Bug ID: 415509 Summary: autoconnect not set in nm configuration file Product: plasma-nm Version: 5.17.4 Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: editor Assignee: jgrul...@redhat.com Reporter: p...@free.fr Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Connection manager does not put the option "autoconnect=true" in the configuration file of nm for a LAN cabled interface when we want an automated connexion of the interface at boot. If we unselect the option "automatic connection with priority", then connection manager removes the "autoconnect-priority=n" and put "autoconnect=false" in the "/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/LAN.nmconnection" configuration file If we select the option "automatic connection with priority", then connection manager only put "autoconnect-priority=n" but DOES NOT PUT THE REQUIRED "autoconnect=true" in the "/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/LAN.nmconnection" configuration file It might be the same for ALL interface types supporting the "autoconnect" option. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. edit a LAN cabled interface connection 2. unselect then autoconnect option 3. save 4. select then autoconnect option and put priority 98 5. save 6. examine the autoconnect* directive in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/LAN.nmconnection OBSERVED RESULT there is no "autoconnect=true" directive in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/LAN.nmconnection there is ONLY an "autoconnect-priority=98" directive in this file EXPECTED RESULT there should be an "autoconnect=true" directive in the LAN configuration file otherwise NM will not start this interface at boot.
