</div>What do you mean by the blurred term "Zeroconf"? Fedora installs Avahi<br>
by default and NM does IPv4LL as a fallback when DHCP fails. What else<br>
do you expect?<br>
<br>
(Sure, afaik nm still uses its own ipv4ll code, and it should use<br>
avahi-autoipd instead, but generally all the zeroconf technologies are<br>
available by default. There's room for a lot of polishing,<br>
though. Ubuntu's Zeroconf integration is admittedly much more refined)<br>

</div></div></blockquote></div><br>Well I was not aware of that NM checks for IPv4LL addresses. Being a student, I was just looking for a good project idea as I am learning about Zeroconf these days.<br>Now, I would like to know more about NM. :)<br clear="all">
