Summary : systemd network and Network Name Resolution managers
Description :
systemd-networkd is a system service that manages networks. It detects and
configures network devices as they appear, as well as manages network addresses
and routes for any link for which it finds a .network file, see
systemd.network(5). It can also create virtual network devices based on their
description given by systemd.netdev(5) files. It may be controlle by
networkctl(1).
systemd-resolved is a system service that provides network name resolution to
local applications. It implements a caching and validating DNS/DNSSEC stub
resolver, as well as an LLMNR and MulticastDNS resolver and responder. It may be
controlled by resolvectl(1).
Addtionally, this package also contains a plug-in module for the Name Service
Switch (NSS), which enables hostname resolutions by contacting
systemd-resolved(8). It replaces the nss-dns plug-in module that traditionally
resolves hostnames via DNS.
To activate this NSS module, you will need to include it in /etc/nsswitch.conf,
see nss-resolve(8) manpage for more details.
