Ubuntu - Networking - Change netplan renderer from networkd to NetworkManager
Netplan is a utility for easily configuring networking on a Linux-based system.
It supports both networkd and NetworkManager.
- networkd is part of Systemd. In other word systemd-networkd used to manage network connections using Systemd.
- NetworkManager is a GUI tool for configuring networking options.
The steps are:
- Open the Terminal window app
- Backup current config file using the cp command.
- Type the following command to edit your netplan config file
- Set renderer to NetworkManager
- Save and close the file
- Reboot the system
Make a backup
cp /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml /backup/netplan/
Edit /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml
- /etc/netplan/01-network-manager-all.yaml
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # For more information, see netplan(5). network: version: 2 #renderer: networkd renderer: NetworkManager ethernets: enp3s0: dhcp4: yes
NOTE: Notice that networkd is commented out with the hash in front.
Also notice that the renderer is set to NetworkManager.
