* My use case: I run a virtual machine with virt-manager (KVM/QEMU). Each time the virtual machine is switched on, virt-manager creates a virtual ethernet interface vnetN with a different number and MAC address on the host and attaches it to the bridge virbr0. As a bridge member, vnetN is not supposed to receive any IP configuration. Connman was installed on the host with LXDE and manages the physical ethernet and wireless interfaces with IPv4 and IPv6 automatic configuration. * Problem description: By default, connman manages vnetN with automatic methods and, after failing to use DHCP, assigns it a link-local IPv4 address (APIPA 169.254.0.0/16) and a direct default IPv4 route with default metric (the highest priority). This default route conflicts with the existing IPv4 default route associated with the physical network interface and breaks the host IPv4 connectivity outside the LAN. syslog: ip addr: ip route: * Workaround: Add "vnet" to NetworkInterfaceBlacklist in /etc/connman/main.conf. * Comments/questions: 1) Isn't it desirable to ignore "vnet" interfaces in the default configuration ? Or is there a use case where connman should manage vnet interfaces ? 2) What is the use case for creating a direct default IPv4 route when DHCP failed and an APIPA address was assigned, specially when another default route already exists ? Communicating with other hosts in the APIPA subnet on the same LAN does not require it. It may allow to send packets to other hosts in non-APIPA subnets on the same LAN, but usually they do not have a direct route to the APIPA subnet and are unable to reply. 3) If such use case exists, shouldn't this default route have a low priority (high metric) so that other default routes take precedence ?
