nmtui: Connect to a given network.
$ nmtui connect ${select}
try on your machine

The command "nmtui connect ${select}" is used to connect to a specific network using the NetworkManager Text User Interface (nmtui) tool.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "nmtui": This is the command to launch the NetworkManager Text User Interface tool.
  • "connect": This is an option within nmtui that tells the tool to initiate a connection to a network.
  • "${select}": This is a variable that represents the network or connection profile you want to connect to. The specific value of this variable should be provided when executing the command.

By replacing "${select}" with the actual name or ID of the network, you can use this command to connect to a specific network using nmtui.
