Created attachment 173267 [details] Unwanted notifications SUMMARY Since updating to Kubuntu 24.04, I am getting popups from the Network Manager applet for ignored networks (i.e. those starting with `veth*`) If I go into 'Configure Network Connections' the ignored networks are hidden, as expected. If I enable 'Show Virtual Connections' in this window I can see the ignored networks. I use Docker, via DDEV; This creates a lot of virtual networks which can create a lot of notification noise. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a docker network `docker network create foo` 2. Connect a container to the network `docker run --network=foo hello-world` OBSERVED RESULT A popup from the applet informing of a new connection to a `veth*` network EXPECTED RESULT No popup, as `veth*` networks should be ignored SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.11 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.13 Kernel Version: 6.8.0-40-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: offscreen Processors: 12 × Intel® Core™ i7-10850H CPU @ 2.70GHz Memory: 62.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This started happening when I updated from 22.04 to 24.04

The unwanted networks are also shown in the list of networks when you click on the applets.
Did you do something specific to mark those networks as ignored? Or was this just the way things were prior to Plasma 5.27, with no configuration required on your part?
Created attachment 173374 [details] attachment-2996888-0.html As far as I know that's just how it was - I have not changed anything apart from the system update.

I'm confused. You said it should hide ignored networks, but who marked them as ignored? If it wasn't you, then they haven't actually been marked as ignored, right?
The networks in question were ignored by my `keyfile.unmanaged-devices` setting in `/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf`: ``` ... [keyfile] unmanaged-devices=interface-name:docker*;interface-name:veth*;interface-name:br-*;interface-name:vmnet*;interface-name:vboxnet* ``` However when I installed my VPN, it had created a file in `conf.d`: ``` [keyfile] interface-name:wgpia* ``` This overwrote the file in the main config, meaning that the `veth*` (among others) were ignored. I removed the file, and added the `wgpia*` to the main `unmanaged-devices` list, and now it is behaving as expected. Thank you for your time Nate; I have marked this as resolved.
Great!
