The "autoconnect" property

  "autoconnect"              gboolean              : Read / Write / Construct

Whether or not the connection should be automatically connected by NetworkManager when the resources for the connection are available. TRUE to automatically activate the connection, FALSE to require manual intervention to activate the connection. Defaults to TRUE.

Default value: TRUE

The "id" property

  "id"                       gchar*                : Read / Write

A human readable unique idenfier for the connection, like "Work WiFi" or "T-Mobile 3G".

Default value: NULL

The "permissions" property

  "permissions"              GSList_gchararray_*   : Read / Write

An array of strings defining what access a given user has to this connection. If this is NULL or empty, all users are allowed to access this connection. Otherwise a user is allowed to access this connection if and only if they are in this list. Each entry is of the form "[type]:[id]:[reserved]", for example:

user:dcbw:blah

At this time only the 'user' [type] is allowed. Any other values are ignored and reserved for future use. [id] is the username that this permission refers to, which may not contain the ':' character. Any [reserved] information present must be ignored and is reserved for future use. All of [type], [id], and [reserved] must be valid UTF-8.

The "read-only" property

  "read-only"                gboolean              : Read / Write / Construct

TRUE if the connection can be modified using the providing settings service's D-Bus interface with the right privileges, or FALSE if the connection is read-only and cannot be modified.

Default value: FALSE

The "timestamp" property

  "timestamp"                guint64               : Read / Write / Construct

The time, in seconds since the Unix Epoch, that the connection was last _successfully_ fully activated.

Default value: 0

The "type" property

  "type"                     gchar*                : Read / Write

The general hardware type of the device used for the network connection, contains the name of the NMSetting object that describes that hardware type's parameters. For example, for WiFi devices, the name of the NMSettingWireless setting.

Default value: NULL

The "uuid" property

  "uuid"                     gchar*                : Read / Write

A universally unique idenfier for the connection, for example generated with libuuid. Should be assigned when the connection is created, and never changed as long as the connection still applies to the same network. For example, should not be changed when the "id" or NMSettingIP4Config changes, but might need to be re-created when the WiFi SSID, mobile broadband network provider, or "type" changes.

The UUID must be in the format '2815492f-7e56-435e-b2e9-246bd7cdc664' (ie, contains only hexadecimal characters and '-'). A suitable UUID may be generated by nm_utils_uuid_generate() or nm_utils_uuid_generate_from_string().

Default value: NULL
