       connmanctl - Connman CLI

SYNOPSIS

       connmanctl  [  enable <technology> | offlinemode] [ disable <technology> | offlinemode] [ technologies] [
       state] [ services [--properties <service>]] [ scan <technology>] [ connect <service>] [ config  <service>
       --<option> ARGS...] [ help | --help]

DESCRIPTION

       Connmanctl is a Connman command line interface which can be run in two modes: a plain synchronous command
       input,  and  an  asynchronous interactive shell.  To run a specific command the user may enter connmanctl
       <command> [options] [args], or enter connmanctl; in this case, the program will drop into the interactive
       shell.

       Connmantl can handle most simple network connections. It is able to enable/ disable any  technology  that
       exists  on  the  system,  display  a list of services available, connect to/disconnect from any unsecured
       networks, show properties of the system, the technologies, and any individual service, and configure  all
       of  the  properties.  It is also able to monitor changes in the properties of the services, technologies,
       and the system.

       In the interactive shell, all of the same commands can be used. It provides quicker usage when needing to
       use connmanctl more extensively.

COMMANDS AND OPTIONS

       help | --help | (no arguments)
              Shows the abbreviated help menu in the terminal.

       enable <technology>
              Enables the given technology type  (e.g.  ethernet,  wifi,  3g,  etc.)   Turns  power  on  to  the
              technology, but doesn't connect unless there is a service with autoconnect set to True.

       disable <technology>
              Disables  the  given  technology  type. Turns power off to the technology and disconnects if it is
              already connected.

       enable offlinemode
              Enables offline mode. Disconnects and powers  down  all  technologies  system-wide,  however  each
              technology can be powered back on individually.

       disable offlinemode
              Disables offline mode. Technologies are powered back on according to their individual policies.

       technologies
              Shows  a  list  of  all  technology  types  existing  on  the system and their properties. See the
              properties section of the Technology API for explanations of each property.

       state  Shows the system properties. Includes ths online state of the system, offline  mode,  and  session
              mode.

       scan <technology>
              Scans for new services on the given technology.

       services
              Shows  a  list of all available service names. This includes the names of wifi networks, the wired
              ethernet connection, names of bluetooth devices, etc. These are the names used  when  a  <service>
              command   is   called   for.   The   service   name  (e.g.  Joes-wifi),  the  service  path  (e.g.
              wifi_6834534139723_managed_none),      or      the       full       service       path       (e.g.
              /net/connman/Service/wifi_5467631...) are all accepted as valid input. An asterisk in front of the
              service  indicates  that  the  service is favorited, and a "C" indicates a service that is already
              connected.

       services --properties <service>
              Shows a list of all properties for that service. See the properties section of the Service API for
              explanations of each property.

       connect <service>
              Connects to the given service if it is unsecured.

       disconnect <service>
              Disconnects from the given service.

       config <service> --<option>
              Configures a writable property of the given service to the value(s) entered after --<option>.

       monitor [--<option>]
              Listens for and displays DBus signals sent by Connman. The option indicates which signals you want
              to subscribe to. If no option is entered, it displays all signals from all interfaces.

   Config Options:
       --autoconnect=y/n
              Sets the autoconnect property of the service.

       --ipv4 Configures the IPv4 settings for the service. Enter the settings in the order "Method", "Address",
              "Netmask", then "Gateway" after the argument. See the properties section of the  Service  API  for
              more  information  on  these settings and the values accepted for them. It also displays a list of
              changes to both the IPv4 settings, and incidental changes to other values related to it.

       --ipv6 Configures the IPv6 settings for the service. Enter the settings in the order "Method", "Address",
              "PrefixLength", "Gateway", then "Privacy". See the properties section of the Service API for  more
              information  on  these  settings  and  the  values  accepted for them.  It also displays a list of
              entered changes to the IPv6 settings, and incidental changes to other values related to it.

       --nameservers
              Adds to the list of manually configured domain name servers.  Enter the  name  servers  after  the
              argument separated by spaces.

       --timeservers
              Adds  to  the  list of manually configured time servers. Enter the time servers after the argument
              separated by spaces.

       --domains
              Adds to the list of manually configured search domains. Enter  the  domains  after  the  argument,
              separated by spaces.

       --proxy

              the Method is set to "direct", no other arguments are taken. If the Method is set to  "auto",  the
              URL  is  optional.  To set the Servers and Excludes manually, enter "manual" followed by "servers"
              with a list of servers separated by spaces. Then, optionally, the word "excludes"  followed  by  a
              list  of  excludes separated by spaces. e.g. "./connmanctl config joes-wifi --proxy manual servers
              serv1 serv2 serv3 excludes excl1 excl2"

   Monitor Options:
       --services
              Listens for and displays the PropertyChanged signal from the Service interface.  Also displays the
              service name (e.g. Joes-wifi) that the property is part of.  More information, including a list of
              possible properties can be found in the Service API.

       --tech Listens  for  and  displays  the  PropertyChanged  signal  from  the  Technology  interface.  More
