NetworkManager stores new network profiles in keyfile format in the
|
|
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ directory.
|
|
|
|
Previously, NetworkManager stored network profiles in ifcfg format
|
|
in this directory (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/). However, the ifcfg
|
|
format is deprecated. By default, NetworkManager no longer creates
|
|
new profiles in this format.
|
|
|
|
Connection profiles in keyfile format have many benefits. For example,
|
|
this format is INI file-based and can easily be parsed and generated.
|
|
|
|
Each section in NetworkManager keyfiles corresponds to a NetworkManager
|
|
setting name as described in the nm-settings(5) and nm-settings-keyfile(5)
|
|
man pages. Each key-value-pair in a section is one of the properties
|
|
listed in the settings specification of the man page.
|
|
|
|
If you still use network profiles in ifcfg format, consider migrating
|
|
them to keyfile format. To migrate all profiles at once, enter:
|
|
|
|
# nmcli connection migrate
|
|
|
|
This command migrates all profiles from ifcfg format to keyfile
|
|
format and stores them in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, to migrate only a specific profile, enter:
|
|
|
|
# nmcli connection migrate <profile_name|UUID|D-Bus_path>
|
|
|
