nmcli-connection: Activate a connection by specifying a UUID.
$ nmcli connection up uuid ${uuid}
try on your machine
The command "nmcli connection up uuid ${uuid}" is used to bring up a NetworkManager connection using its UUID (Universally Unique Identifier).
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "nmcli" is a command-line tool for managing NetworkManager, which is a network connection manager used in many Linux distributions.
- "connection" is a subcommand that deals with managing connections in NetworkManager.
- "up" is the action to activate (bring up) a connection.
- "uuid" is an option to specify that the connection will be identified by its UUID.
- "${uuid}" is a placeholder where the actual UUID value should be provided. This is the UUID of the connection that you want to bring up.
By executing this command with the appropriate UUID value, you can activate a particular network connection managed by NetworkManager.
