Among the things I forgot : I understand what you explained but I cannot 
figure out a way to make nmcli confirm that the device is not managed.

For instance :

# nmcli -f GENERAL.STATE device show eth1
GENERAL.STATE:                          100 (connected)

I guess the 'connected' hides the 10 (unmanaged) I can see in different 
situations ?

# nmcli device show eth1 | grep -i managed
# <nothing>

?

Thanks
