About:
nmstatectl provides a command-line interface to manage host networking settings using a declarative, YAML-based approach. It abstracts the complexity of underlying tools like NetworkManager and netplan, allowing users to define desired network states. This ensures consistent, reproducible network configurations across systems.
Key Features:
  • Declarative YAML syntax for network configuration
  • Supports Linux kernel networking stack (netlink)
  • Transactional network state changes
  • Integration with NetworkManager and other backends
  • REST API for remote management
Use Cases:
  • Automating network setup in CI/CD pipelines and container environments
  • Managing complex network configurations like bonds, bridges, and VLANs
  • Ensuring consistent network state across multiple servers
Alternatives:
  • netplan – Netplan is primarily for Ubuntu/Debian systems, while nmstate is more distribution-agnostic and offers a richer API.
  • ifupdown – Legacy Debian tool using imperative scripts; nmstate offers a modern, declarative, and transactional model.
