.SH "NAME"
nm-settings-dbus \- Description of settings and properties of NetworkManager connection profiles on the D\-Bus API
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
NetworkManager is based on a concept of connection profiles, sometimes referred to as connections only\&. These connection profiles contain a network configuration\&. When NetworkManager activates a connection profile on a network device the configuration will be applied and an active network connection will be established\&. Users are free to create as many connection profiles as they see fit\&. Thus they are flexible in having various network configurations for different networking needs\&. The connection profiles are handled by NetworkManager via
\fIsettings service\fR
and are exported on D\-Bus (\fI/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/<num>\fR
objects)\&. The conceptual objects can be described as follows:
.PP
Connection (profile)
.RS 4
A specific, encapsulated, independent group of settings describing all the configuration required to connect to a specific network\&. It is referred to by a unique identifier called the UUID\&. A connection is tied to a one specific device type, but not necessarily a specific hardware device\&. It is composed of one or more
\fISettings\fR
objects\&.
.RE
.PP
Setting
.RS 4
A group of related key/value pairs describing a specific piece of a
\fIConnection (profile)\fR\&. Settings keys and allowed values are described in the tables below\&. Keys are also referred to as properties\&. Developers can find the setting objects and their properties in the libnm\-core sources\&. Look for the
\fB*_class_init\fR
functions near the bottom of each setting source file\&.
.RE
.PP
The settings and properties shown in tables below list all available connection configuration options\&. However, note that not all settings are applicable to all connection types\&. NetworkManager provides a command\-line tool
\fInmcli\fR
that allows direct configuration of the settings and properties according to a connection profile type\&.
\fInmcli\fR
connection editor has also a built\-in
\fIdescribe\fR
command that can display description of particular settings and properties of this page\&.

T{
auth\-retries
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
The number of retries for the authentication\&. Zero means to try indefinitely; \-1 means to use a global default\&. If the global default is not set, the authentication retries for 3 times before failing the connection\&.

Currently, this only applies to 802\-1x authentication\&.
T}
T{
autoconnect
T}:T{
boolean
T}:T{
TRUE
T}:T{
Whether or not the connection should be automatically connected by NetworkManager when the resources for the connection are available\&. TRUE to automatically activate the connection, FALSE to require manual intervention to activate the connection\&.

Autoconnect happens when the circumstances are suitable\&. That means for example that the device is currently managed and not active\&. Autoconnect thus never replaces or competes with an already active profile\&.

Note that autoconnect is not implemented for VPN profiles\&. See "secondaries" as an alternative to automatically connect VPN profiles\&.

If multiple profiles are ready to autoconnect on the same device, the one with the better "connection\&.autoconnect\-priority" is chosen\&. If the priorities are equal, then the most recently connected profile is activated\&. If the profiles were not connected earlier or their "connection\&.timestamp" is identical, the choice is undefined\&.

Depending on "connection\&.multi\-connect", a profile can (auto)connect only once at a time or multiple times\&.
T}
T{
autoconnect\-ports
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether or not ports of this connection should be automatically brought up when NetworkManager activates this connection\&. This only has a real effect for controller connections\&. The properties "autoconnect", "autoconnect\-priority" and "autoconnect\-retries" are unrelated to this setting\&. The permitted values are: 0: leave port connections untouched, 1: activate all the port connections with this connection, \-1: default\&. If \-1 (default) is set, global connection\&.autoconnect\-ports is read to determine the real value\&. If it is default as well, this fallbacks to 0\&.
T}
T{
autoconnect\-priority
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
The autoconnect priority in range \-999 to 999\&. If the connection is set to autoconnect, connections with higher priority will be preferred\&. The higher number means higher priority\&. Defaults to 0\&. Note that this property only matters if there are more than one candidate profile to select for autoconnect\&. In case of equal priority, the profile used most recently is chosen\&.
T}
T{
autoconnect\-retries
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
The number of times a connection should be tried when autoactivating before giving up\&. Zero means forever, \-1 means the global default (4 times if not overridden)\&. Setting this to 1 means to try activation only once before blocking autoconnect\&. Note that after a timeout, NetworkManager will try to autoconnect again\&.
T}
T{
autoconnect\-slaves
T}:T{
NMSettingConnectionAutoconnectSlaves (int32)
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether or not ports of this connection should be automatically brought up when NetworkManager activates this connection\&. This only has a real effect for controller connections\&. The properties "autoconnect", "autoconnect\-priority" and "autoconnect\-retries" are unrelated to this setting\&. The permitted values are: 0: leave port connections untouched, 1: activate all the port connections with this connection, \-1: default\&. If \-1 (default) is set, global connection\&.autoconnect\-slaves is read to determine the real value\&. If it is default as well, this fallbacks to 0\&.

