-<td>Whether or not the connection should be automatically connected by NetworkManager when the resources for the connection are available. TRUE to automatically activate the connection, FALSE to require manual intervention to activate the connection. Autoconnect happens when the circumstances are suitable. That means for example that the device is currently managed and not active. Autoconnect thus never replaces or competes with an already active profile.

That means for example that the device is currently managed and not active. Autoconnect thus never replaces or competes with an already active profile. Note that autoconnect is not implemented for VPN profiles. See "secondaries" as an alternative to automatically connect VPN profiles. If multiple profiles are ready to autoconnect on the same device, the one with the better "connection.autoconnect-priority" is chosen. If the priorities are equal, then the most recently connected profile is activated. If the profiles were not connected earlier or their "connection.timestamp" is identical, the choice is undefined. Depending on "connection.multi-connect", a profile can (auto)connect only once at a time or multiple times.</td>

-<td>This represents the identity of the connection used for various purposes. It allows to configure multiple profiles to share the identity. Also, the stable-id can contain placeholders that are substituted dynamically and deterministically depending on the context. The stable-id is used for generating IPv6 stable private addresses with ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy. It is also used to seed the generated cloned MAC address for ethernet.cloned-mac-address=stable and wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable. It is also used as DHCP client identifier with ipv4.dhcp-client-id=stable and to derive the DHCP DUID with ipv6.dhcp-duid=stable-[llt,ll,uuid]. Note that depending on the context where it is used, other parameters are also seeded into the generation algorithm. For example, a per-host key is commonly also included, so that different systems end up generating different IDs. Or with ipv6.addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy, also the device's name is included, so that different interfaces yield different addresses. The per-host key is the identity of your machine and stored in /var/lib/NetworkManager/secret-key. The '$' character is treated special to perform dynamic substitutions at runtime. Currently, supported are "${CONNECTION}", "${DEVICE}", "${MAC}", "${BOOT}", "${RANDOM}". These effectively create unique IDs per-connection, per-device, per-boot, or every time. Note that "${DEVICE}" corresponds to the interface name of the device and "${MAC}" is the permanent MAC address of the device. Any unrecognized patterns following '$' are treated verbatim, however are reserved for future use. You are thus advised to avoid '$' or escape it as "$$". For example, set it to "${CONNECTION}-${BOOT}-${DEVICE}" to create a unique id for this connection that changes with every reboot and differs depending on the interface where the profile activates. If the value is unset, a global connection default is consulted. If the value is still unset, the default is similar to "${CONNECTION}" and uses a unique, fixed ID for the connection.</td>
