It is used - to set up various aspects of NetworkManager's behavior. The - location of the main file and configuration directories may be changed - through use of the , , - , and - argument for NetworkManager, respectively. - - If a default NetworkManager.conf is - provided by your distribution's packages, you should not modify - it, since your changes may get overwritten by package - updates. Instead, you can add additional .conf - files to the /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d directory. - These will be read in order, with later files overriding earlier ones. - Packages might install further configuration snippets to /usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d. - This directory is parsed first, even before NetworkManager.conf. - The loading of a file /usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/name.conf - can be prevented by adding a file /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/name.conf. - In this case, the file from the etc configuration shadows the file from the - system configuration directory. - - - NetworkManager can overwrite certain user configuration options via D-Bus or other internal - operations. In this case it writes those changes to /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-intern.conf. - This file is not intended to be modified by the user, but it is read last and can shadow - user configuration from NetworkManager.conf. - - - - - - File Format - - The configuration file format is so-called key file (sort of - ini-style format). It consists of sections (groups) of - key-value pairs. Lines beginning with a '#' and blank lines are - considered comments. Sections are started by a header line - containing the section enclosed in '[' and ']', and ended - implicitly by the start of the next section or the end of the - file. Each key-value pair must be contained in a section. - - - For keys that take a list of devices as their value, you can - specify devices by their MAC addresses or interface names, or - "*" to specify all devices. See - below. - - - Minimal system settings configuration file looks like this: - -[main] -plugins=keyfile - - - - As an extension to the normal keyfile format, you can also - append a value to a previously-set list-valued key by doing: - -plugins+=another-plugin -plugins-=remove-me - - - - - - <literal>main</literal> section - - - plugins - - - Lists system settings plugin names separated by ','. These - plugins are used to read and write system-wide - connections. When multiple plugins are specified, the - connections are read from all listed plugins. When writing - connections, the plugins will be asked to save the - connection in the order listed here; if the first plugin - cannot write out that connection type (or can't write out - any connections) the next plugin is tried, etc. If none of - the plugins can save the connection, an error is returned - to the user. - - - If NetworkManager defines a distro-specific - network-configuration plugin for your system, then that - will normally be listed here. (See below for the available - plugins.) Note that the keyfile plugin - is always appended to the end of this list (if it doesn't - already appear earlier in the list), so if there is no - distro-specific plugin for your system then you can leave - this key unset and NetworkManager will fall back to using - keyfile. - - - - - monitor-connection-files - Whether the configured settings plugin(s) - should set up file monitors and immediately pick up changes - made to connection files while NetworkManager is running. This - is disabled by default; NetworkManager will only read - the connection files at startup, and when explicitly requested - via the ReloadConnections D-Bus call. If this key is set to - 'true', then NetworkManager will reload - connection files any time they changed. - Automatic reloading is not advised because there are race conditions - involved and it depends on the way how the editor updates the file. - In some situations, NetworkManager might first delete and add the - connection anew, instead of updating the existing one. Also, NetworkManager - might pick up incomplete settings while the user is still editing the files. - - - - auth-polkit - Whether the system uses PolicyKit for authorization. - If false, all requests will be allowed. If - true, non-root requests are authorized using PolicyKit. - The default value