Deprecated 1\&.46\&. Use "autoconnect\-ports" instead, this is just an alias\&.
T}
T{
controller
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
Interface name of the controller device or UUID of the controller connection\&.
T}
T{
dns\-over\-tls
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether DNSOverTls (dns\-over\-tls) is enabled for the connection\&. DNSOverTls is a technology which uses TLS to encrypt dns traffic\&.

The permitted values are: "yes" (2) use DNSOverTls and disabled fallback, "opportunistic" (1) use DNSOverTls but allow fallback to unencrypted resolution, "no" (0) don\*(Aqt ever use DNSOverTls\&. If unspecified "default" depends on the plugin used\&. Systemd\-resolved uses global setting\&.

This feature requires a plugin which supports DNSOverTls\&. Otherwise, the setting has no effect\&. One such plugin is dns\-systemd\-resolved\&.
T}
T{
dnssec
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether DNSSEC (dnssec) is enabled for the connection\&.

The permitted values are: "yes" (2) use DNSSEC and disable fallback, "allow\-downgrade" (1) use DNSSEC but allow fallback if the server does not support it, "no" (0) don\*(Aqt ever use DNSSEC\&. The effect of "default" (\-1) depends on the dns plugin used\&. Systemd\-resolved uses its global setting in this case\&.

This feature requires a plugin which supports DNSSEC\&. Otherwise, the setting has no effect\&. One such plugin is systemd\-resolved\&.
T}
T{
down\-on\-poweroff
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether the connection will be brought down before the system is powered off\&.  The default value is \-1 (default)\&. When the default value is specified, then the global value from NetworkManager configuration is looked up, if not set, it is considered as 0 (no)\&.
T}
T{
gateway\-ping\-timeout
T}:T{
uint32
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
If greater than zero, delay success of IP addressing until either the timeout is reached, or an IP gateway replies to a ping\&.
T}
T{
id
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
A human readable unique identifier for the connection, like "Work Wi\-Fi" or "T\-Mobile 3G"\&.
T}
T{
interface\-name
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
The name of the network interface this connection is bound to\&. If not set, then the connection can be attached to any interface of the appropriate type (subject to restrictions imposed by other settings)\&.

For software devices this specifies the name of the created device\&.

For connection types where interface names cannot easily be made persistent (e\&.g\&. mobile broadband or USB Ethernet), this property should not be used\&. Setting this property restricts the interfaces a connection can be used with, and if interface names change or are reordered the connection may be applied to the wrong interface\&.
T}
T{
ip\-ping\-addresses
T}:T{
array of string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
The property specifies a list of target IP addresses for pinging\&. When multiple targets are set, NetworkManager will start multiple ping processes in parallel\&. This property can only be set if connection\&.ip\-ping\-timeout is set\&. The ip\-ping\-timeout is used to delay the success of IP addressing until either the specified timeout (in seconds) is reached, or an target IP address replies to a ping\&. Configuring "ip\-ping\-addresses" may delay reaching the systemd\*(Aqs network\-online\&.target due to waiting for the ping operations to complete or timeout\&.
T}
T{
ip\-ping\-addresses\-require\-all
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
The property determines whether it is sufficient for any ping check to succeed among "ip\-ping\-addresses", or if all ping checks must succeed for "ip\-ping\-addresses"\&.
T}
T{
ip\-ping\-timeout
T}:T{
uint32
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
If greater than zero, delay success of IP addressing until either the specified timeout (in seconds) is reached, or a target IP address replies to a ping\&. The property specifies the timeout for the "ip\-ping\-addresses"\&. This property is incompatible with "gateway\-ping\-timeout", you cannot set these two properties at the same time\&.
T}
T{
lldp
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether LLDP is enabled for the connection\&.
T}
T{
llmnr
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether Link\-Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) is enabled for the connection\&. LLMNR is a protocol based on the Domain Name System (DNS) packet format that allows both IPv4 and IPv6 hosts to perform name resolution for hosts on the same local link\&.

