Re: Confusing about DBus API specification

ListConnections() method is not provided by /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager 
service, rather /org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSystemSettings and 
org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings.
See inline comments to adapt your script.

add here
proxy1 = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings", 
"/org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings")
for listing user connections or
proxy1 = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSystemSettings", 
"/org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings")
for listing system-wide connections.

You need to use proxy1 here instead of proxy.
settings = dbus.Interface(proxy1, "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSettings")

this line should look like this:
connections = settings.ListConnections()

i.e. using settings interface and no arguments to ListConnections()
