Packit 5756e2
        This command shows configured polkit permissions for various NetworkManager
Packit 5756e2
        operations. These permissions or actions (using polkit language) are configured
Packit 5756e2
        by a system administrator and are not meant to be changed by users. The usual
Packit 5756e2
        place for the polkit configuration is /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.policy.
Packit 5756e2
        pkaction command can display description for polkit actions.

Example 6. Changing NetworkManager logging

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli g log level DEBUG domains CORE,ETHER,IP
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli g log level INFO domains DEFAULT
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        The first command makes NetworkManager log in DEBUG level, and only for CORE, ETHER and
Packit 5756e2
        IP domains. The second command restores the default logging state. Please refer to the
Packit 5756e2
        NetworkManager.conf(5) manual page
Packit 5756e2
        for available logging levels and domains.

Example 7. Activating a VPN connection profile requiring interactive password input

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli --ask con up my-vpn-con
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        This command activates a VPN connection profile enabling nmcli to interact with the user
Packit 5756e2
        ('--ask'): this will allow nmcli to prompt for the VPN password on the command line when
Packit 5756e2
        the password-flags are set to '0x02' ('always ask', see
Packit 5756e2
        nm-settings(5)
Packit 5756e2
        ).
Packit 5756e2
        This is particularly useful for OTP based VPNs, as the user needs to be prompted for the
Packit 5756e2
        password each time the connection is activated.
Packit 5756e2

Example 8. Adding a bonding master and two slave connection profiles

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type bond ifname mybond0 mode active-backup
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type ethernet ifname eth1 master mybond0
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type ethernet ifname eth2 master mybond0
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        This example demonstrates adding a bond master connection and two slaves. The
Packit 5756e2
        first command adds a master bond connection, naming the bonding interface
Packit 5756e2
        mybond0 and using active-backup mode.
Packit 5756e2
        The next two commands add slaves connections, both enslaved to mybond0.
Packit 5756e2
        The first slave will be bound to eth1 interface, the second to
Packit 5756e2
        eth2.
Packit 5756e2
      

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2

Example 9. Adding a team master and two slave connection profiles

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type team con-name Team1 ifname Team1 config team1-master-json.conf
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type ethernet con-name Team1-slave1 ifname em1 master Team1
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type ethernet con-name Team1-slave2 ifname em2 master Team1
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        This example demonstrates adding a team master connection profile and two slaves. It is
Packit 5756e2
        very similar to the bonding example. The first command adds a master team profile, naming
Packit 5756e2
        the team interface and the profile Team1. The team configuration
Packit 5756e2
        for the master is read from team1-master-json.conf file. Later, you can
Packit 5756e2
        change the configuration with modify command
Packit 5756e2
        (nmcli con modify Team1 team.config team1-master-another-json.conf).
Packit 5756e2
        The last two commands add slaves profiles, both enslaved to Team1.
Packit 5756e2
        The first slave will be bound to the em1 interface, the second to
Packit 5756e2
        em2. The slaves don't specify config and thus
Packit 5756e2
        teamd will use its default configuration. You will activate the whole setup
Packit 5756e2
        by activating both slaves:
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
  $ nmcli con up Team1-slave1
Packit 5756e2
  $ nmcli con up Team1-slave2
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        By default, the created profiles are marked for auto-activation. But if another
Packit 5756e2
        connection has been activated on the device, the new profile won't activate
Packit 5756e2
        automatically and you need to activate it manually.
Packit 5756e2
      

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2

Example 10. Adding a bridge and two slave profiles

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type bridge con-name TowerBridge ifname TowerBridge
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type ethernet con-name br-slave-1 ifname ens3 master TowerBridge
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add type ethernet con-name br-slave-2 ifname ens4 master TowerBridge
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con modify TowerBridge bridge.stp no
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        This example demonstrates adding a bridge master connection and two slaves. The
Packit 5756e2
        first command adds a master bridge connection, naming the bridge interface and
Packit 5756e2
        the profile as TowerBridge.
Packit 5756e2
        The next two commands add slaves profiles, both will be enslaved to
Packit 5756e2
        TowerBridge.
Packit 5756e2
        The first slave will be tied to ens3 interface, the second to
Packit 5756e2
        ens4.
Packit 5756e2
        The last command will disable 802.1D STP for the TowerBridge profile.
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2

Example 11. Adding an ethernet connection profile with manual IP configuration

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con add con-name my-con-em1 ifname em1 type ethernet \
Packit 5756e2
  ip4 192.168.100.100/24 gw4 192.168.100.1 ip4 1.2.3.4 ip6 abbe::cafe
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con mod my-con-em1 ipv4.dns "8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4"
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con mod my-con-em1 +ipv4.dns 1.2.3.4
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli con mod my-con-em1 ipv6.dns "2001:4860:4860::8888 2001:4860:4860::8844"
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli -p con show my-con-em1
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        The first command adds an Ethernet connection profile named my-con-em1
Packit 5756e2
        that is bound to interface name em1. The profile is configured
Packit 5756e2
        with static IP addresses. Three addresses are added, two IPv4 addresses and one IPv6.
Packit 5756e2
        The first IP 192.168.100.100 has a prefix of 24 (netmask equivalent of 255.255.255.0).
Packit 5756e2
        Gateway entry will become the default route if this profile is activated on em1 interface
Packit 5756e2
        (and there is no connection with higher priority). The next two addresses do not
Packit 5756e2
        specify a prefix, so a default prefix will be used, i.e. 32 for IPv4 and 128 for IPv6.
Packit 5756e2
        The second, third and fourth commands modify DNS parameters of the new connection profile.
Packit 5756e2
        The last con show command displays the profile so that all
Packit 5756e2
        parameters can be reviewed.
Packit 5756e2