The permitted values are: "yes" (2) register hostname and resolving for the connection, "no" (0) disable LLMNR for the interface, "resolve" (1) do not register hostname but allow resolving of LLMNR host names If unspecified, "default" ultimately depends on the DNS plugin (which for systemd\-resolved currently means "yes")\&.

This feature requires a plugin which supports LLMNR\&. Otherwise, the setting has no effect\&. One such plugin is dns\-systemd\-resolved\&.
T}
T{
master
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
Interface name of the controller device or UUID of the controller connection\&.

Deprecated 1\&.46\&. Use "controller" instead, this is just an alias\&.
T}
T{
mdns
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Whether mDNS is enabled for the connection\&.

The permitted values are: "yes" (2) register hostname and resolving for the connection, "no" (0) disable mDNS for the interface, "resolve" (1) do not register hostname but allow resolving of mDNS host names and "default" (\-1) to allow lookup of a global default in NetworkManager\&.conf\&. If unspecified, "default" ultimately depends on the DNS plugin\&.

This feature requires a plugin which supports mDNS\&. Otherwise, the setting has no effect\&. Currently the only supported DNS plugin is systemd\-resolved\&. For systemd\-resolved, the default is configurable via MulticastDNS= setting in resolved\&.conf\&.
T}
T{
metered
T}:T{
NMMetered (int32)
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
Whether the connection is metered\&.

When updating this property on a currently activated connection, the change takes effect immediately\&.
T}
T{
mptcp\-flags
T}:T{
uint32
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
Whether to configure MPTCP endpoints and the address flags\&. If MPTCP is enabled in NetworkManager, it will configure the addresses of the interface as MPTCP endpoints\&. Note that IPv4 loopback addresses (127\&.0\&.0\&.0/8), IPv4 link local addresses (169\&.254\&.0\&.0/16), the IPv6 loopback address (::1), IPv6 link local addresses (fe80::/10), IPv6 unique local addresses (ULA, fc00::/7) and IPv6 privacy extension addresses (rfc3041, ipv6\&.ip6\-privacy) will be excluded from being configured as endpoints\&.

If "disabled" (0x1), MPTCP handling for the interface is disabled and no endpoints are registered\&.

The "enabled" (0x2) flag means that MPTCP handling is enabled\&. This flag can also be implied from the presence of other flags\&.

Even when enabled, MPTCP handling will by default still be disabled unless "/proc/sys/net/mptcp/enabled" sysctl is on\&. NetworkManager does not change the sysctl and this is up to the administrator or distribution\&. To configure endpoints even if the sysctl is disabled, "also\-without\-sysctl" (0x4) flag can be used\&. In that case, NetworkManager doesn\*(Aqt look at the sysctl and configures endpoints regardless\&.

Even when enabled, NetworkManager will only configure MPTCP endpoints for a certain address family, if there is a unicast default route (0\&.0\&.0\&.0/0 or ::/0) in the main routing table\&. The flag "also\-without\-default\-route" (0x8) can override that\&.

When MPTCP handling is enabled then endpoints are configured with the specified address flags "signal" (0x10), "subflow" (0x20), "backup" (0x40), "fullmesh" (0x80), "laminar" (0x100)\&. See ip\-mptcp(8) manual for additional information about the flags\&.

If the flags are zero (0x0), the global connection default from NetworkManager\&.conf is honored\&. If still unspecified, the fallback is "enabled,subflow"\&. Note that this means that MPTCP is by default done depending on the "/proc/sys/net/mptcp/enabled" sysctl\&.

NetworkManager does not change the MPTCP limits nor enable MPTCP via "/proc/sys/net/mptcp/enabled"\&. That is a host configuration which the admin can change via sysctl and ip\-mptcp\&.

