Thanks for reply. It seems that your suggestion is working fine and
when set autoconnect to false then I need to manually start connection
so it is exactly what I need.
One more question maybe. When I set some configuration for e.g. wifi
network it is possible to overwrite existing connection configuration?
I tried to use same name for connection but it seems that NM always
create new one with UUID at the end.
It is possible somehow to delete previous configuration (stored in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/? I basically always want to
use only one even user will setup connection to 2 different wifi
networks. I'm using libnm for my program. Thanks.
