Hi,
I need to set the "description" field out of nmstate so I can mark some
interfaces that will be processed by nmstate later on. Do you know if it's
possible to do it with nmcli or busctl/dbus-send ?
Hi Quique,
With these command:
nmcli -f NAME,DBUS-PATH,FILENAME c show
You will get confutation file or dbus path of the setting.
You may chose any of this way:
* Parse configuration file and search for `nmstate.interface.description`
* Use dbus method GetSettings
* Submit feature request to NetworkManager asking for nmcli showing user
section.
Example output of qdbus command:
[fge@c8s eth]$ sudo qdbus --literal --system \
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/2 \
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings.Connection.GetSettings
