Hi, I’m just getting to know Rocky. Is it possible to describe the entire configuration for all interfaces in one profile? I now have several profiles for lo, the ens1f1 interface, and the ens1f1.900 subinterface. Can I combine them all into one configuration file?
[root@rnd-rocky system-connections]# ls
ens1f1.900.nmconnection ens1f1.nmconnection lo.nmconnection
No and don’t. (Well, see below.)
The loopback interface lo is special. One does not simply even look at its direction.
Don’t look at that directory / those files.
Look at:
nmcli
nmcli d s
nmcli d sh
nmcli c s
# and if name of connection is "ens1f1", then
nmcli c s ens1f1
There is a way to have “all-in-one (except the lo)”. Configuration Management System.
dnf install ansible-core rhel-system-roles
These give command ansible-playbook and modules for writing a playbook that uses rhel-system-roles.network
Red Hat has some example of that in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) System Roles - Red Hat Customer Portal
You can have “all the profiles” of host (or hosts) in one Ansible inventory/playbook. (Easy to backup, btw.) You run ansible-playbook and it makes sure that the config of host(s) has what the play says.