Strict reverse path filtering (rp_filter) breaks many MPTCP use cases, so when MPTCP handling for IPv4 addresses on the interface is enabled, NetworkManager would loosen the strict reverse path filtering (1) to the loose setting (2)\&.
T}
T{
mud\-url
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
If configured, set to a Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) URL that points to manufacturer\-recommended network policies for IoT devices\&. It is transmitted as a DHCPv4 or DHCPv6 option\&. The value must be a valid URL starting with "https://"\&.

The special value "none" is allowed to indicate that no MUD URL is used\&.

If the per\-profile value is unspecified (the default), a global connection default gets consulted\&. If still unspecified, the ultimate default is "none"\&.
T}
T{
multi\-connect
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
Specifies whether the profile can be active multiple times at a particular moment\&. The value is of type NMConnectionMultiConnect\&.
T}
T{
permissions
T}:T{
array of string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
An array of strings defining what access a given user has to this connection\&.  If this is NULL or empty, all users are allowed to access this connection; otherwise users are allowed if and only if they are in this list\&.  When this is not empty, the connection can be active only when one of the specified users is logged into an active session\&.  Each entry is of the form "[type]:[id]:[reserved]"; for example, "user:dcbw:blah"\&.

At this time only the "user" [type] is allowed\&.  Any other values are ignored and reserved for future use\&.  [id] is the username that this permission refers to, which may not contain the ":" character\&. Any [reserved] information present must be ignored and is reserved for future use\&.  All of [type], [id], and [reserved] must be valid UTF\-8\&.
T}
T{
port\-type
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
Setting name of the device type of this port\*(Aqs controller connection (eg, "bond"), or NULL if this connection is not a port\&.
T}
T{
read\-only
T}:T{
boolean
T}:T{
FALSE
T}:T{
This property is deprecated and has no meaning\&.

This property is deprecated since version 1\&.44\&.This property is deprecated and has no meaning\&.
T}
T{
secondaries
T}:T{
array of string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
List of connection UUIDs that should be activated when the base connection itself is activated\&. Currently, only VPN connections are supported\&.
T}
T{
slave\-type
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
Setting name of the device type of this port\*(Aqs controller connection (eg, "bond"), or NULL if this connection is not a port\&.

Deprecated 1\&.46\&. Use "port\-type" instead, this is just an alias\&.
T}
T{
stable\-id
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
This represents the identity of the connection used for various purposes\&. It allows configuring multiple profiles to share the identity\&. Also, the stable\-id can contain placeholders that are substituted dynamically and deterministically depending on the context\&.

The stable\-id is used for generating IPv6 stable private addresses with ipv6\&.addr\-gen\-mode=stable\-privacy\&. It is also used to seed the generated cloned MAC address for ethernet\&.cloned\-mac\-address=stable and wifi\&.cloned\-mac\-address=stable\&. It is also used to derive the DHCP client identifier with ipv4\&.dhcp\-client\-id=stable, the DHCPv6 DUID with ipv6\&.dhcp\-duid=stable\-[llt,ll,uuid] and the DHCP IAID with ipv4\&.iaid=stable and ipv6\&.iaid=stable\&.

Note that depending on the context where it is used, other parameters are also seeded into the generation algorithm\&. For example, a per\-host key is commonly also included, so that different systems end up generating different IDs\&. Or with ipv6\&.addr\-gen\-mode=stable\-privacy, also the device\*(Aqs name is included, so that different interfaces yield different addresses\&. The per\-host key is the identity of your machine and stored in /var/lib/NetworkManager/secret_key\&. See NetworkManager(8) manual about the secret\-key and the host identity\&.

