- <para>Network setup is performed by
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-networkd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
- </para>
-
- <para>The main Virtual Network Device file 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. As a special case, an empty file (file size 0)
- or symlink with the same name pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename> disables the
- configuration file entirely (it is "masked").</para>
-
- <para>Along with the netdev file <filename>foo.netdev</filename>, a "drop-in" directory
- <filename>foo.netdev.d/</filename> may exist. All files with the suffix <literal>.conf</literal>
- from this directory will be parsed after the file itself is parsed. This is useful to alter or
- add configuration settings, without having to modify the main configuration file. Each drop-in
- file must have appropriate section headers.</para>
-
- <para>In addition to <filename>/etc/systemd/network</filename>, drop-in <literal>.d</literal>
- directories can be placed in <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename> or
- <filename>/run/systemd/network</filename> directories. Drop-in files in
- <filename>/etc</filename> take precedence over those in <filename>/run</filename> which in turn
- take precedence over those in <filename>/usr/lib</filename>. Drop-in files under any of these
- directories take precedence over the main netdev file wherever located. (Of course, since
- <filename>/run</filename> is temporary and <filename>/usr/lib</filename> is for vendors, it is
- unlikely drop-ins should be used in either of those places.)</para>
