The shortest clear answer I can give you is: In the event of a power loss, many servers will boot faster than the managed Ethernet switch they are attached to. Systems managed by network-scripts may not set up their network because there is no carrier at the time that networks-scripts start up. Network-manager, on the other hand, will set up networking whenever the interface becomes ready.
