+    <title>Network Interface Configuration Files</title>
+
+    <para>Starting with version 209, systemd ships a network configuration
+    daemon called <command>systemd-networkd</command> which can be used for
+    basic network configuration. Additionally, since version 213, DNS name
+    resolution can be handled by <command>systemd-resolved</command> in place
+    of a static <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename> file. Both services are
+    enabled by defualt, and absolutely should not be disabled.</para>
+
+    <para>Configuration files for <command>systemd-networkd</command> (and
+    <command>systemd-resolved</command>) can be placed in
+    <filename class="directory">/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>
+    or <filename class="directory">/etc/systemd/network</filename>. Files in
+    <filename class="directory">/etc/systemd/network</filename> have a
+    higher priority than the ones in
+    <filename class="directory">/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>.
+    There are three types of configuration files:
+    <filename class="extension">.link</filename>,
+    <filename class="extension">.netdev</filename> and
+    <filename class="extension">.network</filename> files. For detailed
+    descriptions and example contents of these configuration files, consult 
+    the <filename>systemd-link(5)</filename>,
+    <filename>systemd-netdev(5)</filename> and
+    <filename>systemd-network(5)</filename> manual pages.</para>
+
+    <note><para>Udev may assign network card interface names based
+    on system physical characteristics such as enp2s1. If you are
+    not sure what your interface name is, you can always run
+    <command>ip link</command> after you have booted your system.