is @NM_CONFIG_DEFAULT_AUTH_POLKIT_TEXT@. - - - - dhcp - This key sets up what DHCP client - NetworkManager will use. Allowed values are - dhclient, dhcpcd, and - internal. The dhclient - and dhcpcd options require the indicated - clients to be installed. The internal - option uses a built-in DHCP client which is not currently as - featureful as the external clients. - If this key is missing, available DHCP clients are - looked for in this order: dhclient, - dhcpcd, - internal. - - - no-auto-default - Specify devices for which - NetworkManager shouldn't create default wired connection - (Auto eth0). By default, NetworkManager creates a temporary - wired connection for any Ethernet device that is managed and - doesn't have a connection configured. List a device in this - option to inhibit creating the default connection for the - device. May have the special value * to - apply to all devices. - When the default wired connection is deleted or saved - to a new persistent connection by a plugin, the device is - added to a list in the file - /var/run/NetworkManager/no-auto-default.state - to prevent creating the default connection for that device - again. - See for the syntax how to - specify a device. - - - Example: - -no-auto-default=00:22:68:5c:5d:c4,00:1e:65:ff:aa:ee -no-auto-default=eth0,eth1 -no-auto-default=* - - - - - - - ignore-carrier - - - Specify devices for which NetworkManager will (partially) - ignore the carrier state. Normally, for - device types that support carrier-detect, such as Ethernet - and InfiniBand, NetworkManager will only allow a - connection to be activated on the device if carrier is - present (ie, a cable is plugged in), and it will - deactivate the device if carrier drops for more than a few - seconds. - - - Listing a device here will allow activating connections on - that device even when it does not have carrier, provided - that the connection uses only statically-configured IP - addresses. Additionally, it will allow any active - connection (whether static or dynamic) to remain active on - the device when carrier is lost. - - - Note that the "carrier" property of NMDevices and device D-Bus - interfaces will still reflect the actual device state; it's just - that NetworkManager will not make use of that information. - - See for the syntax how to - specify a device. - - - - - - assume-ipv6ll-only - - - Specify devices for which NetworkManager will try to - generate a connection based on initial configuration when - the device only has an IPv6 link-local address. - - See for the syntax how to - specify a device. - - - - - - configure-and-quit - - - When set to 'true', NetworkManager quits after - performing initial network configuration but spawns small helpers - to preserve DHCP leases and IPv6 addresses. This is useful in - environments where network setup is more or less static or it is - desirable to save process time but still handle some dynamic - configurations. When this option is true, - network configuration for WiFi, WWAN, Bluetooth, ADSL, and PPPoE - interfaces cannot be preserved due to their use of external - services, and these devices will be deconfigured when NetworkManager - quits even though other interface's configuration may be preserved. - Also, to preserve DHCP addresses the 'dhcp' option - must be set to 'internal'. The default value of - the 'configure-and-quit' option is - 'false', meaning that NetworkManager will continue - running after initial network configuration and continue responding - to system and hardware events, D-Bus requests, and user commands. - - - - - - dns - Set the DNS (resolv.conf) processing mode. - default: The default if the key is - not specified. NetworkManager will update - resolv.conf to reflect the nameservers - provided by currently active connections. - dnsmasq: NetworkManager will run - dnsmasq as a local caching nameserver, using a "split DNS" - configuration if you are connected to a VPN, and then update - resolv.conf to point to the local - nameserver. - unbound: NetworkManager will talk - to unbound and dnssec-triggerd, providing a "split DNS" - configuration with DNSSEC support. The /etc/resolv.conf - will be managed by dnssec-trigger daemon. - none: NetworkManager will not - modify resolv.conf. - - - - - rc-manager - Set the resolv.conf - management mode. The default value depends on how NetworkManager - was built. Regardless of this setting, NetworkManager