With networkd, we would no longer be able to DHCP-assign Nintendo 3DS nor Apple iPod nor deal with Juniper's DSL (by ISP) concentrator nor deal with a "he-shall-remain-nameless" residential alarm provider.
DHCP OPTIONS feature (that systemd-network does not have) still has major places within enterprise and homelab networks.

So, excuse me while I vehemently resist systemd-networkd.
- anttisalmela 2y agoTIL that networkd has built-in DHCP server. I don't think that this matters here, using networkd for client configuration shouldn't prevent using something else for server.
