I get this  behavior when I use a bridge or an ordinary wired ethernet
(eth0) for network connection iff this interface is not managed by
NetworkManager but defined in /etc/network/interfaces.

Problem is (at least to my experience) that NetworkManager cannot open
an VPN over a working connection that it does not manage itself.

Feature requests:
1. NetworkManager should search for and report properties of ALL network 
connections, even these not managed by itself. Working connections not managed 
by NetworkManager should marked like 'not managed by NM'.

2. NetworkManager should be able to use every working connection as basis for a 
VPN.

I am using ubuntu 12.04 LTS i386 32bit and NM from package 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu4.2
