I imagine that setting up such connections might enable nmtui to see the connections, but I hesitate to try this without the guidance of someone on this site who knows about nmcli and nmtui. I found instructions for setting up wifi and ethernet connections using nmcli at this link and at this other link. So can changing the wlp3so state to something other than unmanaged help resolve this problem? Is this done with config files? Or with a tool like nmcli?Īs further research, nmcli radio wifi results in the terminal printing enabled and nmcli device wifi list results in just another command prompt, indicating that wifi is enabled, but no devices are available. Similarly, when I type nmcli d in the CentOS 7 development server, the terminal repies with: DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION Does this mean that there is some relationship between the ifcfg- files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ and nmtui? If so, how can we leverage this to get nmtui to see the wlp3so connection?ĭoes it have to do with the STATE variable in the output of nmcli d? For example, this tutorial shows devices that are in the disconnected STATE showing up in nmtui, while a device in the unmanaged STATE does not. There are three ifcfg- files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ named ifcfg-eno, ifcfg-eno_backup, and ifcfg-lo (plus lots of other files with other types of names). When I choose to either Edit a connection or Activate a connection from the first screen in nmtui, each of the resulting dialog boxes gives me the option to work with (add, edit, activate, delete) a wired connection that is defined in a file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eno_backup. Here is a summary of what I have tried in each approach: The possible approaches I have identified include: 1.) Possibly adding config files to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ģ,) Updating certain network management tools I am hoping the following research will enable someone to see how they can help me with this: The rest of this posting includes many edits based on ongoing research. Why not? What specific steps do I have to take to make the wlp3so connection available to nmtui?
