This was a while ago; to the best of my recollection at that time NetworkManager did not support bridges; or the there was some other reason the bridge had to be set up that way.
Well, for a reason that I'll describe separately, after updating to F31 it was necessary to manually ifdown/ifup the bridge in order to fix something. And I'm told that ifdown/ifup is being retired and I should use nmcli. But nmcli doesn't see it, of course.
So, what are my options? Reconfigure my monkey-patched configuration to a NM- managed one?
What I currently have is: # cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 # Intel Corporation 82573E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) DEVICE=eth0 BRIDGE=vnet0 HWADDR=00:30:48:FC:83:FA ONBOOT=yes OPTIONS=layer2=1 TYPE=Ethernet NM_CONTROLLED=no USERCTL=no IPV6INIT=yes DEFROUTE=yes PEERDNS=yes PEERROUTES=yes IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes IPV6_DEFROUTE=yes IPV6_PEERDNS=yes IPV6_PEERROUTES=yes IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no NAME="System eth0" #UUID=5fb06bd0-0bb0-7ffb-45f1-d6edd65f3e03 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ETHTOOL_OPTS="advertise 030" and # cat ifcfg-vnet0 DEVICE=vnet0 TYPE=Bridge BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes IPV6INIT=no USERCTL=no ZONE=FedoraWorkstation NM_CONTROLLED=no Currently, NetworkManager sees /something/: # nmcli c show NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE virbr0 65a32109-d944-40b1-abf8-15458f81585c bridge virbr0 And when everything's up, "ip addr" shows:2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel master vnet0 state UP group default qlen 1000

link/ether 02:23:42:87:19:5d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ffIs this as simple as manually changing NM_CONTROLLED=yes in both initscripts? That's easy enough to do, test, and roll it back, if it blows up, but can anyone think of anything else that needs to be tweaked.