The \*(Aq$\*(Aq character is treated special to perform dynamic substitutions at activation time\&. Currently, supported are "${CONNECTION}", "${DEVICE}", "${MAC}", "${NETWORK_SSID}", "${BOOT}", "${RANDOM}"\&.  These effectively create unique IDs per\-connection, per\-device, per\-SSID, per\-boot, or every time\&.  The "${CONNECTION}" uses the profile\*(Aqs connection\&.uuid, the "${DEVICE}" uses the interface name of the device and "${MAC}" the permanent MAC address of the device\&. "${NETWORK_SSID}" uses the SSID for Wi\-Fi networks and falls back to "${CONNECTION}" on other networks\&. Any unrecognized patterns following \*(Aq$\*(Aq are treated verbatim, however are reserved for future use\&. You are thus advised to avoid \*(Aq$\*(Aq or escape it as "$$"\&.  For example, set it to "${CONNECTION}\-${BOOT}\-${DEVICE}" to create a unique id for this connection that changes with every reboot and differs depending on the interface where the profile activates\&.

If the value is unset, a global connection default is consulted\&. If the value is still unset, the default is "default${CONNECTION}" go generate an ID unique per connection profile\&.
T}
T{
timestamp
T}:T{
uint64
T}:T{
0
T}:T{
The time, in seconds since the Unix Epoch, that the connection was last _successfully_ fully activated\&.

NetworkManager updates the connection timestamp periodically when the connection is active to ensure that an active connection has the latest timestamp\&. The property is only meant for reading (changes to this property will not be preserved)\&.
T}
T{
type
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
Base type of the connection\&. For hardware\-dependent connections, should contain the setting name of the hardware\-type specific setting (ie, "802\-3\-ethernet" or "802\-11\-wireless" or "bluetooth", etc), and for non\-hardware dependent connections like VPN or otherwise, should contain the setting name of that setting type (ie, "vpn" or "bridge", etc)\&.
T}
T{
uuid
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
A universally unique identifier for the connection, for example generated with libuuid\&.  It should be assigned when the connection is created, and never changed as long as the connection still applies to the same network\&.  For example, it should not be changed when the "id" property or NMSettingIP4Config changes, but might need to be re\-created when the Wi\-Fi SSID, mobile broadband network provider, or "type" property changes\&.

The UUID must be in the format "2815492f\-7e56\-435e\-b2e9\-246bd7cdc664" (ie, contains only hexadecimal characters and "\-")\&.
T}
T{
wait\-activation\-delay
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Time in milliseconds to wait for connection to be considered activated\&. The wait will start after the pre\-up dispatcher event\&.

The value 0 means no wait time\&. The default value is \-1, which currently has the same meaning as no wait time\&.
T}
T{
wait\-device\-timeout
T}:T{
int32
T}:T{
\-1
T}:T{
Timeout in milliseconds to wait for device at startup\&. During boot, devices may take a while to be detected by the driver\&. This property will cause to delay NetworkManager\-wait\-online\&.service and nm\-online to give the device a chance to appear\&. This works by waiting for the given timeout until a compatible device for the profile is available and managed\&.

The value 0 means no wait time\&. The default value is \-1, which currently has the same meaning as no wait time\&.
T}
T{
zone
T}:T{
string
T}:T{
\ \&
T}:T{
The trust level of a the connection\&.  Free form case\-insensitive string (for example "Home", "Work", "Public")\&.  NULL or unspecified zone means the connection will be placed in the default zone as defined by the firewall\&.

When updating this property on a currently activated connection, the change takes effect immediately\&.

A string sent to the DHCP server to identify the local machine which the DHCP server may use to customize the DHCP lease and options\&. When the property is a hex string (\*(Aqaa:bb:cc\*(Aq) it is interpreted as a binary client ID, in which case the first byte is assumed to be the \*(Aqtype\*(Aq field as per RFC 2132 section 9\&.14 and the remaining bytes may be an hardware address (e\&.g\&. \*(Aq01:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx\*(Aq where 1 is the Ethernet ARP type and the rest is a MAC address)\&. If the property is not a hex string it is considered as a non\-hardware\-address client ID and the \*(Aqtype\*(Aq field is set to 0\&.

The special values "mac" and "perm\-mac" are supported, which use the current or permanent MAC address of the device to generate a client identifier with type ethernet (01)\&. Currently, these options only work for ethernet type of links\&.

The special value "ipv6\-duid" uses the DUID from "ipv6\&.dhcp\-duid" property as an RFC4361\-compliant client identifier\&. As IAID it uses "ipv4\&.dhcp\-iaid" and falls back to "ipv6\&.dhcp\-iaid" if unset\&.

