Note that with NM 0.9.10 and later, devices that meet these criteria are *not* disconnected on suspend: 1) software/virtual interfaces (bridge, bond, vlan, etc) 2) Wake-on-LAN enabled via ethtool So if your intention is to get wake-on-LAN working, it should already work if you have set it up with ethtool for the interface. If not, what is the scenario you're trying to achieve? Perhaps knowing that can help us figure out how to achieve it :) Dan _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
