there is configuration available in NetworkManager and you may assign the servers*you* desire. why not configure it instead of filing a bug report.
The point is this is supposed to work and doesn't. As mentioned, this is on a notebook computer, which can be moved to different locations. At home, I want to use my own DNS server, as it contains local addresses that are useless elsewhere. That DNS would not be available to me elsewhere. Saying to manually configure something that's supposed to work automatically isn't a solution. It works with Windows and Android, but not Leap 15.4. Also, this problem has been around for a while with SLAAC and RDNSS. I have only recently been able to try it with DHCPv6. So, that's two methods that should work, but don't.
I have a Tumbleweed box utilizing NetworkManager and the default installation does not list *any* DNS servers, and correctly connects utilizing ipv6. you do not want to utilize the "default" setting but specify your own. why do you think that NetworkManager should know this w/o you specifically setting those desired sites?
James wants NM to use the information supplied during the dynamic configuration, both for IPv4 and IPv6. That is entirely reasonable. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.9°C)
