Why is it so, that NetworkManager allows, and in several cases I've had, defaults to setting default route to several interfaces at the same time?
It does what the operators of the networks tell it to do.
Had my fair share of problems with how 172.17.62.something interface tries to ask for a DHCP lease from 193.something network.
Specifically why is that wrong? If the interface is physically attached to broadcast domain where a DHCP server provides information for 193.something, then presumably that is the information that the client should use.
I know I could set never-default to the interfaces, but I shouldn't have to do it to every machine I had.
Well, the way you would avoid configuring every client would be to offer consistent information from DHCP.
Especially bad was the situation when I had two VLANs and a normal ethernet interface, and dhclient tried to ask a lease for the ethernet over the VLAN.
Do you mean tagged VLANs? What you're describing shouldn't be possible. If the client doesn't know about a tagged VLAN, it can't transmit a tagged packet containing a DHCP request.
If that's not what you're describing, the problem really isn't clear. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
