I just tried this and works like a charm! I had no idea about this option.

It doesn't pick-up the changes. I even tried: nmcli con down my-new-em1 nmcli dev disconnect em1 nmcli con up my-new-em1 nmcli con reload ...but still the same problem. Is there any missing command to perform the proper reconnect cycle? Thanks!
