I may have the wrong end of the stick, but what about the increasingly
common situation where wired access to Ethernet switches is beings
controlled by 802.1x authentication? I understand that NM will handle
the laptop/workstation with GUI case, but what about servers? And how
does NM handle static IP addresses?
NM needs to move to handle these sorts of things; shipping two infrastructures
is silly.
