Top of the morning,

Do the iwd dev team strongly recommend having iwd manage the wireless
interface with:

[General]
EnableNetworkConfiguration=true

I am asking as I am using iwd in conjunction with systemd-networkd,
and was caught by surprise that disconnecting from my ap in iwd:

iwctl station wlan0 disconnect

does not result in the associated networkd instance from being degraded:

                   Link File: n/a
                Network File: /etc/systemd/network/wireless.network
                       State: routable (configured)
                Online state: online
                        Type: wlan
                        MTU: 1500 (min: 68, max: 1500)
                       QDisc: pfifo_fast
IPv6 Address Generation Mode: eui64
          Wi-Fi access point: (null) (00:00:00:00:00:00)
    Number of Queues (Tx/Rx): 1/1
                     Address: 192.168.50.153 (DHCPv4 via 192.168.50.1)
                              fe80::ea4f:25ff:fe44:f60b
                     Gateway: 192.168.50.1
                         DNS: 192.168.50.240
                              1.1.1.1
                              192.168.50.1
                              2600:1700:7c10:d0ff::1
                         NTP: 192.168.50.1

It is interesting to me that networkd has enough insight to know the
ap's name, but still does not change the state off of: routable
(configured) or adjust the online state.

Yours sincerely,
Donald
