If you want to switch to the new default configuration you can do this:

$ sudo ln -fs ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

And reboot. both ifupdown and network-manager, in 17.10 feed
nameservers to resolved and this is what default configuration should
look like.

Otherwise you need to specify nameserver in either /etc/resolv.conf
direct, or by supplying them to network-manager and asking it to
manage the /etc/resolv.conf.
