How to make the interface unmanaged by NetworkManager permanently?
Issue
- We have multiple interfaces on the server, some of those are not used, we want to make sure that NetworkManager does not handle those unused interfaces after reboot.
- We are able to make those interfaces unmanaged using nmcli, with the command
nmcli dev set <interface> managed no
but after reboot, the interfaces are managed by NM again. - How to permanently configuring a device as unmanaged in NetworkManager.