The special value "duid" generates a RFC4361\-compliant client identifier based on "ipv4\&.dhcp\-iaid" and uses a DUID generated by hashing /etc/machine\-id\&.

The special value "stable" is supported to generate a type 0 client identifier based on the stable\-id (see connection\&.stable\-id) and a per\-host key\&. If you set the stable\-id, you may want to include the "${DEVICE}" or "${MAC}" specifier to get a per\-device key\&.

The special value "none" prevents any client identifier from being sent\&. Note that this is normally not recommended\&.

If unset, a globally configured default from NetworkManager\&.conf is used\&. If still unset, the default depends on the DHCP plugin\&. The internal dhcp client will default to "mac" and the dhclient plugin will try to use one from its config file if present, or won\*(Aqt sent any client\-id otherwise\&.

When set to "mac" (or "perm\-mac"), the last 4 bytes of the current (or permanent) MAC address are used as IAID\&. When set to "ifname", the IAID is computed by hashing the interface name\&. The special value "stable" can be used to generate an IAID based on the stable\-id (see connection\&.stable\-id), a per\-host key and the interface name\&.

For DHCPv4, the IAID is only used with "ipv4\&.dhcp\-client\-id" values "duid" and "ipv6\-duid" to generate the client\-id\&.

For DHCPv6, note that at the moment this property is only supported by the "internal" DHCPv6 plugin\&. The "dhclient" DHCPv6 plugin always derives the IAID from the MAC address\&.

See the resolv\&.conf(5) man page for a detailed description of these options\&.

In addition, NetworkManager supports the special options "_no\-add\-edns0" and "_no\-add\-trust\-ad"\&. They are not added to resolv\&.conf, and can be used to prevent the automatic addition of options "edns0" and "trust\-ad" when using caching DNS plugins (see below)\&.

The "trust\-ad" setting is only honored if the profile contributes name servers to resolv\&.conf, and if all contributing profiles have "trust\-ad" enabled\&.

When using a caching DNS plugin (dnsmasq or systemd\-resolved in NetworkManager\&.conf) then "edns0" and "trust\-ad" are automatically added, unless "_no\-add\-edns0" and "_no\-add\-trust\-ad" are present\&.

DNS servers priority\&.

The relative priority for DNS servers specified by this setting\&.  A lower numerical value is better (higher priority)\&.

Negative values have the special effect of excluding other configurations with a greater numerical priority value; so in presence of at least one negative priority, only DNS servers from connections with the lowest priority value will be used\&. To avoid all DNS leaks, set the priority of the profile that should be used to the most negative value of all active connections profiles\&.

Zero selects a globally configured default value\&. If the latter is missing or zero too, it defaults to 50 for VPNs (including WireGuard) and 100 for other connections\&.

Note that the priority is to order DNS settings for multiple active connections\&.  It does not disambiguate multiple DNS servers within the same connection profile\&.

When multiple devices have configurations with the same priority, VPNs will be considered first, then devices with the best (lowest metric) default route and then all other devices\&.

When using dns=default, servers with higher priority will be on top of resolv\&.conf\&. To prioritize a given server over another one within the same connection, just specify them in the desired order\&. Note that commonly the resolver tries name servers in /etc/resolv\&.conf in the order listed, proceeding with the next server in the list on failure\&. See for example the "rotate" option of the dns\-options setting\&. If there are any negative DNS priorities, then only name servers from the devices with that lowest priority will be considered\&.

When using a DNS resolver that supports Conditional Forwarding or Split DNS (with dns=dnsmasq or dns=systemd\-resolved settings), each connection is used to query domains in its search list\&. The search domains determine which name servers to ask, and the DNS priority is used to prioritize name servers based on the domain\&.  Queries for domains not present in any search list are routed through connections having the \*(Aq~\&.\*(Aq special wildcard domain, which is added automatically to connections with the default route (or can be added manually)\&.  When multiple connections specify the same domain, the one with the best priority (lowest numerical value) wins\&.  If a sub domain is configured on another interface it will be accepted regardless the priority, unless parent domain on the other interface has a negative priority, which causes the sub domain to be shadowed\&. With Split DNS one can avoid undesired DNS leaks by properly configuring DNS priorities and the search domains, so that only name servers of the desired interface are configured\&.

