[solved] systemd-networkd: static ip - network does not fire up

the content of my /etc/systemd/network/eth0.network is

[Match]
Name=eth0

[Network]
Address=192.168.0.10/24
Gateway=192.168.0.1

but the network does not fire up on boot.

if i manually execute

ip link set eth0 up

everything works fine...

this is hapening since systemd-219 onwards.

any help appreciated!

Re: [solved] systemd-networkd: static ip - network does not fire up

Is the systemd-networkd service enabled?

How are you handling DHCP?

Are you using systemd-resolved?

What is the output of:

networkctl list
networkctl status
ls -l /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants

Re: [solved] systemd-networkd: static ip - network does not fire up

i am not using dhcp just tried it to see if it works with

[Match]
Name=eth0

[Network]
DHCP=ipv4

systemd-resolved is running

networkctl list

IDX LINK             TYPE               OPERATIONAL SETUP     
  1 lo               loopback           carrier     unmanaged 
  2 eth0             ether              routable    configured

2 links listed.

networkctl status

●      State: routable
     Address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on eth0
              xxxx::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx on eth0
     Gateway: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (some vendor) on eth0
         DNS: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

this is after running ip link set eth0 up
can't tell what the output would be before since it is an remote server connected via ssh

ls -l /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants

lists the enabled services...

Re: [solved] systemd-networkd: static ip - network does not fire up

Upon further investigation it seems to be an issue with an older kernel i use (linux-3.8) which seems not compatible with recent systemd...
