| Methods dict GetProperties() |
| |
| Return the global system properties specified |
| in the Properties section. |
| |
| 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 |
| |
| string GetState() |
| |
| Return the connection state of a system. The |
| same value is return via the State property. |
| |
| object CreateProfile(string name) |
| |
| Create and add new profile with the specified |
| identifier name. The name should either be in the |
| form ``name'' or ``~user/name'' where where ``user'' |
| is the login name of a user suitable for finding |
| their home directory. Both strings must contain |
| only alpha-numeric ASCII characters. |
| |
| Profiles created without a user name are stored in |
| a system directory readable only by the connection |
| mananger. Profiles created with a user name are |
| stored in the user's home directory but readable |
| only by the connection manager. |
| |
| If any existing profile is specified its contents |
| are reset to a default (minimal) contents. If the |
| profile is already registered with a CreateProfile |
| or PushProfile request then an error is returned. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.AlreadyExists |
| |
| object PushProfile(string name) |
| |
| Push the profile with the specified identifier |
| onto the profile stack. The profile must have |
| previously been created with CreateProfile. |
| The profile becomes the ``active profile'' that |
| is searched first when loading data and to which |
| updates are stored. |
| |
| A profile may be pushed only once. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.AlreadyExists |
| |
| object PopProfile(string name) |
| |
| Pop the top-most profile on the profile stack. |
| Any profile beneath this profile becomes the |
| ``active profile''. Any services using configuration |
| from the popped profile are disconnected and the |
| credentials invalidated (the next time |
| credentials are needed they are loaded from the |
| (new) active profile). |
| |
| The name must match the identifer of the active |
| profile. This is a safeguard against accidentally |
| removing the wrong profile. |
| |
| Note it is valid to pop all profiles from the |
| stack; in this state the connection manager does |
| not write any state to persistent storage. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.NotFound |
| |
| object PopAnyProfile() |
| |
| Like PopProfile but do not check the profile on |
| the top of the stack; pop anything. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| |
| void RemoveProfile(string name) |
| |
| Remove the profile with specified identifier. |
| |
| The profile may not be resident on the stack. |
| The default profile may not be removed. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.AlreadyExists |
| |
| void RequestScan(string type) |
| |
| Request a scan for the specified technology. If |
| type is the string "" then a scan request is |
| made for each technology. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| |
| void EnableTechnology(string type) |
| |
| Enable all technologies of the specified type. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.InProgress |
| [service].Error.AlreadyEnabled |
| |
| void DisableTechnology(string type) |
| |
| Disable all technologies of the specified type. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.InProgress |
| [service].Error.AlreadyDisabled |
| |
| void ConfigureService(dict properties) |
| |
| Update the configuration of a service in memory |
| and in the profile. If no service exists in |
| memory it is temporarily created to carry out |
| this work and then removed after saving its |
| configuration to the profle. |
| |
| If a GUID property is specified in properties |
| it is used to find the service; otherwise Type, |
| Security, and type-specific properties such as |
| WiFi.SSID are used to find any existing service. |
| If no service is located in memory a new one is |
| created with the supplied properties. |
| |
| All provided parameters are applied to the in |
| memory service regardless of errors. But if an |
| error occurs while setting a property and the |
| service object was created as a result of this |
| call it is removed. In the event of multiple |
| errors the first error code is returned by |
| this call. |
| |
| See the Service Properties section for a list of |
| properties and constraints on property values. |
| See also GetService. |
| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| [service].Error.NotSupported |
| |
| object GetService(dict properties) |
| |
| Return the object path of a service after |
| applying any requested configuration changes. |
| If no service exists it is created. |
| |
| If a GUID property is specified in properties |
| it is used to find the service; otherwise Type, |
| Security, and type-specific properties such as |
| WiFi.SSID are used to find any existing service. |
| If no service is located in memory a new one is |
| created with the supplied properties. |
| |
| All provided parameters are applied to the service |
| regardless of errors. But if an error occurs |
| while setting a property and the service was |
| created as a result of this call it is removed. |
| In the event of multiple errors the first error |
| code is returned by this call. |

| Get the list of enabled debug tags. The list is |
| represented as a string of tag names separated |
| by "+". |
| |
| string ListDebugTags() |

| in priority ordering. |
| |
| For example, the default ordering would be returned as: |
| "ethernet,bluetooth,wifi,wimax,cellular" |
| |
| void SetServiceOrder(string mask) |
| |
| Set the technology priority based on a provided |
| ','-separated list of technologies, sorted from highest |
| priority to lowest. |
| |
| The list may contain the following services: |
| { ethernet, wifi, wimax, bluetooth, cellular } |