When using a DNS plugin that supports Conditional Forwarding or Split DNS, then the search domains specify which name servers to query\&. This makes the behavior different from running with plain /etc/resolv\&.conf\&. For more information see also the dns\-priority setting\&.

When set on a profile that also enabled DHCP, the DNS search list received automatically (option 119 for DHCPv4 and option 24 for DHCPv6) gets merged with the manual list\&.

NMSettingIP4Config and NMSettingIP6Config both support "disabled", "auto", "manual", and "link\-local"\&. See the subclass\-specific documentation for other values\&.

Configure the method for creating the IPv6 interface identifier of addresses for RFC4862 IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration and IPv6 Link Local\&.

The permitted values are: 0 (eui64), 1 (stable\-privacy)\&. 2 (default\-or\-eui64) or 3 (default)\&.

If the property is set to "eui64", the addresses will be generated using the interface token derived from the hardware address\&. This makes the host part of the address constant, making it possible to track the host\*(Aqs presence when it changes networks\&. The address changes when the interface hardware is replaced\&. If a duplicate address is detected, there is no fallback to generate another address\&. When configured, the "ipv6\&.token" is used instead of the MAC address to generate addresses for stateless autoconfiguration\&.

If the property is set to "stable\-privacy", the interface identifier is generated as specified by RFC7217\&. This works by hashing a host specific key (see NetworkManager(8) manual), the interface name, the connection\*(Aqs "connection\&.stable\-id" property and the address prefix\&.  This improves privacy by making it harder to use the address to track the host\*(Aqs presence as every prefix and network has a different identifier\&. Also, the address is stable when the network interface hardware is replaced\&.

The special values "default" and "default\-or\-eui64" will fallback to the global connection default as documented in the NetworkManager\&.conf(5) manual\&. If the global default is not specified, the fallback value is "stable\-privacy" or "eui64", respectively\&.

For libnm, the property defaults to "default" since 1\&.40\&.  Previously it used to default to "stable\-privacy"\&.  On D\-Bus, the absence of an addr\-gen\-mode setting equals "default"\&. For keyfile plugin, the absence of the setting on disk means "default\-or\-eui64" so that the property doesn\*(Aqt change on upgrade from older versions\&.

Note that this setting is distinct from the Privacy Extensions as configured by "ip6\-privacy" property and it does not affect the temporary addresses configured with this option\&.

The special value "lease" will retrieve the DUID previously used from the lease file belonging to the connection\&. If no DUID is found and "dhclient" is the configured dhcp client, the DUID is searched in the system\-wide dhclient lease file\&. If still no DUID is found, or another dhcp client is used, a global and permanent DUID\-UUID (RFC 6355) will be generated based on the machine\-id\&.

The special values "llt" and "ll" will generate a DUID of type LLT or LL (see RFC 3315) based on the current MAC address of the device\&. In order to try providing a stable DUID\-LLT, the time field will contain a constant timestamp that is used globally (for all profiles) and persisted to disk\&.

The special values "stable\-llt", "stable\-ll" and "stable\-uuid" will generate a DUID of the corresponding type, derived from the connection\*(Aqs stable\-id and a per\-host unique key\&.

So, the link\-layer address of "stable\-ll" and "stable\-llt" will be a generated address derived from the stable id\&. The DUID\-LLT time value in the "stable\-llt" option will be picked among a static timespan of three years (the upper bound of the interval is the same constant timestamp used in "llt")\&.

Alternatively it can be set to the special values "mac", "perm\-mac", "ifname" or "stable"\&. When set to "mac" (or "perm\-mac"), the last 4 bytes of the current (or permanent) MAC address are used as IAID\&. When set to "ifname", the IAID is computed by hashing the interface name\&. The special value "stable" can be used to generate an IAID based on the stable\-id (see connection\&.stable\-id), a per\-host key and the interface name\&.

See the resolv\&.conf(5) man page for a detailed description of these options\&.

