NetworkManager Selection and Usage Guide

NetworkManager Selection

NetworkManager is a more powerful alternative to the network service. NetworkManager is used as the mainstream network management tool in the new OS. The network service is more suitable for users who are familiar with command lines and parameter settings, while NetworkManager is more suitable for common users or situations that require automatic network connection management. In most Linux distributions, NetworkManager has become the default network management tool.

NetworkManager and network cannot be used at the same time.
