operations. These permissions or actions (using polkit language) are configured
by a system administrator and are not meant to be changed by users. The usual
place for the polkit configuration is /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.policy.

This example demonstrates adding a bond master connection and two slaves. The
first command adds a master bond connection, naming the bonding interface
<span class="emphasis"><em>mybond0</em></span> and using <span class="emphasis"><em>active-backup</em></span> mode.
The next two commands add slaves connections, both enslaved to <span class="emphasis"><em>mybond0</em></span>.

<code class="prompt">$ </code><strong class="userinput"><code>nmcli con add type ethernet con-name Team1-slave2 ifname em2 master Team1</code></strong></pre>
<p>
This example demonstrates adding a team master connection profile and two slaves. It is
very similar to the bonding example. The first command adds a master team profile, naming
the team interface and the profile <span class="emphasis"><em>Team1</em></span>. The team configuration
for the master is read from <span class="emphasis"><em>team1-master-json.conf</em></span> file. Later, you can
change the configuration with <span class="emphasis"><em>modify</em></span> command
(<span class="bold"><strong>nmcli con modify Team1 team.config team1-master-another-json.conf</strong></span>).
The last two commands add slaves profiles, both enslaved to <span class="emphasis"><em>Team1</em></span>.
The first slave will be bound to <span class="emphasis"><em>em1</em></span> interface, the second to
<span class="emphasis"><em>em2</em></span>. The slaves don't specify <span class="emphasis"><em>config</em></span> and thus
<span class="emphasis"><em>teamd</em></span> will use its default configuration. You will activate the whole setup
by activating both slaves:
</p>
<pre class="screen"> <code class="prompt">$ </code><strong class="userinput"><code>nmcli con up Team1-slave1</code></strong>
<code class="prompt">$ </code><strong class="userinput"><code>nmcli con up Team1-slave2</code></strong></pre>
<p>
By default, the created profiles are marked for auto-activation. But if another
connection has been activated on the device, the new profile won't activate
automatically and you need to activate it manually.

This example demonstrates adding a bridge master connection and two slaves. The
first command adds a master bridge connection, naming the bridge interface and
the profile as <span class="emphasis"><em>TowerBridge</em></span>.
The next two commands add slaves profiles, both will be enslaved to
<span class="emphasis"><em>TowerBridge</em></span>.
The first slave will be tied to <span class="emphasis"><em>ens3</em></span> interface, the second to

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

<p>
This dispatcher script makes Wi-Fi mutually exclusive with wired
networking. When a wired interface is connected, Wi-Fi will be set
to airplane mode (rfkilled). When the wired interface is disconnected,
Wi-Fi will be turned back on.
Name this script e.g. 70-wifi-wired-exclusive.sh and put it into /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/
directory.
See <a class="link" href="NetworkManager.html" title="NetworkManager"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">NetworkManager</span>(8)</span></a>
manual page for more information about NetworkManager dispatcher scripts.
