Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
- object LookupService(string pattern)
-
- Lookup a service matching the specific pattern.
-
- Examples are interface names like "eth0", "wlan0"
- etc. or service names like "hotspot" etc.
-
- In case of multiple services match the the pattern
- an error is returned.

-
- object ConnectService(dict network)
-
- Connect to a network specified by the given
- properties.
-
- For connecting to a hidden WiFi network for example
- it is required that Type = "wifi" and the SSID
- properties are provided.
-
- When successful this method will return object
- path of the service object.
-
- This method can also be used to connect to an
- already existing service. It works exactly the
- same as executing the Connect method from the
- service interface.
-
- This method call will only return in case of an
- error or when the service is fully connected. So
- setting a longer D-Bus timeout might be a really
- good idea.
-
- Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
-
object ConnectProvider(dict provider)

setting a longer D-Bus timeout might be a really
good idea.

+ call is disallowed.

- object RequestSession(string bearer)
+ object CreateSession(dict settings, object notifier) [experimental]
- Request a networking session.
+ Create a new session for the application. Every
+ application can create multiple session with
+ different settings. The settings are described
+ as part of the session interface.
- If the bearer is an empty string the best available
- service will be picked.
+ The notifier allows asynchronous notification about
+ session specific changes. These changes can be
+ for online/offline state or IP address changes or
+ similar things the application is required to
+ handle.
- When successful this method will return the object
- path of the corresponding service.
+ Every application should at least create one session
+ to inform about its requirements and it purpose.
+
+ void DestroySession(object session) [experimental]
+
+ Remove the previously created session.
+
+ If an application exits unexpectatly the session
+ will be automatically destroyed.
+
+ object path, dict, fd RequestPrivateNetwork(dict options)
+ [experimental]
+
+ Request a new Private Network, which includes the
+ creation of a tun/tap interface, and IP
+ configuration, NAT and IP forwarding on that
+ interface.
+ An object path, a dictionnary and a file descriptor
+ with IP settings are returned.

-Signals PropertyChanged(string name, variant value)
+Signals TechnologyAdded(object path, dict properties)
- This signal indicates a changed value of the given
- property.
+ Signal that is sent when a new technology is added.
- StateChanged(string state)
+ It contains the object path of the technology and
+ also its properties.
- This signal is similar to the PropertyChanged signal
- for the State property.
+ TechnologyRemoved(object path)
- It exists for application state only care about the
- current state and so can avoid to be woken up when
- other details changes.

+ signal and only emitted for reference.
- The global connection state of a system. Possible
- values are "online" if at least one connection exists
- and "offline" if no device is connected.
+ ServicesAdded(array{object, dict})
- In certain situations the state might change to
- the value "connected". This can only be seen if
- previously no connection was present.
+ List of service that have been added. The array
+ is a list of services that is sorted with existing
+ services containing an empty dictionary and new
+ services containing the properties.
- array{string} AvailableTechnologies [readonly]
+ This signal will only inform about added services
+ and in case that services get added and removed at
+ the same time, a ServicesRemoved signal will be
+ sent first.
- The list of available technologies. The strings
- are the same as the ones from the service types.
+ ServicesRemoved(array{object})
- array{string} EnabledTechnologies [readonly]
+ Signals a list of services that are no longer valid.
- The list of enabled technologies. The strings
- are the same as the ones from the service types.
+ The object paths are no longer accessible after
+ this signal and only emitted for reference.

+ PropertyChanged(string name, variant value)
- The list of connected technologies. The strings
- are the same as the ones from the service type.
+ This signal indicates a changed value of the given
+ property.
- string DefaultTechnology [readonly]
+Properties string State [readonly]
+
+ The global connection state of a system. Possible
+ values are "online" if at least one connection exists
+ and "offline" if no device is connected.
- The current connected technology which holds the
- default route.
+ In certain situations the state might change to

boolean OfflineMode [readwrite]
the limited usage of WiFi or Bluetooth devices might
be allowed in some situations.
- boolean Tethering [readwrite]
-
- This option allows to enable or disable the support
- for tethering. When tethering is enabled then the
- default service is bridged to all client where
- connection sharing is supported.
-
- object ActiveProfile [readwrite]

-
- List of profile object paths.

- List of technology object paths.
-
- array{object} Services [readonly]
-
- List of service object paths. The list is sorted
- internally to have the service with the default
- route always first and then the favorite services
- followed by scan results.
+ boolean SessionMode [readwrite] [experminental]
- This list represents the available services for the
- current selected profile. If the profile gets changed
- then this list will be updated.
+ This disables the auto connect feature. It should be
+ enabled when the Session API is used. When SessionMode
+ is enabled, 'ConnectService' and 'ConnectProvider'
+ method calls are disallowed.
- The same list is available via the profile object
- itself. It is just provided here for convenience of
- applications only dealing with the current active
- profile.