$ nmcli -g ip4.address connection show my-con-eth0
Packit 5756e2
192.168.1.12/24
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli -g ip4.address,ip4.dns connection show my-con-eth0
Packit 5756e2
192.168.1.12/24
Packit 5756e2
192.168.1.1
Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli -g ip4 connection show my-con-eth0
Packit 5756e2
IP4:192.168.1.12/24:192.168.1.1::192.168.1.1::
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        This example shows retrieval of ip4 connection field values via the --get-values
Packit 5756e2
        option. Multiple comma separated fields can be provided: they will be printed one
Packit 5756e2
        per line. If a whole section is provided instead of a single field, the name of the
Packit 5756e2
        section will be printed followed by all the related field values on the same line.
Packit 5756e2
        See also --terse, --mode, --fields and --escape options in nmcli(1)

        This example demonstrates adding an Ethernet connection for
Packit 5756e2
        physical function (PF) ens4 and
Packit 5756e2
        configuring 3 SR-IOV virtual functions (VFs) on it. The first
Packit 5756e2
        VF is configured with MAC address 00:11:22:33:44:55 and VLAN
Packit 5756e2
        10, the second one has the trust and
Packit 5756e2
        spoof-check features respectively enabled
Packit 5756e2
        and disabled. VF number 2 has a maximum transmission rate of
Packit 5756e2
        20Mbps. The kernel is instructed to not automatically
Packit 5756e2
        instantiate a network interface for the VFs.

Example 15. nmcli usage in a NetworkManager dispatcher script to make Ethernet and Wi-Fi mutually exclusive

Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
#!/bin/bash
Packit 5756e2
export LC_ALL=C
Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
enable_disable_wifi ()
Packit 5756e2
{
Packit 5756e2
    result=$(nmcli dev | grep "ethernet" | grep -w "connected")
Packit 5756e2
    if [ -n "$result" ]; then
Packit 5756e2
        nmcli radio wifi off
Packit 5756e2
    else
Packit 5756e2
        nmcli radio wifi on
Packit 5756e2
    fi
Packit 5756e2
}
Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
if [ "$2" = "up" ]; then
Packit 5756e2
    enable_disable_wifi
Packit 5756e2
fi
Packit 5756e2
Packit 5756e2
if [ "$2" = "down" ]; then
Packit 5756e2
    enable_disable_wifi
Packit 5756e2
fi
Packit 5756e2
      
Packit 5756e2

Packit 5756e2
        This dispatcher script makes Wi-Fi mutually exclusive with wired
Packit 5756e2
        networking. When a wired interface is connected, Wi-Fi will be set
Packit 5756e2
        to airplane mode (rfkilled). When the wired interface is disconnected,
Packit 5756e2
        Wi-Fi will be turned back on.
Packit 5756e2
        Name this script e.g. 70-wifi-wired-exclusive.sh and put it into /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/
Packit 5756e2
        directory.
Packit 5756e2
        See NetworkManager(8)
Packit 5756e2
        manual page for more information about NetworkManager dispatcher scripts.

Example 17. Bluetooth connection profiles

NetworkManger supports both connecting to NAP and DUN devices as a client. It also

Packit 5756e2
        supports sharing the network via a NAP server.
Packit 5756e2
      

Packit 5756e2

For NAP client connections, NetworkManager automatically creates a suitable in-memory profile

Packit 5756e2
        for paired devices if none is available. You may use that generated profile directly, but you may also modify
Packit 5756e2
        and persist it, which will prevent to automatically re-create it. You may also create a profile from scratch.
Packit 5756e2
        For example, the following uses DHCP and IPv6 autoconf for address configuration:
Packit 5756e2
      

Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli connection add type bluetooth con-name "Profile for My Bluetooth Device (NAP)" autoconnect no bluetooth.type panu bluetooth.bdaddr "$BDADDR"
Packit 5756e2

For DUN connections, the user needs to configure modem settings and hence no profile

Packit 5756e2
        gets created automatically. The modem settings depend on your device and you either need
Packit 5756e2
        a "gsm" or a "csma" section. For example,
Packit 5756e2
      

Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli connection add type bluetooth con-name "Profile for My Bluetooth Device (DUN)" autoconnect no bluetooth.type dun bluetooth.bdaddr "$BDADDR" gsm.apn apn.com
Packit 5756e2

Finally, you can create a bluetooth hotspot. BlueZ implements those as a bridge device,

Packit 5756e2
        so such profiles also have a bridge section. Also, you probably want to set IP methods as "shared",
Packit 5756e2
        so that clients get automatic IP addressing. Note that the "shared" IPv4 method requires dnsmasq to be available.
Packit 5756e2
      

Packit 5756e2
$ nmcli connection add type bluetooth con-name "My Bluetooth Hotspot" autoconnect no ifname btnap0 bluetooth.type nap ipv4.method shared ipv6.method shared
