Howto migrate from networking to systemd-networkd with dynamic failover
Systemd's systemd-networkd can be used to replace the existing networking system on Raspbian.
How does it work with Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi with two interfaces for ethernet and wlan? Can I also realize dynamic failover for them?
