Is it possible to get this into 18.04.3 release? Not that fond of waiting until January 2020 for the .4 release.

[Test case] 1) Configure netplan for the particulars of the network by configuring an appropriate dhcp{4,6}-override stanza: network: version: 2 ethernets: engreen: dhcp4: true dhcp4-overrides: use-dns: false use-routes: false route-metric: 3333 Additionally, if so required, add a custom DNS / routes to the configuration. e.g. nameservers: search: [lab, kitchen] addresses: [8.8.8.8] (See https://netplan.io/reference#dhcp-overrides for the available options) 2) Run 'netplan apply' or reboot to have the configuration applied. 3) Validate that the routes / DNS are properly ignored and/or replaced by the defined values. [Regression potential] Minimal; this adds new values to the configuration generated for networkd or NetworkManager. Existing configurations will remain unchanged, but new configurations using the dhcp{4,6}-overrides fields will benefit from additional flexibility. --- Currently DHCP appears to be an all or nothing boolean, which is insufficient for many network configurations. Ideally all of the DHCP configuration options supported by systemd would also be supported in netplan: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.network.html#%5BDHCP%5D%20Section%20Options As an example, consider the following netplan configuration: network: version: 2 renderer: networkd ethernets: enp0s3: dhcp4: yes nameservers: [8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4] After running netplan apply I check the nameservers with systemd- resolve --status and it shows: DNS Servers: 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 192.168.1.1 Here, "192.168.1.1" was provided by my DHCP server. On this particular node, I only want the manually configured DNS servers, but netplan has no way to indicate this.
