        This command shows configured polkit permissions for various NetworkManager
        operations. These permissions or actions (using polkit language) are configured
        by a system administrator and are not meant to be changed by users. The usual
        place for the polkit configuration is /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.policy.
        <emphasis>pkaction</emphasis> command can display description for polkit actions.

      <para>
        The first command makes NetworkManager log in DEBUG level, and only for CORE, ETHER and
        IP domains. The second command restores the default logging state. Please refer to the
        <link linkend='NetworkManager.conf'><citerefentry><refentrytitle>NetworkManager.conf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry></link> manual page
        for available logging levels and domains.

    <example><title>Activating a VPN connection profile requiring interactive password input</title>
<screen><prompt>$ </prompt><userinput>nmcli --ask con up my-vpn-con</userinput></screen>
      <para>
        This command activates a VPN connection profile enabling nmcli to interact with the user
        ('--ask'): this will allow nmcli to prompt for the VPN password on the command line when
        the <emphasis>password-flags</emphasis> are set to '0x02' ('always ask', see
        <link linkend='nm-settings'><citerefentry><refentrytitle>nm-settings</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry></link>
        ).
        This is particularly useful for OTP based VPNs, as the user needs to be prompted for the
        password each time the connection is activated.

<prompt>$ </prompt><userinput>nmcli con add type ethernet ifname eth2 master mybond0</userinput></screen>
      <para>
        This example demonstrates adding a bond master connection and two slaves. The
        first command adds a master bond connection, naming the bonding interface
        <emphasis>mybond0</emphasis> and using <emphasis>active-backup</emphasis> mode.
        The next two commands add slaves connections, both enslaved to <emphasis>mybond0</emphasis>.
        The first slave will be bound to <emphasis>eth1</emphasis> interface, the second to
        <emphasis>eth2</emphasis>.
      </para>
    </example>

    <example><title>Adding a team master and two slave connection profiles</title>

<prompt>$ </prompt><userinput>nmcli con add type ethernet con-name Team1-slave1 ifname em1 master Team1</userinput>
<prompt>$ </prompt><userinput>nmcli con add type ethernet con-name Team1-slave2 ifname em2 master Team1</userinput></screen>
      <para>
        This example demonstrates adding a team master connection profile and two slaves. It is
        very similar to the bonding example. The first command adds a master team profile, naming
        the team interface and the profile <emphasis>Team1</emphasis>. The team configuration
        for the master is read from <emphasis>team1-master-json.conf</emphasis> file. Later, you can
        change the configuration with <emphasis>modify</emphasis> command
        (<emphasis role="bold">nmcli con modify Team1 team.config team1-master-another-json.conf</emphasis>).
        The last two commands add slaves profiles, both enslaved to <emphasis>Team1</emphasis>.
        The first slave will be bound to <emphasis>em1</emphasis> interface, the second to
        <emphasis>em2</emphasis>. The slaves don't specify <emphasis>config</emphasis> and thus
        <emphasis>teamd</emphasis> will use its default configuration. You will activate the whole setup
        by activating both slaves:
<screen>  <prompt>$ </prompt><userinput>nmcli con up Team1-slave1</userinput>
  <prompt>$ </prompt><userinput>nmcli con up Team1-slave2</userinput></screen>
        By default, the created profiles are marked for auto-activation. But if another
        connection has been activated on the device, the new profile won't activate
        automatically and you need to activate it manually.
      </para>
    </example>

    <example><title>Adding a bridge and two slave profiles</title>

        This example demonstrates adding a bridge master connection and two slaves. The
        first command adds a master bridge connection, naming the bridge interface and
        the profile as <emphasis>TowerBridge</emphasis>.
        The next two commands add slaves profiles, both will be enslaved to
        <emphasis>TowerBridge</emphasis>.
        The first slave will be tied to <emphasis>ens3</emphasis> interface, the second to
        <emphasis>ens4</emphasis>.
        The last command will disable 802.1D STP for the TowerBridge profile.

      <para>
        The first command adds an Ethernet connection profile named <emphasis>my-con-em1</emphasis>
        that is bound to interface name <emphasis>em1</emphasis>. The profile is configured
        with static IP addresses. Three addresses are added, two IPv4 addresses and one IPv6.
        The first IP 192.168.100.100 has a prefix of 24 (netmask equivalent of 255.255.255.0).
        Gateway entry will become the default route if this profile is activated on em1 interface
        (and there is no connection with higher priority). The next two addresses do not
        specify a prefix, so a default prefix will be used, i.e. 32 for IPv4 and 128 for IPv6.
        The second, third and fourth commands modify DNS parameters of the new connection profile.
        The last <emphasis>con show</emphasis> command displays the profile so that all
        parameters can be reviewed.
