Work without a daemon. Makes connection add and + connection modify commands accept and produce connection + data via standard input/output. Ordinarily, nmcli would communicate with + the NetworkManager service.
+The connection data format (keyfile) is described in + nm-settings-keyfile(5) + manual.

Show nmcli version.

+ checkpoint

+ Runs the command with a configuration checkpoint taken and asks for a + confirmation when finished. When the confirmation is not given, the + checkpoint is automatically restored after timeout. +This allows doing disruptive configuration changes over remote + connections with an option of restoring the network configuration to a + known good state in case of an error. +If the a list of interface names is specified, the checkpoint is + taken, the checkpoint is takes only on the specified devices. Otherwise + a checkpoint is taken for all devices. +Currently the timeout defaults to 15 seconds. This may change in + a future version. + |
