Excluding a group of interfaces
Hello NM List, I need to exclude a group of interfaces from being managed by NM. I'm running Ubuntu and wanted to use /etc/network/interfaces in conjunction with manged=false in [ifupdown] section. However I need NM to ignore a whole bunch of interfaces based on the wildcard in the name. For example ignore all interfaces whose name starts with abc. I tried adding iface abc* to /etc/network/interfaces but it seems like globs are not supported. All these interfaces are veth devices so ignoring by device type would also work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Eugene ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
Not sure on confirmation
Hello , I just joined the mailinglist and am not sure if it confirmed all right. My reason for joining the list is I have some problem with network manager,not working.

New to debian, and the mail list
Hello every one, I am new to this mail list, also just a few days ago installed debian , all though the install went fine, the only thing is network manger is not working to well, it does pick up my broad band mobile usb device, but does not pick up on the offices wifi or wlan connection, which is what I want to use, the broadband usb device is very expensive for me, and the office, wifi or wlan is free, I do not know much about this, and normally let everything configure automaticly. When I installed xubuntu on a different partition, the network connections or manager worked fine, all I needed to do is put in the password for the office modem, in the security part and it works fine. I would need to know what information anyone will need, if they have some ideas, please let me know what is needed. thanks From Garry ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

Unavailable, managed device.
Hi, I currently trying to get NM to handle a virtual wlan device and can't get it to work. Its the second connection of an Intel 7260, the first one being used as an access point managed outside of NM. The OS is an Ubuntu Server 12.04 running NM 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu4.4.1 uname: 3.13.0-43-generic #72~precise1-Ubuntu SMP i686 i386 When I do everything manually through ip/iw/iwlist everything works fine but I now need to integrate it with the rest of our software that handles the network configuration using NM via DBus. I create the iface using the following command: iw dev wlan0 interface add wlan1 type station Here's what NM gives me: $ nmcli dev list iface wlan1 GENERAL.DEVICE: wlan1 GENERAL.TYPE: 802-11-wireless GENERAL.VENDOR: Intel Corporation GENERAL.PRODUCT:Wireless 7260 GENERAL.DRIVER: iwlwifi GENERAL.HWADDR: F8:16:54:55:A5:9C GENERAL.STATE: 20 (unavailable) GENERAL.REASON: 2 (Device is now managed) GENERAL.UDI: /sys/devices/pci:00/:00:1c.5/:02:00.0/net/wlan1 GENERAL.IP-IFACE: GENERAL.NM-MANAGED: yes GENERAL.FIRMWARE-MISSING: no GENERAL.CONNECTION: not connected CAPABILITIES.CARRIER-DETECT:no CAPABILITIES.SPEED: unknown WIFI-PROPERTIES.WEP:yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.WPA:yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.WPA2: yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.TKIP: yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.CCMP: yes Syslog: info (wlan1): using nl80211 for WiFi device control warn (wlan1): driver supports Access Point (AP) mode info (wlan1): new 802.11 WiFi device (driver: 'iwlwifi' ifindex: 28) info (wlan1): exported as /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/4 info (wlan1): now managed info (wlan1): device state change: unmanaged - unavailable (reason 'managed') [10 20 2] info (wlan1): bringing up device. info (wlan1): preparing device. info (wlan1): deactivating device (reason 'managed') [2] I have [ifupdown] managed=false in my NetworkManager.conf and wlan1 does not appear in `/etc/network/interfaces`.

New Austrian telecommunication service provider HoT
Hi. I've tested on a Linux Mint 17.1 system a new telecommunication service provider with network-manager. I write to you since in my used network-manager package (which has the version 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7) this service provider is not integrated until now. *The system on which I've tested is the following:* System: Kernel: 3.13.0-37-generic x86_64 (64 bit, gcc: 4.8.2) Desktop: Gnome Distro: Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca Machine: System: Hewlett-Packard (portable) product: HP Pavilion 17 Notebook PC Mobo: Hewlett-Packard model: 226A version: 73.25 HP Pavilion 17-f151ng (K0W64EA) Bios: American Megatrends version: F.29 date: 08/14/2014 CPU: Quad core AMD A8-6410 APU with AMD Radeon R5 Graphics *Information about this new service provider:* Name: Hofer Telekom, HoT Web: https://www.hot.at/ Country: Austria Information regarding the APN: https://www.hot.at/config/faqs/HoT_Einstellungen_Endgera_te.pdf, page 1 I've attached the file /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ HoT Internet connection Since I had problems with the stabillity (i.e. from ten connection tries through network-manager only one connection could be established) I also tried the connection directly through pppd. And this is much more stable (i.e. 100% connection tries could be established). Cause of this I've created these files: * chat-script file (location /etc/chatscripts): chatscript_hot_internet * peers file (location /etc/ppp/peers): peers_hot_internet Also these files were attached. I hope with this you have all the information to add this new service provider to you package (in case it was not already done). Regards Oliver.