will - always write resolv.conf to its runtime state directory. - none: NetworkManager will symlink - /etc/resolv.conf to its private - resolv.conf file in the runtime state directory. - file: NetworkManager will write - /etc/resolv.conf as file. - resolvconf: NetworkManager will run - resolvconf to update the DNS configuration. - netconfig: NetworkManager will run - netconfig to update the DNS configuration. - - - - - debug - Comma separated list of options to aid - debugging. This value will be combined with the environment - variable NM_DEBUG. Currently the following - values are supported: - - RLIMIT_CORE: set ulimit -c unlimited - to write out core dumps. Beware, that a core dump can contain - sensitive information such as passwords or configuration settings. - - - fatal-warnings: set g_log_set_always_fatal() - to core dump on warning messages from glib. This is equivalent - to the --g-fatal-warnings command line option. - - - - - - - - - <literal>keyfile</literal> section - This section contains keyfile-plugin-specific options, and - is normally only used when you are not using any other - distro-specific plugin. - - - - - hostname - This key is deprecated and has no effect - since the hostname is now stored in /etc/hostname or other - system configuration files according to build options. - - - - path - - The location where keyfiles are read and stored. - This defaults to "@NM_CONFIG_KEYFILE_PATH_DEFAULT@". - - - - - unmanaged-devices - Set devices that should be ignored by - NetworkManager. - - See for the syntax how to - specify a device. - - - Example: - -unmanaged-devices=interface-name:em4 -unmanaged-devices=mac:00:22:68:1c:59:b1;mac:00:1E:65:30:D1:C4;interface-name:eth2 - - - - - - - - - - <literal>ifupdown</literal> section - This section contains ifupdown-specific options and thus only - has effect when using the ifupdown plugin. - - - - - managed - If set to true, then - interfaces listed in - /etc/network/interfaces are managed by - NetworkManager. If set to false, then - any interface listed in - /etc/network/interfaces will be ignored - by NetworkManager. Remember that NetworkManager controls the - default route, so because the interface is ignored, - NetworkManager may assign the default route to some other - interface. - - The default value is false. - - - - - - - - - <literal>logging</literal> section - This section controls NetworkManager's logging. Any - settings here are overridden by the - and command-line options. - - - - - level - The default logging verbosity level. - One of OFF, ERR, - WARN, INFO, - DEBUG, TRACE. The ERR - level logs only critical errors. WARN logs warnings that may - reflect operation. INFO logs various informational messages that - are useful for tracking state and operations. DEBUG enables - verbose logging for debugging purposes. TRACE enables even more - verbose logging then DEBUG level. Subsequent levels also log - all messages from earlier levels; thus setting the log level - to INFO also logs error and warning messages. - - - domains - The following log domains are available: - PLATFORM, RFKILL, ETHER, WIFI, BT, MB, DHCP4, DHCP6, PPP, - WIFI_SCAN, IP4, IP6, AUTOIP4, DNS, VPN, SHARING, SUPPLICANT, - AGENTS, SETTINGS, SUSPEND, CORE, DEVICE, OLPC, WIMAX, - INFINIBAND, FIREWALL, ADSL, BOND, VLAN, BRIDGE, DBUS_PROPS, - TEAM, CONCHECK, DCB, DISPATCH, AUDIT. - In addition, these special domains can be used: NONE, - ALL, DEFAULT, DHCP, IP. - You can specify per-domain log level overrides by - adding a colon and a log level to any domain. E.g., - "WIFI:DEBUG,WIFI_SCAN:OFF". - - - Domain descriptions: - - PLATFORM : OS (platform) operations - RFKILL : RFKill subsystem operations - ETHER : Ethernet device operations - WIFI : Wi-Fi device operations - BT : Bluetooth operations - MB : Mobile broadband operations - DHCP4 : DHCP for IPv4 - DHCP6 : DHCP for IPv6 - PPP : Point-to-point protocol operations - WIFI_SCAN : Wi-Fi scanning operations - IP4 : IPv4-related operations - IP6 : IPv6-related operations - AUTOIP4 : AutoIP operations - DNS : Domain Name System related operations - VPN : Virtual Private Network connections and operations - SHARING : Connection sharing - SUPPLICANT : WPA supplicant related operations - AGENTS : Secret agents operations and communication - SETTINGS : Settings/config service operations - SUSPEND : Suspend/resume - CORE : Core daemon and policy operations - DEVICE : Activation