Hi Is it somehow possible to disable an interface via NetworkManager?
I am thinking of something like: nmcli connection modify con-eth0 802-3-ethernet.phy disabled nmcli connection up con-eth0 which would basically have the same effect as: ip link set eth0 down nmcli connection modify con-eth0 802-3-ethernet.phy enabled nmcli connection up con-eth0 which would basically have the same effect as: ip link set eth0 up The background is a security requirement. Unused interfaces must ideally remain disabled at the physical layer when a cable is plugged in. Ideally, the LEDs would also remain dark. If this function does not exist yet, would it be interesting for NetworkManager? Could the functionality be implemented with reasonable effort or would it be difficult to implement? Thank you and regards, Adrian _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
