2015-01-13Minor documentation fixesJouke Witteveen1-2/+5
2015-01-12Add support for keys to tunnel connectionsAnthony Ruhier1-0/+3
Only relevant for GRE tunneling.
2015-01-12Unify wired and wireless automatic profile selection (FS#35252)Jouke Witteveen1-4/+11
The previous wired automatic profile selection procedure was not properly documented. Now both wired and wireless automatic profile selection use ExcludeAuto= and Priority=
2015-01-12Add policy support to bonding connectionsJouke Witteveen1-2/+6
2014-07-27Add a connection type for openvswitch interfacesJouke Witteveen1-0/+9
Open vSwitch support code contributed by: Jonathan Hudson <jh+arch@daria.co.uk>
2014-06-24Document support for IPv6 with dhcpcdJouke Witteveen1-2/+2
2014-06-14Typos in docsJouke Witteveen1-1/+1
Somehow, these have gone unnoticed for quite some time.
2014-04-23wpa: add Frequency= optionIvan Shapovalov1-0/+4
This option sets a frequency to use in ad-hoc mode for a newly created IBSS (when it is going to be created).
2014-03-10mobile_ppp: Unhardcode the phone number to dialJouke Witteveen1-11/+14
2014-03-10Formatting/typo in man pagesJouke Witteveen1-1/+1
2014-03-02Document TimeoutUpJouke Witteveen1-0/+4
2014-03-01Add macvlan connection supportJouke Witteveen1-0/+21
2014-03-01Minor improvements to bridge/vlan codeJouke Witteveen1-3/+3
2014-03-01port bonding from ifenslave to iproute2ajs124_desk1-2/+1
Ifenslave is deprecated according to the kernel documentation: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/bonding.txt It also added an additional, unnecessary dependency. I tried to update the documentation to reflect this change.
2014-02-27Introduce a new PPP connection typeJouke Witteveen1-0/+10
This should at some point take care of most PPP use cases, but currently is just a frontend to pppoe. The main difference is that the new connection type keeps track of profiles by their 'dynamic' interface name. Hence it is not wise to use both pppoe and ppp profiles.
2014-02-27Factor out DHCP client supportJouke Witteveen1-7/+9
Support for additional DHCP clients is now easy to add.
2014-02-27Add option to bypass Duplicate Address DetectionJouke Witteveen1-4/+8
After several requests, here is SkipDAD to bypass Duplicate Address Detection.
2013-10-24Overhaul of ppp connection typesJouke Witteveen1-1/+10
- Refactorization of option file generation - Introduction of optional additional pppd options file specification - Introduction of unit specification option for pppoe connections
2013-10-23Add a connection type for dummy interfacesJouke Witteveen1-0/+8
2013-10-23Allow limiting the frequencies to scan (FS#37032)Jouke Witteveen1-0/+4
This is especially useful to enforce connecting in the 5 GHz band.
2013-10-23Increase default DHCP timeoutJouke Witteveen1-1/+1
New timeout is 30 seconds, which equals the current dhcpcd default.
2013-07-25Make netctl-auto more hook friendlyJouke Witteveen1-7/+7
The hooks (including any interface hook) are loaded each time a wpa event occurs. This means the auto.action script can be extended in the hooks. For this purpose, several exported variables (mainly $ACTION) can be checked for their value. The name of the active profile is not exported, but still available (just as in ordinary netctl usage) through the $Profile variable. Profiles ending in .action are disallowed (reserved for possible future use). Both ifplugd and wpa_actiond have a notion of 'action script'.
2013-07-24Use iproute2 for bridging (FS#36165)Jouke Witteveen1-6/+4
This sheds the dependency on the old bridge-utils (brctl).
2013-07-16Don't release DHCP leases by default (FS#35760)Jouke Witteveen1-0/+4
Regardless of the DHCP client, leases are not released by default. This introduces a new configuration parameter: DHCPReleaseOnStop, which can be used to change the default behavior.
2013-06-16Documentation updatesJouke Witteveen1-6/+15
2013-05-21Expose the 'maxfail' option for ppp connectionsJouke Witteveen1-6/+11
2013-04-16Updated man page to include pppoe and mobile_pppRobbie Smith1-2/+83
Removed unnecessary options from example connection.
2013-04-15Fix naming of IEEE 802 working groupsJouke Witteveen1-3/+3
Use 'wpa' to refer to the 802.11i and 802.1x client side software (wpa_supplicant) in general.
2013-04-13Allow IP6 address to be set in case IP6=statelessJouke Witteveen1-2/+2
Router advertisements can tell clients to not generate a public address automatically (AdvAutonomous off). Reported by: Jonne Haß
2013-04-13ExecDownPre is executed BEFORE the con is brought downDaniel Oertwig1-1/+1
ExecDownPre is executed before the connection is brought down, not after, as the man suggests. See netctl/src/lib/network line 75
2013-04-10Fix DHCPOptionsJouke Witteveen1-1/+1
Split them into different variables for different clients. Also, IP6 gets its own, so that it can have options different from the IP4 invocation.
2013-03-29Documentation updateJouke Witteveen1-33/+38
Rebuild all the manpages because version information may have changed. Add a few words on options that are ignored in some cases.
2013-03-18Documentation updatesJouke Witteveen1-0/+4
2013-02-15Update documentationJouke Witteveen1-1/+3
DAD is still causing problems/confusion. This should help a bit.
2013-02-05Move the location for profilesJouke Witteveen1-9/+9
Old location: /etc/network.d New location: /etc/netctl This should ease migration from netcfg and is a better path anyway.
2013-02-01Remove the default IPv4 netmaskJouke Witteveen1-4/+3
A default netmask makes no sense (except possibly /32). Spotted by: Thomas Bächler <thomas@archlinux.org>
2012-12-30Forgotten lines on automatic connection scriptsJouke Witteveen1-0/+4
- The services now bind to their interfaces correctly. - Documentation of ExcludeAuto is added.
2012-12-30Drop the Scan parameterJouke Witteveen1-5/+0
It was quite useless.
2012-12-28Forking netcfg to netctl (2/2)Jouke Witteveen1-279/+320
This commit contains the refactoring and rewriting of code.
2012-12-28Forking netcfg to netctl (1/2)Jouke Witteveen1-0/+321
This commit contains the moving of files.
