Dec 16, 2021 at 7:58 comment added Martin Kealey nmcli actively removed some valid options around the 1.0 release, which was a right pain because I had to modify a bunch of scripts that relied on the old behaviour. Who in their right mind changes an API and breaks stuff for no useful reason?
Mar 19, 2020 at 11:17 comment added cloudlena I'm using version 1.22.10 and there the command to list connections is simply nmcli con.
Oct 7, 2015 at 10:28 comment added Anders My version is 1.0.0, don't know if that is an earlier version of nmcli or not, but I would assume it is newer.
Oct 7, 2015 at 9:46 comment added Dmitry Grigoryev It's strange that nmcli con list is not supported on your system. I have nmcli version 0.9.4.0 which is quite old but supports the list command, and Debian stable is already at 0.9.10.0. Chances are, your problem may be fixed by a simple upgrade.
Oct 7, 2015 at 9:36 comment added Anders But I ran nmcli con | grep eth1 and I have set up a connection for eth1, but I get the following error when trying nmcli con up eth1: Error: Connection activation failed: Connection 'eth1' is not available on the device eth1 at this time.
Oct 7, 2015 at 9:28 comment added Anders Thank you for your input. It is not the first option as I am unable to get a connection even when I have just booted up, and restarting the service changes nothing. As for the second option, I am unable to run the command as nmcli states that 'list' is not a valid 'connection' command.
