NAME
       netplan-try - try a configuration, optionally rolling it back

SYNOPSIS
       netplan [--debug] try -h | --help

       netplan [--debug] try [--config-file CONFIG_FILE] [--timeout TIMEOUT]

DESCRIPTION
       netplan  try takes a netplan(5) configuration, applies it, and automatically rolls it back if
       the user does not confirm the configuration within a time limit.

       A configuration can be confirmed or rejected interactively or by sending the SIGUSR1 or  SIG‐
       INT signals.

       This may be especially useful on remote systems, to prevent an administrator being permanent‐
       ly locked out of systems in the case of a network configuration error.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
              Print basic help.

       --debug
              Print debugging output during the process.

       --config-file CONFIG_FILE
              In addition to the usual configuration, apply CONFIG_FILE.  It must be a YAML file  in
              the netplan(5) format.

       --timeout TIMEOUT
              Wait  for  TIMEOUT seconds before reverting.  Defaults to 120 seconds.  Note that some
              network configurations (such as STP) may take over a minute to settle.

KNOWN ISSUES
       netplan try uses similar procedures to netplan apply, so  some  of  the  same  caveats  apply
       around virtual devices.

       There are also some known bugs: if netplan try times out or is cancelled, make sure to verify
       if the network configuration has in fact been reverted.

       As with netplan apply, a reboot should fix any issues.  However, be sure to verify  that  the
       config on disk is in the state you expect before rebooting!
