for filtering output using the same mechanism that udevadm trigger
already implements.
- Network Management:
-
- * The "duid-only" option for DHCPv4 client's ClientIdentifier= setting
- is now dropped, as it never worked, hence it should not be used by
- anyone.
-
* The predictable network interface naming logic is extended to include
the SR-IOV-R "representor" information in network interface names.
This feature was intended for v254, but even though the code was
It is now enabled by default and is part of the new "v255" naming
scheme.

+
* The 'prefixstable' ipv6 address generation mode now considers the
SSID when generating stable addresses, so that a different stable
address is used when roaming between wireless networks. If you
exchange if also supported by the DHCP server.
* The DHCPv4 client gained new InitialCongestionWindow= and
- InitialAdvertisedReceiveWindow= options for Route configurations.
+ InitialAdvertisedReceiveWindow= options for route configurations.
* The DHCPv4 client gained a new RequestAddress= option that allows
to send a preferred IP address in the initial DHCPDISCOVER message.
+ * The DHCPv4 server and client gained support for IPv6-only mode
+ (RFC8925).
+
* The SendHostname= and Hostname= options are now available for the
DHCPv6 client, independent of the DHCPv4 option, so that these
configuration values can be set independently for each client.
* The DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 client state can now be queried via D-Bus,
including lease information.
- * The DHCPv6 client can now be configured to use a custom DUIDType.
+ * The DHCPv6 client can now be configured to use a custom DUID type.
- * The DHCPv6 server can now be configured to use a custom hop limit
- via HopLimit=.
+ * .network files gained a new IPv4ReversePathFilter= setting in the
+ [Network] section, to control sysctl's rp_filter setting.
- * HopLimit= can now be used to configure a per-route hop limit.
+ * .network files gaiend a new HopLimit= setting in the [Route] section,
+ to configure a per-route hop limit.
- * TCPRetransmissionTimeOutSec= can now be used to configure a per-route
- TCP retransmission timeout.
+ * .network files gained a new TCPRetransmissionTimeoutSec= setting in
+ the [Route] section, to configure a per-route TCP retransmission
+ timeout.
* A new directive NFTSet= provides a method for integrating network
configuration into firewall rules with NFT sets. The benefit of using
obtained network addresses can be used in firewall rules with the
indirection of NFT set types.
- * A new [IPv6PREF64Prefix] set of options, containing Prefix= and
- LifetimeSec=, has been introduced to enable support for pref64 (RFC8781).
-
* The [IPv6AcceptRA] section supports the following new options:
UsePREF64=, UseHopLimit=, UseICMP6RateLimit= and NFTSet=.
RetransmitSec=, HopLimit=, HomeAgent=, HomeAgentLifetimeSec= and
HomeAgentPreference=.
+ * A new [IPv6PREF64Prefix] set of options, containing Prefix= and
+ LifetimeSec=, has been introduced to append pref64 options in router
+ advertisements (RFC8781).
+
* The network generator now configures the interfaces with only
link-local addressing if ip=link-local is specified on the kernel
command line.
