Public bug reported: In our network setup systemd-networkd fails to configure everything correctly. Our systems have two NIC which are configured via DHCP. One NIC is in a service network without a default route. With this setup we get systemd-networkd-wait-online.service failing after timeout and the service NIC stuck in 'configuring'. Besides that, everything is working as expected.
