should show some more information.<br>
<br>
Also, the `off` lloks suspicious, as there is no carrier or something else shutting down the interface.<br>
