This is similar to sending SIGHUP to NetworkManager but it allows for more fine-grained control over what to reload (see flags). It also allows non-root access via PolicyKit and contrary to signals it is synchronous. No flags (0x00) means to reload everything that is supported which is identical to sending a SIGHUP. (0x01) means to reload the NetworkManager.conf configuration from disk. Note that this does not include connections, which can be reloaded via Setting's ReloadConnections. (0x02) means to update DNS configuration, which usually involves writing /etc/resolv.conf anew. (0x04) means to restart the DNS plugin. This is for example useful when using dnsmasq plugin, which uses additional configuration in /etc/NetworkManager/dnsmasq.d. If you edit those files, you can restart the DNS plugin. This action shortly interrupts name resolution. Note that flags may affect each other. For example, restarting the DNS plugin (0x04) implicitly updates DNS too (0x02). Or when reloading the configuration (0x01), changes to DNS setting also cause a DNS update (0x02). However, (0x01) does not involve restarting the DNS plugin (0x04) or update resolv.conf (0x02), unless the DNS related configuration changes in NetworkManager.conf. IN u flags: optional flags to specify which parts shall be reloaded. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.GetDevices() GetDevices (OUT ao devices); Get the list of realized network devices. OUT ao devices: List of object paths of network devices known to the system. This list does not include device placeholders (see GetAllDevices()). org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.GetAllDevices() GetAllDevices (OUT ao devices); Get the list of all network devices. OUT ao devices: List of object paths of network devices and device placeholders (eg, devices that do not yet exist but which can be automatically created by NetworkManager if one of their AvailableConnections was activated). org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.GetDeviceByIpIface() GetDeviceByIpIface (IN s iface, OUT o device); Return the object path of the network device referenced by its IP interface name. Note that some devices (usually modems) only have an IP interface name when they are connected. IN s iface: Interface name of the device to find. OUT o device: Object path of the network device. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.ActivateConnection() ActivateConnection (IN o connection, IN o device, IN o specific_object, OUT o active_connection); Activate a connection using the supplied device. IN o connection: The connection to activate. If "/" is given, a valid device path must be given, and NetworkManager picks the best connection to activate for the given device. VPN connections must always pass a valid connection path. IN o device: The object path of device to be activated for physical connections. This parameter is ignored for VPN connections, because the specific_object (if provided) specifies the device to use. IN o specific_object: The path of a connection-type-specific object this activation should use. This parameter is currently ignored for wired and mobile broadband connections, and the value of "/" should be used (ie, no specific object). For WiFi connections, pass the object path of a specific AP from the card's scan list, or "/" to pick an AP automatically. For VPN connections, pass the object path of an ActiveConnection object that should serve as the "base" connection (to which the VPN connections lifetime will be tied), or pass "/" and NM will automatically use the current default device. OUT o active_connection: The path of the active connection object representing this active connection. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.AddAndActivateConnection() AddAndActivateConnection (IN a{sa{sv}} connection, IN o device, IN o specific_object, OUT o path, OUT o active_connection); Adds a new connection using the given details (if any) as a template (automatically filling in missing settings with the capabilities of the given device and specific object), then activate the new connection. Cannot be used for VPN connections at this time. IN a{sa{sv}} connection: Connection settings and properties; if incomplete missing settings will be automatically completed using the given device and specific object. IN o device: The object path of device to be activated using the given connection. IN o specific_object: The path of a connection-type-specific object this activation should use. This parameter is currently ignored for wired and mobile broadband connections, and the value of "/" should be used (ie, no specific object). For WiFi connections, pass the object path of a specific AP from the card's scan list, which will be used to complete the details of the newly added connection. OUT o path: Object path of the new connection that was just added. OUT o active_connection: The path of the active connection object representing this active connection. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.DeactivateConnection() DeactivateConnection (IN o active_connection); Deactivate an active connection. IN o active_connection: The currently active connection to deactivate. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Sleep() Sleep (IN b sleep); Control the NetworkManager daemon's sleep state. When asleep, all interfaces that it manages are deactivated. When awake, devices are available to be activated. This command should not be called directly by users or clients; it is intended for system suspend/resume tracking. IN b sleep: Indicates whether the NetworkManager daemon should sleep or wake. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Enable() Enable (IN b enable); Control whether overall networking is enabled or disabled. When disabled, all interfaces that NM manages are deactivated. When enabled, all managed interfaces are re-enabled and available to be activated. This command should be used by clients that provide to users the ability to enable/disable all networking. IN b enable: If FALSE, indicates that all networking should be disabled. If TRUE, indicates that NetworkManager should begin managing network devices. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.GetPermissions() GetPermissions (OUT a{ss} permissions); Returns the permissions a caller has for various authenticated operations that NetworkManager provides, like Enable/Disable networking, changing WiFi, WWAN, and WiMAX state, etc. OUT a{ss} permissions: Dictionary of available permissions and results. Each permission is represented by a name (ie "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Foobar") and each result is one of the following values: "yes" (the permission is available), "auth" (the permission is available after a successful authentication), or "no" (the permission is denied). Clients may use these values in the UI to indicate the ability to perform certain operations. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.SetLogging() SetLogging (IN s level, IN s domains); Set logging verbosity and which operations are logged. IN s level: One of [ERR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE, OFF, KEEP]. This level is applied to the domains as specified in the domains argument. Except for the special level "KEEP", all unmentioned domains are disabled entirely. "KEEP" is special and allows not to change the current setting except for the specified domains. E.g. level=KEEP and domains=PLATFORM:DEBUG will only touch the platform domain. IN s domains: A combination of logging domains separated by commas (','), or "NONE" to disable logging. Each domain enables logging for operations related to that domain. Available domains are: [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 to these domains, the following special domains can be used: [NONE, ALL, DEFAULT, DHCP, IP]. You can also specify that some domains should log at a different level from the default by appending a colon (':') and a log level (eg, 'WIFI:DEBUG'). If an empty string is given, the log level is changed but the current set of log domains remains unchanged. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.GetLogging() GetLogging (OUT s level, OUT s domains); Get current logging verbosity level and operations domains. OUT s level: One of [ERR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE].

OUT u connectivity: (NMConnectivityState) The current connectivity state. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.state() state (OUT u state); The overall networking state as determined by the NetworkManager daemon, based on the state of network devices under it's management. OUT u state: NMState org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.CheckpointCreate() CheckpointCreate (IN ao devices, IN u rollback_timeout, IN u flags, OUT o checkpoint); devices: a list of device paths for which a checkpoint should be created. An empty list means all devices. rollback_timeout: the time in seconds until NetworkManager will automatically rollback to the checkpoint. Set to zero for infinite. flags: optional flags that influence the creation. checkpoint: on success, returns the path of the checkpoint. Create a checkpoint of the current networking configuration for given interfaces. If rollback_timeout is not zero, a rollback is automatically performed after the given timeout. IN ao devices: IN u rollback_timeout: IN u flags: OUT o checkpoint: org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.CheckpointDestroy() CheckpointDestroy (IN o checkpoint); Destroy a previously created checkpoint. IN o checkpoint: the checkpoint to be destroyed. Set to empty to cancel all pending checkpoints. org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.CheckpointRollback() CheckpointRollback (IN o checkpoint, OUT a{su} result); Rollback a checkpoint before the timeout is reached. IN o checkpoint: the checkpoint to be rolled back. OUT a{su} result: on return, a dictionary of devices and results.
