Title:
  netplan drops routes on carrier loss

Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Our system has some statically defined network devices.  Whenever a
  carrier loss happens, which can be due to manual network cabling
  changes but also due to the connected ISP's router doing a maintenance
  restart, the system receives a carrier loss.  This results in all
  routes being removed.  They are not added back when the carrier is
  regained.

  I tried putting

  [Match]
  Name=*

  [Link]
  ActivationPolicy=always-up

  into /etc/systemd/network/netplan-override.network.d/override.conf ,
  but this doesn't seem to help either.

  I don't see any way to specify that a carrier loss should be ignored
  via netplan.  I suppose https://github.com/canonical/netplan/pull/34
  introduced this for bridge devices.

  I'm actually surprised this isn't a bigger issue to people since.
