The interface for creating tuntap devices should be ported to rtnl so it would support the same settings as other kinds. In the meantime, the best one can do is to drop in a .link file to set the desired options.

</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Virtual Network Device files must have the extension
|
||
<filename>.netdev</filename>; other extensions are ignored. Virtual
|
||
network devices are created as soon as networkd is started. If a netdev
|
||
with the specified name already exists, networkd will use that as-is
|
||
rather than create its own. Note that the settings of the pre-existing
|
||
netdev will not be changed by networkd.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The <filename>.netdev</filename> files are read from the files located in the
|
||
system network directory <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>,
|
||
the volatile runtime network directory
|
||
<filename>/run/systemd/network</filename> and the local administration
|
||
network directory <filename>/etc/systemd/network</filename>.
|
||
All configuration files are collectively sorted and processed in lexical order,
|
||
regardless of the directories in which they live. However, files with
|
||
identical filenames replace each other. Files in
|
||
<filename>/etc</filename> have the highest priority, files in
|
||
<filename>/run</filename> take precedence over files with the same
|
||
name in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. This can be used to override a
|
||
system-supplied configuration file with a local file if needed; a symlink in
|
||
<filename>/etc</filename> with the same name as a configuration file in
|
||
<filename>/usr/lib</filename>, pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename>,
|
||
disables the configuration file entirely.</para>
