<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
NetworkManager is based on a concept of connections. These connections are
then applied to a device to make an active network connection. Users can create
as many connections as they see fit. The connections are handled by NetworkManager
via <emphasis>settings service</emphasis> and are exported on D-Bus
(<emphasis>/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/<num></emphasis> objects).
The conceptual objects can be described as follows:
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>Connection</term>
<listitem>
<para>
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 <emphasis>Settings</emphasis>
objects.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>Setting</term>
<listitem>
<para>
A group of related key/value pairs describing a specific piece of a
<emphasis>Connection</emphasis>. Settings keys and allowed values are
described in the tables below. Developers can find the settings
objects in the libnm-util sources. Look for the <function>class_init</function>
functions near the bottoms of each setting source file.

<entry align="left">[]</entry>
<entry>The allowed EAP method to be used when authenticating to the network with 802.1x. Valid methods are: 'leap', 'md5', 'tls', 'peap', 'ttls', and 'fast'. Each method requires different configuration using the properties of this setting; refer to wpa_supplicant documentation for the allowed combinations.</entry>

<entry>Contains the CA certificate if used by the EAP method specified in the 'eap' property. Certificate data is specified using a 'scheme'; two are currently supported: blob and path. When using the blob scheme (which is backwards compatible with NM 0.7.x) this property should be set to the certificate's DER encoded data. When using the path scheme, this property should be set to the full UTF-8 encoded path of the certificate, prefixed with the string 'file://' and ending with a terminating NULL byte. This property can be unset even if the EAP method supports CA certificates, but this allows man-in-the-middle attacks and is NOT recommended.</entry>

<entry>A list of BSSIDs (each BSSID formatted as a MAC address like 00:11:22:33:44:55') that have been detected as part of the WiFI network. NetworkManager internally tracks previously seen BSSIDs. The property is only meant for reading and reflects the BBSID list of NetworkManager. The changes you make to this property will not be preserved.</entry>

<entry>If the wireless connection has any security restrictions, like 802.1x, WEP, or WPA, set this property to '802-11-wireless-security' and ensure the connection contains a valid 802-11-wireless-security setting.</entry>

<entry align="left">hidden</entry>
<entry align="left">boolean</entry>
<entry align="left">FALSE</entry>
<entry>If TRUE, indicates this network is a non-broadcasting network that hides its SSID. In this case various workarounds may take place, such as probe-scanning the SSID for more reliable network discovery. However, these workarounds expose inherent insecurities with hidden SSID networks, and thus hidden SSID networks should be used with caution.</entry>

<para>
Each secret property in a setting has an associated <emphasis>flags</emphasis> property
that describes how to handle that secret. The <emphasis>flags</emphasis> property is a bitfield
that contains zero or more of the following values logically OR-ed together.
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>0x0 (none) - the system is responsible for providing and storing this secret.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>0x1 (agent-owned) - a user-session secret agent is responsible for providing and storing
this secret; when it is required, agents will be asked to provide it.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>0x2 (not-saved) - this secret should not be saved but should be requested from the user
each time it is required. This flag should be used for One-Time-Pad secrets, PIN codes from hardware tokens,
or if the user simply does not want to save the secret.</para>

<para>0x4 (not-required) - in some situations it cannot be automatically determined that a secret
is required or not. This flag hints that the secret is not required and should not be requested from the user.</para>