and general interface operations - OLPC : OLPC Mesh device operations - WIMAX : WiMAX device operations - INFINIBAND : InfiniBand device operations - FIREWALL : FirewallD related operations - ADSL : ADSL device operations - BOND : Bonding operations - VLAN : VLAN operations - BRIDGE : Bridging operations - DBUS_PROPS : D-Bus property changes - TEAM : Teaming operations - CONCHECK : Connectivity check - DCB : Data Center Bridging (DCB) operations - DISPATCH : Dispatcher scripts - AUDIT : Audit records - - NONE : when given by itself logging is disabled - ALL : all log domains - DEFAULT : default log domains - DHCP : shortcut for "DHCP4,DHCP6" - IP : shortcut for "IP4,IP6" - - HW : deprecated alias for "PLATFORM" - - - - - backend - The logging backend. Supported values - are "debug", "syslog", - "journal". - "debug" uses syslog and logs to standard error. - If NetworkManager is started in debug mode (--debug) - this option is ignored and "debug" is always used. - Otherwise, the default is "@NM_CONFIG_LOGGING_BACKEND_DEFAULT_TEXT@". - - - - audit - Whether the audit records are delivered to - auditd, the audit daemon. If false, audit - records will be sent only to the NetworkManager logging - system. If set to true, they will be also - sent to auditd. The default value is @NM_CONFIG_DEFAULT_LOGGING_AUDIT_TEXT@. - - - - - - - - <literal>connection</literal> section - Specify default values for connections. - - - Example: - -[connection] -ipv6.ip6-privacy=0 - - - - Supported Properties - - Not all properties can be overwritten, only the following - properties are supported to have their default values configured - (see nm-settings5 for details). - A default value is only consulted if the corresponding per-connection value - explicitly allows for that. - - - connection.autoconnect-slaves - - - connection.lldp - - - ethernet.wake-on-lan - - - ipv4.dad-timeout - - - ipv4.dhcp-timeout - If left unspecified, the default value for - the interface type is used. - - - ipv4.route-metric - - - ipv6.ip6-privacy - If ipv6.ip6-privacy is unset, use the content of - "/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default/use_tempaddr" as last fallback. - - - - ipv6.route-metric - - - vpn.timeout - If left unspecified, default value of 60 seconds is used. - - - wifi.mac-address-randomization - If left unspecified, MAC address randomization is disabled. - - - wifi.powersave - If left unspecified, the default value - "ignore" will be used. - - - - - - - Sections - - You can configure multiple connection - sections, by having different sections with a name that all start - with "connection". - Example: - -[connection] -ipv6.ip6-privacy=0 -connection.autoconnect-slaves=1 -vpn.timeout=120 - -[connection-wifi-wlan0] -match-device=interface-name:wlan0 -ipv4.route-metric=50 - -[connection-wifi-other] -match-device=type:wifi -ipv4.route-metric=55 -ipv6.ip6-privacy=1 - - - - - The sections within one file are considered in order of appearance, with the - exception that the [connection] section is always - considered last. In the example above, this order is [connection-wifi-wlan0], - [connection-wlan-other], and [connection]. - When checking for a default configuration value, the sections are searched until - the requested value is found. - In the example above, "ipv4.route-metric" for wlan0 interface is set to 50, - and for all other Wi-Fi typed interfaces to 55. Also, Wi-Fi devices would have - IPv6 private addresses enabled by default, but other devices would have it disabled. - Note that also "wlan0" gets "ipv6.ip6-privacy=1", because although the section - "[connection-wifi-wlan0]" matches the device, it does not contain that property - and the search continues. - - - When having different sections in multiple files, sections from files that are read - later have higher priority. So within one file the priority of the sections is - top-to-bottom. Across multiple files later definitions take precedence. - - - - The following properties further control how a connection section applies. - - - match-device - An optional device spec that restricts - when the section applies. See - for the possible values. - - - - stop-match - An optional boolean value which defaults to - no. If the section matches (based on - match-device), further sections will not be - considered even if the property in question is not present. In - the example above, if [connection-wifi-wlan0] would - have stop-match set to yes, - its ipv6.ip6-privacy value would be - unspecified. - - - - - - - - - <literal>connectivity</literal> section - This section controls NetworkManager's optional connectivity - checking functionality. This allows NetworkManager to detect - whether or not the system can actually access the internet or - whether it is behind a captive portal. - - - - - uri - The URI of a web page to periodically - request when connectivity is being checked. This page - should return the header "X-NetworkManager-Status" with a - value of "online". Alternatively, it's body content should - be set to "NetworkManager is online". The body content - check can be controlled by the response - option. If this option is blank or missing, connectivity - checking is disabled. - - - - interval - Specified in seconds; controls how often - connectivity is checked when a network connection exists. If - set to 0 connectivity checking is disabled. If missing, the - default is 300 seconds. - - - response - If set controls what body content - NetworkManager checks for when requesting the URI for - connectivity checking. If missing, defaults to - "NetworkManager is online" - - - - - - - <literal>global-dns</literal> section - This section specifies global DNS settings that override - connection-specific configuration. - - - - searches - - - A list of search domains to be used during hostname lookup. - - - - - options - - - A list of of options to be passed to the hostname resolver. - - - - - - - - - <literal>global-dns-domain</literal> sections - Sections with a name starting with the "global-dns-domain-" - prefix allow to define global DNS configuration for specific - domains. The part of section name after "global-dns-domain-" - specifies the domain name a section applies to. More specific - domains have the precedence over less specific ones and the - default domain is represented by the wildcard "*". A default - domain section is mandatory. - - - - - servers - - - A list of addresses of DNS servers to be used for the given domain. - - - - - options - - - A list of domain-specific DNS options. Not used at the moment. - - - - - - - - - <literal>.config</literal> sections - This is a special section that contains options which apply - to the configuration file that contains the option. - - - - - enable - - - Defaults to "true". If "false", - the configuration file will be skipped during loading. - Note that the main configuration file NetworkManager.conf - cannot be disabled. - -# always skip loading the config file -[.config] -enable=false - - - - You can also match against the version of NetworkManager. For example - the following are valid configurations: - -# only load on version 1.0.6 -[.config] -enable=nm-version:1.0.6 - -# load on all versions 1.0.x, but not 1.2.x -[.config] -enable=nm-version:1.0 - -# only load on versions >= 1.1.6. This does not match -# with version 1.2.0 or 1.4.4. Only the last digit is considered. -[.config] -enable=nm-version-min:1.1.6 - -# only load on versions >= 1.2. Contrary to the previous -# example, this also matches with 1.2.0, 1.2.10, 1.4.4, etc. -[.config] -enable=nm-version-min:1.2 - -# Match against the maximum allowed version. The example matches -# versions 1.2.0, 1.2.2, 1.2.4. Again, only the last version digit -# is allowed to be smaller. So this would not match match on 1.1.10. -[.config] -enable=nm-version-max:1.2.6 - - - - You can also match against the value of the environment variable - NM_CONFIG_ENABLE_TAG, like: - -# always skip loading the file when running NetworkManager with -# environment variable "NM_CONFIG_ENABLE_TAG=TAG1" -[.config] -enable=env:TAG1 - - - - More then one match can be specified. The configuration will be - enabled if one of the predicates matches ("or"). The special prefix "except:" can - be used to negate the match. Note that if one except-predicate - matches, the entire configuration will be disabled. - In other words, a except predicate always wins over other predicates. - -# enable the configuration either when the environment variable -# is present or the version is at least 1.2.0. -[.config] -enable=env:TAG2,nm-version-min:1.2 - -# enable the configuration for version >= 1.2.0, but disable -# it when the environment variable is set to "TAG3" -[.config] -enable=except:env:TAG3,nm-version-min:1.2 - -# enable the configuration on >= 1.3, >= 1.2.6, and >= 1.0.16. -# Useful if a