Interesting.. I suspect some infrastructure changes here. The default for systemd-networkd-wait-online is to wait on the "degraded" operational state, i.e. having a link-local address assigned to the interface. If there is SLAAC or IPv6 RA enabled on the other side of "encc000", the interface might come online without "optional: true". But lacking such setup, it would be stuck in the "configuring" state, as it waits for an (IPv6) link-locaL address, putting it as "optional: true" helps in that case with our recent changes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060311 Title: Setting "optional: true" to overcome he timeout "Job systemd-networkd- wait-online" does no longer work with latest noble image Status in Netplan: In Progress Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems: New Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in netplan.io source package in Noble: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Noble: Confirmed Bug description: Especially on s390x (but not limited to s390x) it's often the case that a system has network devices that are not necessarily connected during boot-up and one gets such a 2 min timeout: "Job systemd-networkd-wait-online.

Setting 'optional: true' in /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml looks like this for me: # This file is generated from information provided by the datasource. Changes # to it will not persist across an instance reboot. To disable cloud-init's # network configuration capabilities, write a file # /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg.d/99-disable-network-config.cfg with the following: # network: {config: disabled} network: ethernets: enP1p0s0: optional: true dhcp4: true enP1p0s0d1: optional: true dhcp4: true enP2p0s0: optional: true dhcp4: true enP2p0s0d1: optional: true dhcp4: true encc000: {} version: 2 vlans: encc000.2653: addresses: - 10.11.12.15/24 gateway4: 10.11.12.1 id: 2653 link: encc000 nameservers: addresses: - 10.11.12.1 ... can be set fine (also --dry-run does not moan, except about dhcp4). This worked in the past on noble, but also on older Ubuntu releases like jammy.