In addition, NetworkManager supports the special options "_no\-add\-edns0" and "_no\-add\-trust\-ad"\&. They are not added to resolv\&.conf, and can be used to prevent the automatic addition of options "edns0" and "trust\-ad" when using caching DNS plugins (see below)\&.

The "trust\-ad" setting is only honored if the profile contributes name servers to resolv\&.conf, and if all contributing profiles have "trust\-ad" enabled\&.

When using a caching DNS plugin (dnsmasq or systemd\-resolved in NetworkManager\&.conf) then "edns0" and "trust\-ad" are automatically added, unless "_no\-add\-edns0" and "_no\-add\-trust\-ad" are present\&.

DNS servers priority\&.

The relative priority for DNS servers specified by this setting\&.  A lower numerical value is better (higher priority)\&.

Negative values have the special effect of excluding other configurations with a greater numerical priority value; so in presence of at least one negative priority, only DNS servers from connections with the lowest priority value will be used\&. To avoid all DNS leaks, set the priority of the profile that should be used to the most negative value of all active connections profiles\&.

Zero selects a globally configured default value\&. If the latter is missing or zero too, it defaults to 50 for VPNs (including WireGuard) and 100 for other connections\&.

Note that the priority is to order DNS settings for multiple active connections\&.  It does not disambiguate multiple DNS servers within the same connection profile\&.

When multiple devices have configurations with the same priority, VPNs will be considered first, then devices with the best (lowest metric) default route and then all other devices\&.

When using dns=default, servers with higher priority will be on top of resolv\&.conf\&. To prioritize a given server over another one within the same connection, just specify them in the desired order\&. Note that commonly the resolver tries name servers in /etc/resolv\&.conf in the order listed, proceeding with the next server in the list on failure\&. See for example the "rotate" option of the dns\-options setting\&. If there are any negative DNS priorities, then only name servers from the devices with that lowest priority will be considered\&.

When using a DNS resolver that supports Conditional Forwarding or Split DNS (with dns=dnsmasq or dns=systemd\-resolved settings), each connection is used to query domains in its search list\&. The search domains determine which name servers to ask, and the DNS priority is used to prioritize name servers based on the domain\&.  Queries for domains not present in any search list are routed through connections having the \*(Aq~\&.\*(Aq special wildcard domain, which is added automatically to connections with the default route (or can be added manually)\&.  When multiple connections specify the same domain, the one with the best priority (lowest numerical value) wins\&.  If a sub domain is configured on another interface it will be accepted regardless the priority, unless parent domain on the other interface has a negative priority, which causes the sub domain to be shadowed\&. With Split DNS one can avoid undesired DNS leaks by properly configuring DNS priorities and the search domains, so that only name servers of the desired interface are configured\&.

When using a DNS plugin that supports Conditional Forwarding or Split DNS, then the search domains specify which name servers to query\&. This makes the behavior different from running with plain /etc/resolv\&.conf\&. For more information see also the dns\-priority setting\&.

When set on a profile that also enabled DHCP, the DNS search list received automatically (option 119 for DHCPv4 and option 24 for DHCPv6) gets merged with the manual list\&.

An element can be prefixed with a pipe symbol (|) or an ampersand (&)\&. The former means that the element is optional and the latter means that it is mandatory\&. If there are any optional elements, than the match evaluates to true if at least one of the optional element matches (logical OR)\&. If there are any mandatory elements, then they all must match (logical AND)\&. By default, an element is optional\&. This means that an element "foo" behaves the same as "|foo"\&. An element can also be inverted with exclamation mark (!) between the pipe symbol (or the ampersand) and before the pattern\&. Note that "!foo" is a shortcut for the mandatory match "&!foo"\&. Finally, a backslash can be used at the beginning of the element (after the optional special characters) to escape the start of the pattern\&. For example, "&\e\e!a" is an mandatory match for literally "!a"\&.

For PCI devices the path has the form "pci\-$domain:$bus:$device\&.$function", where each variable is an hexadecimal value; for example "pci\-0000:0a:00\&.0"\&.

The path of a device can be obtained with "udevadm info /sys/class/net/$dev | grep ID_PATH=" or by looking at the "path" property exported by NetworkManager ("nmcli \-f general\&.path device show $dev")\&.