| |
| Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments |
| |
| void RecheckPortal() |
| |
| Retest the portal state of the active service |
| if a check is not currently in progress. This |
| will only have an effect if the active service |
| is currently in the portal state. |
| |
| |
| Signals PropertyChanged(string name, variant value) |
| |
| This signal indicates a changed value of the given |
| property. |
| |
| StateChanged(string state) |
| |
| This signal is similar to the PropertyChanged signal |
| for the State property. |
| |
| It exists for application state only care about the |
| current state and so can avoid to be woken up when |
| other details changes. |
| |
| Properties object ActiveProfile [readwrite] |
| |
| Object path of the current active profile. |
| |
| boolean ArpGateway [readwrite] |
| |
| Specifies whether the DHCP client should be |
| configured to perform the extra step of performing |
| an ARP of the gateway IP address. This provides |
| a level of assurance that the issued IP address is |
| valid and not blocked in some manner unknown by the |
| DHCP server. |
| |
| array{string} AvailableTechnologies [readonly] |
| |
| The list of available technologies. The strings |
| are the same as the ones from the service types. |
| |
| string CheckPortalList [readwrite] |
| |
| The list of technologies for which captive portal |
| checking is enabled. This is a comma-separated |
| string; e.g. "wifi,wimax,vpn". |
| |
| array{string} ConnectedTechnologies [readonly] |
| |
| The list of connected technologies. The strings |
| are the same as the ones from the service type. |
| |
| string Country [readwrite] |
| |
| The ISO 3166 country code. This may not be defined; |
| it is defined if manually set or if it is discovered |
| through a service such as WiFi, Celluar, or GPS. |
| |
| string DefaultTechnology [readonly] |
| |
| The current connected technology which holds the |
| default route. |
| |
| array{object} Devices [readonly] |
| |
| List of device object paths. |
| |
| array{string} EnabledTechnologies [readonly] |
| |
| The list of enabled technologies. The strings |
| are the same as the ones from the service types. |
| |
| string HostName [readwrite] |
| |
| The hostname to be reported in DHCP requests. |
| Some DHCP servers may register a DNS entry on |
| behalf of this hostname; others may just make |
| available a table for administrators to tell |
| what machines are on their network. |
| |
| The default for this name is empty, which |
| means that the system will not report a hostname. |
| |
| string LinkMonitorTechnologies [readwrite] |
| |
| The list of technologies for which thie Link |
| Monitor will be enabled. The Link monitor |
| periodically checks for connectivity to the |
| default gateway using ARP requests. |
| |
| boolean OfflineMode [readwrite] |
| |
| The offline mode indicates the global setting for |
| switching all radios on or off. Changing offline mode |
| to true results in powering down all devices. When |
| leaving offline mode the individual policy of each |
| device decides to switch the radio back on or not. |
| |
| During offline mode, it is still possible to switch |
| certain technologies manually back on. For example |
| the limited usage of WiFi or Bluetooth devices might |
| be allowed in some situations. |
| |
| string PortalURL [readwrite] |
| |
| The URL to use when doing captive portal checking. |
| When a service reaches the "ready" state and |
| captive portal checking is enabled for it; an |
| HTTP GET of this URL is done. If this fails |
| with a 204 error then the service is moved |
| to the "online" state. Otherwise the service |
| is assumed to be not online and marked in a |
| "portal" state. Note that this check may fail |
| for multiple reasons that are indicated in the |
| Error property of the service. |
| |
| int32 PortalCheckInterval [readwrite] |
| |
| The interval in seconds between re-checking a |
| service in the portal state. |
| |
| array{object} Profiles [readonly] |
| |
| List of profile 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. |
| |
| This list represents the available services for the |
| current selected profile. If the profile gets changed |
| then this list will be updated. |
| |
| 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. |
| |
| array{object} ServiceWatchList [readonly] |
| |
| List of service object paths that are in a |
| 'non-idle' state. This indicates the set of services |
| which are currently listed as associating, configuring, |
| or some other state other than idle. This allows a |
| caller to use this property indication to track which |
| services should be monitored for state changes. |
| |
| In particular, services in error states like "failure" |
| and "disconnect" are in the watchlist. |
| |
| The services are listed in the same service sorting |
| order as the "Services" property above, but this |
| property is not considered "changed" if the ordering |
| changes. |
| |
| Changes to this list are batched up for small periods |
| of time, so that batches of changes are collected |
| into a single message containing the final state, and |
| ephemeral changes where the list returns to the |
| previous state are filtered out. |
| |
| Note: Currently shill reports the entire service |
| list, unfiltered. |
| |
| string ShortDNSTimeoutTechnologies [readwrite] |
| |
| The list of technologies for which a short DNS |
| timeout will be used, in order to improve retry |
| performance. This is a comma-separated string; |
| e.g. "wifi,wimax,vpn". |
| |
| 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. |
