@ -64,12 +64,23 @@ This is a new stable release of NetworkManager. Notable changes include:
* The API for VPN plugins now supports multiple simultaneous connections.
Most popular VPN plugins have been updated to support this functionality.
* The libnm library now provides API to access VPN service definitions.
* Fair amount of bugs was fixed and robustness was generally improved.
* New DHCP_FQDN key in ifcfg files to configure the full FQDN to be sent to
the DHCP servers.
* The timeout for DHCP requests can now be modified using the
'ipv4.dhcp-timeout' property.
* Added multicast_snooping option to BRIDGING_OPTS ifcfg key.
* Added support for detecting duplicate IPv4 addresses, with a timeout
configurable through the ipv4.dad-timeout connection property.
* Fixed a race condition that could potentially lead to unauthorized access
to connection secrets (CVE-2016-0764).
* dnsmasq configuration for shared connections can now be extended by
placing custom files in /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq-shared.d/.
* Generic devices are no longer assumed unless explicitly requested by
user.
* The reorder-header VLAN flag setting is now honored; to keep backwards
compatibility in behavior, an existing REORDER_HDR=0 ifcfg-rh key is
ignored; the flag must be disabled with VLAN_FLAGS=NO_REORDER_HDR.
* Fair amount of bugs was fixed and robustness was generally improved.
The following features were backported to 1.0.x releases from 1.0.0 to 1.0.8
