<title>Switch from <command>wicked</command> to &nm;</title>
<para>
If your network service is <command>wicked</command>, you need to switch
it to &nm; because <command>wicked</command> is not supported in the new
release. To check which networking service you use, run:
</para>
<screen>
&prompt.sudo;<command>systemctl status network</command>

wicked.service - wicked managed network interfaces
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/wicked.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
</screen>
<note>
<title><command>wicked</command> and &nm; incompatibilities</title>
<para>
Even though &nm; and <command>wicked</command> are similar in
functionalities, we cannot guarantee full feature parity. Converting
the <command>wicked</command> configuration or automated switching to
&nm; is not supported.
</para>
<para>
The <filename>/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-*</filename> files are
compatible, except for some rare cases. However, when you use the
<command>wicked</command> configuration in
<filename>/etc/wicked/*.xml</filename>, you need to migrate the
configuration manually.
</para>
</note>
<para>
To change your networking managing service from <command>wicked</command>
to &nm;, proceed as follows:
</para>
<procedure xml:id="upgrading-micro-preparation-procedure">
