The NetworkManager applet has stopped displaying the "tun" device (tun0 in my case) entry when I connect to my VPN using OpenVPN's "systemd@.service". The Network Monitor Plasma widget still recognizes that tun0 exists and displays traffic correctly. The device also definitely shows up with correct routing in "$ ip route". This seems like a regression since it has worked in earlier Plasma versions and it allowed me to quickly check if I am connected to my VPN by clicking on the tray icon. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. # systemctl start enable openvpn@configuration 2. Expand NetworkManager applet Actual Results: The "tun" device, as configured in the OpenVPN client configuration, doesn't show up. Expected Results: The "tun" device, as configured in the OpenVPN client configuration, should show up. I am running Arch Linux with the latest updates installed, no packages ignored.
We decided not to show up tun connections as displaying them is useless for majority of users. We already show the active VPN connection which user activates using NetworkManager and the tun connection would be like a duplicate.
