NAME
systemd-networkd-wait-online.service, systemd-networkd-
wait-online - Wait for network to come online
SYNOPSIS
systemd-networkd-wait-online.service
/lib/systemd/systemd-networkd-wait-online
DESCRIPTION
systemd-networkd-wait-online is a oneshot system service
(see systemd.service(5)), that waits for the network to be
configured. By default, it will wait for all links it is
aware of and which are managed by systemd-
networkd.service(8) to be fully configured or failed, and
for at least one link to be online. Here, online means that
the link's operational state is equal or higher than
"degraded". The threshold can be configured by
--operational-state= option.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
-i INTERFACE[:MIN_OPERSTATE[:MAX_OPERSTATE]],
--interface=INTERFACE[:MIN_OPERSTATE[:MAX_OPERSTATE]]
Network interface to wait for before deciding if the
system is online. This is useful when a system has
several interfaces which will be configured, but a
particular one is necessary to access some network
resources. When used, all other interfaces are ignored.
This option may be used more than once to wait for
multiple network interfaces. When this option is
specified multiple times, then
systemd-networkd-wait-online waits for all specified
interfaces to be online. Optionally, required minimum
and maximum operational states can be specified after a
colon ":". Please see networkctl(1) for possible
operational states. If the operational state is not
specified here, then the value from RequiredForOnline=
in the corresponding .network file is used if present,
and "degraded" otherwise.
--ignore=INTERFACE
Network interfaces to be ignored when deciding if the
system is online. By default, only the loopback
interface is ignored. This option may be used more than
once to ignore multiple network interfaces.
-o MIN_OPERSTATE[:MAX_OPERSTATE],
--operational-state=MIN_OPERSTATE[:MAX_OPERSTATE]

SYSTEMD-NETWORKD-WAIT-ONLINE.SE8/SYSTEMD-NETWORKD-WAIT-ONLINE.SERVICE">SYSTEMD-NETWORKD-WAIT-ONLINE.SERVICE(8)
Takes a minimum operational state and an optional
maximum operational state. Please see networkctl(1) for
possible operational states. If set, the specified value
overrides RequiredForOnline= settings in .network files.
But this does not override operational states specified
in --interface= option.
--any
Even if several interfaces are in configuring state,
systemd-networkd-wait-online exits with success when at
least one interface becomes online. When this option is
specified with --interface=, then
systemd-networkd-wait-online waits for one of the
specified interfaces to be online. This option is useful
when some interfaces may not have carrier on boot.
--timeout=SECS
Fail the service if the network is not online by the
time the timeout elapses. A timeout of 0 disables the
timeout. Defaults to 120 seconds.
-q, --quiet
Suppress log messages.
-h, --help
Print a short help text and exit.
--version
Print a short version string and exit.