certain feature is only present since those releases. -[.config] -enable=nm-version-min:1.3,nm-version-min:1.2.6,nm-version-min:1.0.16 - - - - - - - - - - Plugins - - - - keyfile - - - The keyfile plugin is the generic - plugin that supports all the connection types and - capabilities that NetworkManager has. It writes files out - in an .ini-style format in - /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections. - - - The stored connection file may contain passwords and - private keys, so it will be made readable only to root, - and the plugin will ignore files that are readable or - writable by any user or group other than root. - - - This plugin is always active, and will automatically be - used to store any connections that aren't supported by any - other active plugin. - - - - - ifcfg-rh - - - This plugin is used on the Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise - Linux distributions to read and write configuration from - the standard - /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* - files. It currently supports reading Ethernet, Wi-Fi, - InfiniBand, VLAN, Bond, Bridge, and Team connections. - Enabling ifcfg-rh implicitly enables - ibft plugin, if it is available. - This can be disabled by adding no-ibft. - - - - - - ifcfg-suse - - - This plugin is deprecated and its selection has no effect. - The keyfile plugin should be used - instead. - - - - - - ifupdown - - - This plugin is used on the Debian and Ubuntu - distributions, and reads Ethernet and Wi-Fi connections - from /etc/network/interfaces. - - - This plugin is read-only; any connections (of any type) - added from within NetworkManager when you are using this - plugin will be saved using the keyfile - plugin instead. - - - - - - ibft, no-ibft - - - This plugin allows to read iBFT configuration (iSCSI Boot Firmware Table). - The configuration is read using /sbin/iscsiadm. Users are expected to - configure iBFT connections via the firmware interfaces. - If ibft support is available, it is automatically enabled after - ifcfg-rh. This can be disabled by no-ibft. - You can also explicitly specify ibft to load the - plugin without ifcfg-rh or to change the plugin order. - - - - - - - - - Appendix - - Device List Format - - The configuration options main.no-auto-default, main.ignore-carrier, - and keyfile.unmanaged-devices select devices based on a list of matchings. - Devices can be specified using the following format: - - - - - * - Matches every device. - - - IFNAME - Case sensitive match of interface name of the device. Globbing is not supported. - - - HWADDR - Match the MAC address of the device. Globbing is not supported - - - interface-name:IFNAME - interface-name:~IFNAME - Case sensitive match of interface name of the device. Simple globbing is supported with - * and ?. Ranges and escaping is not supported. - - - interface-name:=IFNAME - Case sensitive match of interface name of the device. Globbing is disabled and IFNAME - is taken literally. - - - mac:HWADDR - Match the MAC address of the device. Globbing is not supported - - - s390-subchannels:HWADDR - Match the device based on the subchannel address. Globbing is not supported - - - type:TYPE - Match the device type. Valid type names are as reported by "nmcli -f GENERAL.TYPE device show". - Globbing is not supported. - - - except:SPEC - Negative match of a device. SPEC must be explicitly qualified with - a prefix such as interface-name:. A negative match has higher priority then the positive - matches above. - - - SPEC[,;]SPEC - Multiple specs can be concatenated with commas or semicolons. The order does not matter as - matches are either inclusive or negative (except:), with negative matches having higher - priority. - - Backslash is supported to escape the separators ';' and ',', and to express special - characters such as newline ('\n'), tabulator ('\t'), whitespace ('\s') and backslash ('\\'). The globbing of - interface names cannot be escaped. Whitespace is not a separator but will be trimmed between - two specs (unless escaped as '\s'). - - - - - - - Example: - -interface-name:em4 -mac:00:22:68:1c:59:b1;mac:00:1E:65:30:D1:C4;interface-name:eth2 -interface-name:vboxnet*,except:interface-name:vboxnet2 -*,except:mac:00:22:68:1c:59:b1 - - - - - - - See Also - - NetworkManager8, - nmcli1, - nmcli-examples7, - nm-online1, - nm-settings5, - nm-applet1, - nm-connection-editor1 - - - -- cgit 1.3.0-6-gf8a5
