AFAICT, it's exactly (that's from hearsay) the same wild mess of layer 1, 2, and 4 information one gets with Windows (eg, grouping WiFi AP stuff [link layer], IP addresses and routes [internet layer] and DNS server settings [application layer application configuration]) and the only reason why you aren't terribly confused by that is that you've trained yourself to expect this particular mess. NotworkManager may be 'spectacular' at meeting these expectations, that's something I cannot judge. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
