Notable changes include: +* Improved support for configuration checkpoint, including support in libnm. +* Added capability to set IP Tunnel configuration flags. +* The systemd-resolved DNS plugins now supports MDNS. +* systemd-resolved and dnsmasq DNS plugins now honor the DNS priority setting. +* Wi-Fi devices now support FILS for speedier roaming support. +* Drop dependency on libnl3 library. +* Add support for "onlink" routes. +* More robust connectivity checking. +* Dropped the obsolete "ifnet" settings plugin, +* Try harder to generate reasonable human-readable names for devices even if + the hwdb contains garbage. +* Add an "overview" option to hide default values in nmcli, resulting in more + concise output. +* Reworked the inner workings of D-Bus interface for better resource efficiency. +* Add support for configuring nmcli coloring via terminal-colors.d(5). +* Added experimental support for Meson build system, +* Added initial IWD Wi-Fi daemon support. +* A non-hexadecimal DHCPv4 client-id is now properly passed to + dhclient with the first byte (type) set to zero, as stated in the + documentation. This represents a change in behavior since previous + versions where the first character of the string was used as + type. The internal client is not affected by the change. +* DNS setting rc-manager=file now always follows dangling symlinks + instead of replacing /etc/resolv.conf with a plain file. +* Added wake_on_wlan connection setting to configure + wake-on-wireless-lan (WoWLAN). +* The libnm-glib library, deprecated in favor of libnm since NetworkManager 1.0, + is now not built by default. While it can still be enabled, the distributions + should have a good plan for removing it if they need to keep shipping it at + this point. +* nmcli now scans for Wi-Fi networks before displaying them, if the last scan + was too long ago. +* Added the ipv6.dhcp-duid property to allow configuring the DHCPv6 DUID +* Extended ipv6.dhcp-client-id property to support DHCP client identifers + depending on the MAC address and the stable ID. +* Set NM_DISPATCHER_ACTION environment variable in dispatcher scripts. + +The following features were backported to 1.10.x releases from 1.10.0 to +1.10.10 are also present in NetworkManager-1.12: + +* Fix crash during reapply of connection settings +* Fix connectivity timeout handling (bgo #794464), +* Retry activating devices when the parent becomes managed (rh #1553595), +* Correctly set the rp_filter value (rh #1565529). +* A fix to ensure teamd is respawned after daemon restart (rh #1551958). +* Better handle DHCP expiry (bgo #783391). +* Fix configuration of IPv6 over master interfaces (rh #1575944). +* ovs: fix compilation issue of OVS plugin and various fixes. +* team: add support for team runner "random". +* core: cleanup activation of device (rh #1537160). +* dhcp: retry indefinitely to renew the lease (rh #1503587). +* core: fix blocking autoconnect for no-secrets (rh #794014). +* libnm: mark async results as cancelled (bgo #794088). * Load jansson at runtime.
