Description

This test case cover Ethernet connection configuration.

Setup

Have LAN connection available, preferably with IPv4/IPv6 dualstack support.

How to test

  1. Connect the ethernet cable.
  2. Disable and re-enable ethernet interface via Network Manager applet (Gnome or KDE).
  3. Configure IPv4/IPv6 address, route and DNS manually.

Expected Results

  1. If network has DHCP server running, you should get an IP Address, Default Route (gateway) and DNS addresses automatically. Check this via "Network Settings" in Gnome or "Network Management" applet in KDE and in terminal by running commands: ip address, ip route and ip -6 route. If network supports IPv6 autoconfiguration via DHCPv6 or SLAAC your interface should have two IPv6 addresses: First local-link starting with "fe80::" and second globally unique address provided by network.
  2. When interface is disabled, check by running ip address if interface state is "DOWN" and doesn't have other IP addresses then local-link. Run ip route and ip -6 route and check if all routes from disabled network are removed. After enabling, interface should return to previous state.
  3. Interface should be configured properly, check with ip address, ip route and ip -6 route

Optional

Optionally provide hints for exploratory testing.
