-Methods dict GetProperties()
+Methods dict GetProperties() [deprecated]
Returns properties for the service object. See
the properties section for available properties.
+ Usage of this method is highly discouraged. Use
+ the Manager.GetServices() method instead.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void SetProperty(string name, variant value)
+
+ Changes the value of the specified property. Only
+ properties that are listed as read-write are
+ changeable. On success a PropertyChanged signal
+ will be emitted.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+ [service].Error.InvalidProperty
+
+ void ClearProperty(string name)
+
+ Clears the value of the specified property.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+ [service].Error.InvalidProperty
+
+ void Connect()
+
+ Connect this service. It will attempt to connect
+ WiFi, WiMAX or Bluetooth services.
+
+ For Ethernet devices this method can only be used
+ if it has previously been disconnected. Otherwise
+ the plugging of a cable will trigger connecting
+ automatically. If no cable is plugged in this method
+ will fail.
+
+ 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
+
+ void Disconnect()
+
+ Disconnect this service. If the service is not
+ connected an error message will be generated.
+
+ On Ethernet devices this will disconnect the IP
+ details from the service. It will not magically
+ unplug the cable. When no cable is plugged in this
+ method will fail.
+
+ This method can also be used to abort a previous
+ connectiong attempt via the Connect method.
+
Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+ void Remove()
+
+ A successfully connected service with Favorite=true
+ can be removed this way. If it is connected, it will
+ be automatically disconnected first.
+
+ If the service requires a passphrase it will be
+ cleared and forgotten when removing.
+
+ This is similar to setting the Favorite property
+ to false, but that is currently not supported.
+
+ In the case a connection attempt failed and the
+ service is in the State=failure, this method can
+ also be used to reset the service.
+
+ Calling this method on Ethernet devices will cause
+ an error message. It is not possible to remove these
+ kind of devices.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void MoveBefore(object service)
+
+ If a service has been used before, this allows a
+ reorder of the favorite services.
+
+ The target service object must be part of this
+ profile. Moving between profiles is not supported.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void MoveAfter(object service)
+
+ If a service has been used before, this allows a
+ reorder of the favorite services.
+
+ The target service object must be part of this
+ profile. Moving between profiles is not supported.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void ResetCounters() [experimental]
+
+ Reset the counter statistics.
+
+ Possible Errors: None
+

+
+ boolean Favorite [readonly]
+
+ Will be true if a cable is plugged in or the user
+ selected and successfully connected to this service.
+
+ This value is automatically changed and to revert
+ it back to false the Remove() method needs to be
+ used.
+
+ boolean Immutable [readonly]
+
+ This value will be set to true if the service is
+ configured externally via a configuration file.
+
+ The only valid operation are Connect() and of
+ course Disconnect(). The Remove() method will
+ result in an error.
+
+ boolean AutoConnect [readwrite]
+
+ If set to true, this service will auto-connect
+ when no other connection is available.
+
+ The service won't auto-connect while roaming.
+
+ For favorite services it is possible to change
+ this value to prevent or permit automatic
+ connection attempts.
+
+ boolean Roaming [readonly]

+ In the case of Cellular services this normally
+ indicates connections to a foreign provider when
+ traveling abroad.
+
+ array{string} Nameservers [readonly]
+
+ The list of currently active nameservers for this

+ current nameservers. The first one has the highest
+ priority and is used by default.
+
+ When using DHCP this array represents the nameservers
+ provided by the network. In case of manual settings,
+ the ones from Nameservers.Configuration are used.
+
+ array{string} Nameservers.Configuration [readwrite]
+
+ The list of manually configured domain name
+ servers. Some cellular networks don't provide
+ correct name servers and this allows for an
+ override.
+
+ This array is sorted by priority and the first
+ entry in the list represents the nameserver with
+ the highest priority.
+
+ When using manual configuration and no global
+ nameservers are configured, then it is useful
+ to configure this setting.
+
+ Changes to the domain name servers can be done
+ at any time. It will not cause a disconnect of
+ the service. However there might be small window
+ where name resolution might fail.
+
+ array{string} Timeservers [readonly]
+

+
+ The first entry in the list represents the
+ timeserver with the highest priority.
+
+ When using manual configuration this setting
+ is useful to override all the other timeserver
+ settings. This is service specific, hence only
+ the values for the default service are used.
+
+ Changes to this property will result in restart
+ of NTP query.
