    manages networks. It detects and configures network devices as
    they appear, as well as creating virtual network devices.</p><p>To configure low-level link settings independently of
    networks, see
    <a href="systemd.link.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.link</span>(5)</span></a>.</p><p>Network configurations applied before networkd is started
    are not removed, and static configuration applied by networkd is
    not removed when networkd exits. Dynamic configuration applied by
    networkd may also optionally be left in place on shutdown. This
    ensures restarting networkd does not cut the network connection,
    and, in particular, that it is safe to transition between the
    initrd and the real root, and back.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a name="idm47273607344544"></a><h2 id="Configuration Files">Configuration Files<a class="headerlink" title="Permalink to this headline" href="#Configuration%20Files">¶</a></h2><p>The configuration files are read from the files located in the
