This manual is the reference documentation for NetworkManager, the standard
|
|
Linux network management service. It is intended for system administrators and
|
|
integrators who need to understand the capabilities of NetworkManager, its
|
|
configuration options, command line tools and the D-Bus API for programmatic
|
|
control of the service.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The end users NetworkManager should instead refer to respective documentation
|
|
of their desktop environment of choice.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The application developers who prefer not to use the D-Bus API directly can use the
|
|
<ulink url="https://developer.gnome.org/libnm/stable/">libnm</ulink> library
|
|
shipped with NetworkManager or its bindings to a higher level language such as
|
|
Python, Ruby or Vala via GObject introspection.

<title>Network Configuration Setting Specification</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
This part documents the properties and value types of each "Setting"
|
|
object that composes the basic unit of NetworkManager configuration,
|
|
the "Connection". Each Connection object is simply a dictionary mapping
|
|
setting names (like "802-3-ethernet" or "bluetooth") to a dictionary of
|
|
key/value pairs that represents each itself.

<title>Secret flag types</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Each secret property in a setting has an associated "flags" property
|
|
that describes how to handle that secret. The "flags" property is a
|
|
bitfield that contains zero or more of the following values logically
|
|
OR-ed together.

|
and storing this secret.

|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<literal>0x1 (agent-owned)</literal> - a user-session secret agent
|
|
is responsible for providing and storing this secret; when it is
|
|
required, agents will be asked to provide it.
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<literal>0x2 (not-saved)</literal> - this secret should not be saved
|
|
but should be requested from the user each time it is required. This
|
|
flag should be used for One-Time-Pad secrets, PIN codes from
|
|
hardware tokens, or if the user simply does not want to save the

|
secret.
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<literal>0x4 (not-required)</literal> - in some situations it cannot

be automatically determined that a secret is required or not. This

flag hints that the secret is not required and should not be
|
|
requested from the user.
