<p>If available on the system, Cockpit uses
<a class="ulink" href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager" target="_top">NetworkManager</a>
and the DBus APIs it provides to interact with the system's network configuration.</p>
<p>For non root users, NetworkManager controls access to its APIs via
<a class="link" href="privileges.html" title="Privileges and Permissions">Policy Kit</a> and a user logged into Cockpit will have
the same permissions as they do from the command line.</p>
<p>To perform similar tasks from the command line, use the
<a class="ulink" href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Networking/CLI" target="_top">nmcli</a> command:</p>
<pre class="programlisting">
$ <span class="command"><strong>nmcli general status</strong></span>
STATE CONNECTIVITY WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN
connected full enabled enabled enabled enabled
</pre>
<p>Devices marked as "not managed" with the <code class="code">NM_CONTROLLED=no</code> setting
will not be displayed in the interface.</p>
