3.2.1. NetworkManager improvements including a command line interface

NetworkManager in Fedora 13 features the following major improvements:
  • support for older Bluetooth dial-up networking, and features a command line interface and better signal strength indicators. The dial-up modem support for older Bluetooth-equipped phones complements the personal-area networking already supported in Fedora. After pairing your phone, simply check the Access the Internet using your mobile phone option and select your mobile operator.
  • command-line integration, though the nmcli utility. This feature finally makes NetworkManager available to command-line users. Access to NetworkManager from the command line is also useful to users who operate in text mode to conserve power, for example, while traveling.
  • mobile broadband signal strength and roaming status is now shown in the network status icon for many mobile broadband cards.
