31 <application>NetworkManager</application> is a set of co-operative
32 tools that make networking simple and straightforward. Whether you use WiFi,
33 wired, 3G, or Bluetooth, NetworkManager allows you to quickly move from
34 one network to another: Once a network has been configured and joined
35 once, it can be detected and re-joined automatically the next time it's
36 available.

145 <!-- Ethernet Teaming support is potentially optional, but I didn't
146 run the tests again to test that. It was needed to convince one of
147 the Linux Platform tests to move farther along because otherwise
148 RTNETLINK would respond with an Error 95 - unknown device type.
149 This would cause the test to fail early on in the process.
150
151 [pierre, Nov 2022]: I cannot tell whether these options are
152 the only ones that are needed. They are the options I had to add
153 in order to have some tests pass. But I already had some other
154 options set for packet filtering (iptables), that may not be
155 available by default and may be necessary. Even with the options
156 below still one test (test-route) fails.-->
