Thanks again.
Your info are precious ! Some of them should make their way into the
official doc to me.
Again, a lot to digest but it's getting pretty clear.
Usually, NetworkManager (the daemon) does not automatically create
connection profiles
But when it does (as in your cases), is it always only in RAM (unless
we
then save the profile to disk of course) ?
Yes. But when you modify this profile, it usually gets persisted to
disk.
I see in my tests that a profile modification is persisted even before
the call to nmcli device reapply : am I right ?
What's the link between persistence, modification and reapplication of a
profile ?
Maybe NM created such an "auto-default" (named "Wired Connection #"),
but then you deleted it? It wouldn't create it again, see file
/var/lib/NetworkManager/no-auto-default.state.
The MAC is indeed in there although I don't remember deleting an auto
created profile
Thanks again!
